Now it is ok )
It looks like the page was corrected. Previuos version gave us only 1 quota for men singles.

I don't think we will know until they publish something, so far nothing. We also don't know if all the russian (or AIN) athletes can qualify, or just one per event like in other sports. Hopefully they will tell us soon.

According to the qualification document, it's the same point system as the World Cup.

See post #30 above, there is a link to the rules.

Yeah I saw this document but I can't find answer on that. That document only show what starts are counting but there are no annexs with points

So if it is correct, than according to the rules, right now AIN have 2 quotas in the singles, because if I understand system correct, 7 countries with best athletes second ranks in OWGQL can entry 2 quotas.

 

So, in women's singles 7 best countries with 7 second ranks are Germany, Austria, Italy, Latvia, United States, Canada and then AIN in 7th place.

 

In men's singles 7 best countries are Austria, Latvia, Germany, Italy, Ukraine, United States and again AIN is seventh

For example they gave China two quotas in Women's singles. How?  Even best athlete from China have rank lower than second AIN's athlete

So you believe that AIN is an NOC, not individuals competing? You could be right, the FIL has published no communication or rules on how they are handling them. We will have to wait until they publish an Olympic qualifying standing to know for sure I suppose.

Yes because there are no special rules about AIN and FIL allowed to compete not only in qualification starts, they are allowed to compete in any FIL starts and moreover with 3 entries, not one. I think it's like in tennis - all rights and obligitations as NOC but without flag

The comparison to tennis is a good point.

    • Thank you! And I wish  win your medals at these Games and continue medal streak! For us even one medal will mark the Games as successfull.  
    • Trump will attack Iran soon , maybe tonight   
    • Yep, that was really unfortunate, but well, such things happens. Anyway this amount of lugers is really impressive.   Congrats and good luck at the Games
    • Yeah, Qualifying a team for the summer olympics is completely out of the question. Not going to happen for a long time. In Sydney 2000 we had 3 teams W Basketball, M Football & M Water Polo, it was already insane and this was even in a totally different era. Nowadays it is just Utopian. We have none to be at a high level in Europe to aspire for a qualification to the Olympics.   W Handball is really the most obvious chance in a long shot. The U17 girls showed last summer that it is possible, who knows maybe in Brisbane if the planets allign well.    Paris 2024 was a nightmare I do not want to remember. The worst games I experienced in my life. point.
    • Khm, do we know the fate of the  license in pairs? I did not see confirmation of their entry.   If they fail  must get full license (team + individual) and one more place for team event will be available, am I correct?
    • Honestly, we did not expect more than 8. 2 additional places happened just becaues your double could not grab it due to the injury(?).
    • Vivat Slovakia    But in all seriousness, it's been repeatedly stated how important it is to qualify in a team event for the next Summer Olympics. However, I have no idea if we even have a realistic chance.   We only have one fewer individual athlete competing this year than we did in Paris, so individual quota spots aren't the main issue. Where can we find a competitive team, like we do in hockey? Maybe the women's handball team could start something big, but that's still far in the future, very likely unachievable in just two years.   And to be clear, as horrific as our medal tally from Paris looked, those were some of the unluckiest Olympics for Slovakia I have ever seen. Finishing in the top six seven times (!) is absolutely insane.
    • Biathlon (6 - 2W; 4M)   Anastasia Tolmacheva Andreea Mezdrea (our media put her in)   George Buta Raul Flore Dmitri Shamaev George Coltea   Bobsleigh (4M + 1 reserve)   Constantin Dinescu George Iordache Mihai Păcioianu Mihai Tentea     Figure Skating (1W)   Julia Sauter - flag bearer       Luge (7 - 3W; 4M)   Corina Buzatoiu Carmen Manolescu Raluca Stramaturaru   Denis Serban Marian Gîtlan Eduard Craciun Valentin Cretu     Ski Jumping (4 - 2W; 2M)   Delia Floea Daniela Haralambie   Daniel Cacina Mihnea Spulber   Alpine skiing (2 - 1W; 1M)   Sofia Moldovan   Alexandru Stefanescu   Nordic skiing (3 - 1W; 2M)   Delia Reit   Paul Pepene Gabriel Cojocaru   Snowboard (2W)   Kata Mandel Henrietta Bartalis   For me it’s a very special edition because two of my friends (Edi Craciun and Gabi Cojocaru) made it. So fingers crossed for them and for the whole delegation.   We don’t expect to much as usual in winter games (1-2 top 10 - luge team, women’s doubles luge, 2man bobsleigh, and maybe Julia Sauter if she will skate clean both programs)
