Guys, with everyone out here giving their predictions, would anyone be interested in a purely India-centric prediction game ??? (Hopefully, the mods wont have any issue with it)

 

I say we keep it simple and pick a fantasy team of 15 Indian athletes/teams...and then see whose fantasy team does best. For athletes competing in multiple events, you have to specify the event too. So Jitu Rai in 10m air pistol and Jitu Rai in 50m air pistol is 2 different athletes - u can pick both in ur 15, u can pick 1 or u can pick none.

 

Scoring system:

GOLD - 25 points

SILVER - 15 points

BRONZE - 10 points

4th place - 4 points

Top-8 finish - 2 points

 

You also choose a captain and a vice-captain within your team. Captain scores double points, vice captain scores 1.5x points.

 

Anyone interested ???

Good Idea...I think we need to post more results over here. I used to get results first her, But now I am getting from out and don't find the results here at all. we are ignoring more events going on.

it has to happen, atlast it will break the ice and we may see others who are missing quota will qualify for Rio too. Still hopeful for 120...

[Vivek 6]

In APB and WSB Olympic Qualifier, Vargas, Venezuela, only Pro Boxers fro those country will participate who have not won the quota. I think many of the Boxing powerhouses have already achieved the quota, so will it be easy for India to achieve quota at Vargas. I think it will be some how only as difficult as at Baku, not more than that. We may just see it as another opportunity for our boxers to win quota.

Any Guess, who will be the lucky player to win 100th quota for India for RIO2016.

Its 11.30s I think...Can imagine the excitement we are all going through. It means a lot to have a sprinter in the Olympics.
