Almost nothing good happned for :POL today, so, I would choose 2 or even 1, but I choosed 3 as we have medal in slalom canoeing and it's close to have medal in boxing... I changed my photo for Natalia Kochańska who qualified for 50m rifle 3 postions final, with hope that she will win medal, just like she did it in European Games, I hope it will work.

Bumping it up to an 8 from a 7 last poll, everyday that goes by I just get more giddy that the Olympics are happening.

 

Probably the higher score also has something to do with a 7 hour flight I’m getting on tomorrow.

Horrible day for :IND

Starting with poor performance from race-walkers. Although we added a medal our three genuine medal contenders - Nikhat Zareen (Boxing W50kg), Sift Kaur (Shooting 50m3p W) and Satwik-Chirag (Badminton MD) were knocked out so was our two time medalist PV Sindhu although nothing was expected from her. Other poor result includes losing to :BEL in Hockey

I don't know where else to write this:

 

People in :GUA are going crazy for the winners (I can't wait to see how the names "Adriana" and "Jean Pierre" climb on the list of most common names for babies in 2024, :roflmao:)

 

Already there are songs and poem written about the medalists, the government and private sector had stated congratulations to both medal winners.

 

Businnes all over the country have stated gifts for the medal winners: 1, 3 and 4 years of food at restaurants, 1 year free gasoline for Adriana, free flights all over the country, spa, nails, hair services for free mostly for Adriana, hehe. Even people on radio saying that they will cook the Christmas tamales for both winners for free, or free "tuk tuk" rides from one moto taxi owner in a small town. People are happy, you could see it on the streets and listening to conversations about it. Happy news are good for Guatemalans right now.  I hope all medal winners get that treatment in their countries, or at least at their cities or towns. 

 

No word yet about how much the medal winners will get as a cash reward from Government and NOC. Will see.

How to answer? As a Pole i have to separate Paris Games (9) - i was sure of it - and Poles in Paris (3 as for today). Until tuesday it was 6 for us imo, now...for now...no comments for last 3 days with exception of boxing. 

I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it

    • Oh the Tour de Ski Overall counts as well? That would explain the discrepancies then .   I'm sure Brazil will be in the top 30 in the end given the top 3 athletes are scored and they have better depth than some of the countries at the bottom of the rankings.
    • Awesome, thanks! I've been tracking the women's list as well (because of Brazil, obviously), and I believe I have some different numbers. I'll post it later, because I am very curious where I made some mistakes.   You counted the Tour de Ski overall standings for example, I think? I hadn't done that yet, but started realizing I probably need to.   Still in time, since only from today on (with the junior sprint) it starts to get real interesting in terms of the top-30 and so a potential extra Olympic ticket     As for Brazil, it'll mostly be interesting to see if their 2 junior girls, 3 U23 girls and 3-4 women at the world championships (including a team sprint and relay) will beat out Taipei, Andorra and Armenia, who have 1 athlete who is better than every Brazilian, but don't really have a 2nd, let alone a 3rd athlete. I'd have to consult my other list, but off the top of my head other countries to look out for should be Argentina, Croatia, Great Britain, Spain (unless they decide not to focus on it, which I think might be the case given that their best competed at home yesterday and aren't in Schilpario) and a few others.   Also, China will absolutely be on this list. They started the season with no FIS points at all, I guess hadn't competed since Beijing, but already destroyed the points for a few races in Norway (by being in the top-5 while not having any FIS points). Their absence in recent years means they'll compete in the qualifying 7.5k in Trondheim in the world championships, since they don't qualify directly, which then will mean they'll destroy the points there as well, like Baiba Bendika did in Oberstdorf (which led to FIS changing it's qualifying rules ).   Oh well, interesting weeks ahead, I already can't count the number of hours I have spent on this (rankings, calculations, and so on) both on my laptop and in my mind!
    • My conclusion for this tournament:   Best team   Exceptional performance     Worst performance     Weak teams who did better than expected     unlucky teams          
    • Cross-Country Skiing NOC Quota Standings as of February 2nd   These are the quotas that get allocated to NOCs after the basic quota (1 male + 1 female) is allocated to NOC's who have athletes that have the required amount of points. These standings are NOT the same as the World Cup Nations Cup. The Nations cup only gives points to the top 30 athletes in a race while the Olympic rankings give points to every athlete which partakes in a race and also includes World Championships and World Junior Championships results. I attempted to calculate the standings using this document as I don't believe the list has been made public yet.   4 quotas 3 quotas 2 quotas 1 quota   Men   Rank NOC Points 1 Norway 13185 2 Sweden 9254 3 France 8930 4 Finland 7746 5 United States 7291 6 Italy 6442 7 Germany 6336 8 Switzerland 6145 9 Czechia 4144 10 Canada 4037 11 Austria 4035 12 Great Britain 3434 13 Slovenia 3164 14 Estonia 3007 15 Australia 2129 16 Japan 1587 17 Latvia 1568 18 Poland 1441 19 Kazakhstan 1246 20 Andorra 1170 21 Spain 1170 22 Ireland 1161 23 Hungary 812 24 Ukraine 712 25 China 621 26 Thailand 336 27  Armenia 276 28 Romania 266 29 Slovakia 217 30  Bulgaria 193 31 Mongolia 137 32 Serbia 131 33 Argentina 118 34 Korea 115 35 Croatia 97 36 Chile 80 37 Colombia 76 38 North Macedonia 47 39 Lithuania 47 40 Belgium 45 41  Liechtenstein 39   Women   Rank NOC Points 1 Norway 12310 2 Sweden 10634 3 Finland 9539 4 Germany 9529 5 United States 8562 6 Switzerland 6329 7 France 5039 8 Italy 4680 9 Canada 4533 10 Czechia 4298 11 Austria 3636 12 Estonia 2190 13 Slovenia 1885 14 Kazakhstan 1677 15 Ukraine 1304 16 Australia 1203 17 Poland 588 18  Japan 510 19 Latvia 442 20 Chinese Taipei 194 21 Andorra 183 22 Armenia 131 23 Korea 122
    • That's good, and looking down on that page it seems like it will be available to watch on-demand as well. Which I think is arguably even more important for a streaming platform and which is why YouTube usually beats out every other way of live streaming  
    • They did, and so did their Pairs figure skating team and speed skater. 
    • A close match nonetheless!  gets their men's ice hockey campaign off to a successful start in Group B.
    • Uzbekistan may be able to get a medal in short track. I believe both of their athletes used to compete for Russia.
    • And competition has officially started.
    • End of an era 🫡   (being a *bit* tongue in cheek here :P )
