Interesting, this is becoming like one of those family shows where they reunite divorced parents.

Ridiculous. At least let them march with both flags. In 2006 it was awkward to see one flag and 2 bearers trying to share lol

Cool

 

Since this is the first Olympics where I actually personally know someone who competes (two athletes even), I'll ask them to help me/us out with finding out which countries are in which buildings, with photos of flags out of the windows and stuff

Awesome, that's a progress since Rio. This time we have our own detectives in the village!

Too bad the wrong woman qualified in cross-country, because I know my girlfriend enjoyed this flag hunt at the Winter Universiade last year and she'd probably run around the entire village to find as many flags as possible, but alright, let's see how far we can get

IOC reveiled the so-called Conduct guidelines for Russians Olympic Athletes from Russia in PC 2018 https://stillmed.olympic.org/media/Document Library/OlympicOrg/News/2018/01/OAR-Conduct-Guidelines.pdf (they even can not sing their national anthem inside the venue - which in fact literaly means Kovalchuk will not be able to sing the anthem after receiving eventual gold, this was his main goal, after all the OAR thing was official  https://www.rt.com/sport/412101-russia-olympic-ban-hockey-kovalchuk/ )

 

btw Danka Barteková was selected as one of the monitoring unit. this unit will be led by Pere Miro and Kit McConell (the monitoring unit members are here https://www.olympic.org/news/ioc-issues-conduct-guidelines-for-olympic-athlete-from-russia-delegation )
