Supporting Small and Exotic Nations at the Summer Olympic Games 2016


Recommended Posts

If :PAK had their Hockey team I'd support them without a doubt like I always did, but in this case I'll just go with nearby :TKM

same choice here

:PLE Palestine

:WSHSahrawi Arab Democratic Republic

:COMComores

 + maldives :MDV

Palestine is already taken because Malik had it as his first choice, so do you accept it if I write down Comores for you? Nobody has chosen Comores as 1st choice yet :)

I've updated the list and I think I didn't miss anything.

 

A few notes:

 

- hckosice, do you want Nicaragua as 2nd choice as long as nobody else takes them or will you go full focus on Ecuador? :d 

- Malik and bestmen, I did not include SADR in the list. It's nothing personal and nothing political, it's just that they are not a nation competing in Rio :p If they compete in Tokyo 2020, you would of course be completely welcome to support them in this thread :)

- To clarify: countries that have (1st choice) behind them are definitely taken, just like countries that only have a username behind them (like mine or Agger, one choice). Countries which are a 2nd or 3rd choice are still available if you want them as your first choice :) 

 

Wonderful to see so many people participating in this in a matter of hours already :clap:

I'm a huge fan of FIJI rugby 7's team. The VINAKA Boys are the best !:FIJ  If Samoa :SAMwill qualify - i'll suport them too !

Would you have a problem if I write Samoa down as your 1st choice? Because Fiji is very likely going to have over 50 athletes so it's almost not eligible anymore :p 

 

However, if you're really clear about specifically wanting Fiji, that shouldn't be a problem :)

I'll take Saint Lucia as my first choice, as I had a chance to visit the beautiful country last year and loved it! :LCA

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
