yes really strange situation indeed. I wonder why they still didn´t unveiled the official schedule, we are 11 days to go, during previous editions we have already knew the complete schedules few weeks/months before, and here the world even still doesn´t know when the opening ceremony will start :d

 

our TV also scheduled the start of OC boadcast at 00:55 cet, but another channel with the rights Nova Sport and the czech TV at 23:55 as well :lol:

Nova sport shows 22:55 and czech tv 22:00 :-)

yes now I see it...well, even better :lol: but still I think 22:00 for ČT is probably for the studio, like last editions, with some returns to London 2012 medalist etc..?

At 19:15 (local time) should start a "preliminary show", I believe it is to warm up the audience. But the main and official opening ceremony will start at 20:00 (local time)

and for Nova Sport at 04:00 and STV 05:00 :lol: what a mess...

but I think the ČT schedule should be the correct one, as I know your TV coverage from olympics is usually great and profesional.

 

I just don´t understand the fabulous idea of our TV to postpone the olympic studio at midnight and the opening ceremony at 1 am because they suddenly got a idea that a James Bond film from 1969 or so will be the best option at 22:10, when the whole planet is preparing for the Olympic Games  https://www.rtvs.sk/televizia/tv-program?date=2016-08-05  just scroll down :lol:

It starts at 20:00 Brazil time apparently, so you can still watch all of it. James Bond, studio and ceremony. :d

 

Our broadcaster also put 1:00 as the start time.

yeah, well to be honest I really don´t care so much about Sean Connery or James Bond especially in such important and memorable day :d

 

but back to topic. i hope you´re right, because I want to watch it also commented. ok, well even if it start earlier it will not be such a big problem, according our TV they will have a microsite during the games with 8 livestreams 24h per day, so as I know myself I´ll watch TV very rarely  :d but the opening ceremony no, it´s something I want always watch live and commented

In the brazilian forum on skyscrapercity, there's a whole thread with BIG spoilers about the opening ceremony, including photos. We already know about a lot of things that will happen, but I'm not gonna post it here (maybe someone will). :p

 

The main reason this thread was opened was to discuss the ceremonies while they're happening.

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
