If Centuries start on zero, then decades also must start on zero (and they do). :p

 

Otherwise...

Another one who can't count from 1 to 10! :mumble: How about 1 to 1000?

Best sports moments of the decade thread - where we can discuss anything from geopolitical history to IndyCar racing, as long as it has nothing to do with the best sports moments of the decade.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Lol, no.

 

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. That's 10 numbers - 10 years.

So is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Huh what? Zonderland was in 2012, I really don't see how that falls outside of the decade in any way whatsoever :lol:

 

Plus, it is just generally accepted the decades start at 0. The fifties didn't start in 1951, the eighties started in 1980, and so on.

That's a fine essay. I understand you're an ideallistic teenager willing to fight anyone over anything. Gregorian calendar isn't up for debate though, sorry my friend. Some wiser people have decided that discussion for us long before time - well, in 16th century (plus simple maths and the fact Year 0 never happened). The status of Pluto is up for debate instead. You can talk whether it's a planet or a dwarf planet (I kinda don't care as astronomy is not my thing) and put an opinion forward.

 

I know you can tell a difference between Africa and actual countries but it's the classic stereotype you're following. You don't have to pretend Americans aren't narcisstic enough :p You elected the biggest narcisstic guy as President after all.

Yes, when I think of intelligence I immediately think of the century where half the world still thought Satan caused mental illness, where spirits where probably real, when I could get a leeching, and when people where still debating if the Earth orbited the sun.

I ended the 2007-2016 decade a while ago indeed.

I just know either your or @dcro would say this :lol:. Technically that decade would have been 2006-2016 using the method everyone seems to think is correct.

Columbus sailed to Haiti and thought he was in India. He must have not known a thing about intelligence either? You still have some statues of this schmuck in there? :raspberry:

    • Judging always takes two or three minutes in these competitions - longer even for possible medal runs - for reasons above, so just saying DNI is a way of saying it's not worth comparing a fall on the third hit to a fall on the fourth hit since neither are going to affect the overall.  
    • Scoring in all these events is a bit strange as they are not judging a pre-defined move to an absolute standard, as happens in diving, gymnastics etc, but are constantly shuffling around trying to score riders relative not only to each other, but to that riders' previous runs earlier in the competition and qualifying.  
    • Slovak Entry     Team  -  Prievan v peňaženke (Empty Wallet or literal translation"draught in the wallet")   Time for some retro-Rockl...   One of the most famous pre and post communism fall era, The Bratislava band Team led by its unique and charismatic singer Pavol Habera who was extremely popular during the most important period of our and czech history around the communism end in 1989. His band survived the hard censure of the regime and produced many, many and Many hits in this period.   Nowadays much older the lads are still playing however with slight softening of the original music style. Habera was also quite famous as Simon Cowell-style judge in the czechoslovak version of American Idol in the previous decade.   The song I picked was and is still a sort of a unofficial anthem of young people, I guess the majority of us knew this feeling about having constantly an empty wallet   but, without further ado, here is the 1989 song Prievan v peňaženke from Team, hope some of you will enjoy it     Lyrics       Lyrics   I guess it takes a special talent To be always running dry with money No use wasting any more words I'm one of those soft-hearted folks Who are always penniless   I'm a faithful friend to every bank But there's still no cash in my wallet Just a ten-penny coin, long time non-valid The sad end of payslip days   My wallet is always empty I lose bank notes by the pound My wallet is always empty I can hear their distant laughter…   There might be a Bermuda triangle in my wallet I can’t win this fight against nature My blood pressure is low and my salary follows suit My pockets are empty like those of a big-beat fan   My wallet is always empty I lose bank notes by the pound My wallet is always empty I can hear their distant laughter…   I'm the ultimate currency expert No success in my wallet Hey, bro ! could you lend me a twenty ? I'll be happy to return it later!   (Maybe!)   My wallet is always empty I lose bank notes by the pound My wallet is always empty I can hear their distant laughter… I guess it takes a special talent To be always running dry with money1 No use wasting any more words I’m one of those soft-hearted folks Who are always penniless I’m a faithful friend to every bank But there’s still litt https://lyricstranslate.com/en/prievan-v-pe%C5%88a%C5%BEenke-empty-wallet.html

Of course, none of this is official as only the federation can confirm who qualified. 
    • swept all three events: open, women's and mixed 
    • That's completely ridiculous, and another reason to get rid of it from Olympics.   But, to be fair, the WDSF Breaking rankings were quite precise during Olympic Qualification. They weren't clear about how the quota would be given, but imo, they find a good way to distribute the points.

    • There will be a little more downtime for multi-sports games fanatics like myself. The ISF has something next month, but the schedule is pretty empty until December (2024) and January (2025).
