Yes and PDFs work perfectly fine for that and is a lot less work. I mean, sure, copy-paste away to those who like doing it of course, I just think the time can be spent in a gazillion more valuable and useful ways. Then again, one should of course decide on their own what to spend their time on If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I love the idea of having the results available here as it will be useful for me personally. I used to contribute when I could on the old forum but I don't have time to spend on adhering to strict formats, and I view my free time as more precious these days. But I am definitely all for this idea even if I cannot contribute myself Sindo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vojthas 947 Posted January 2, 2020 #524 Share Posted January 2, 2020 The thing is not every federation publishes results in PDF - for example in modern pentathlon it doesn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,470 Posted January 2, 2020 #525 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I’m down to post PDFs of multi-sports games. We would need to save them to the website however, and that would require an insane amount of storage. That’s why @Sindo wants tables (or at least some format) other results. My problem is that I find tables quite hard to use. So neither system really works for me. That’s my point of view. I also think it would be awesome to have an all-in-one results place though. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

This is not necessary because I am posting results on the results portal to test some things. It is actually really quick to post results and you can see an example here https://results.totallympics.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2768&extra=page%3D1 Olympian1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,470 Posted January 15, 2020 #528 Share Posted January 15, 2020 @Sindo I recommend adding a search function, so I could put in a name like “Adam Hofstedt” and scroll through the various posts (results) that include a particular athlete. It would also be nice to search other things like “Individual 10km”, or “2020 Youth Olympics”, etc. Sindo 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,470 Posted January 17, 2020 #529 Share Posted January 17, 2020 @Sindo Any interest in past results? I’d be willing to contribute as always. I have multi-sports games results from 2013-2020, but I can also find some from 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2005. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
