Kórnik Castle The current look of the castle resembles Gothic Revival architecture, one of the popular historicising styles in the 19th century. The main entrance to the castle is located at the northern side. Its characteristic feature is a four-centred arch at the top of the window above the entrance. Up until the interwar period the castle was entered through the so-called babiniec - a barbican-shaped chamber which was subsequently demolished in the years 1925–1939. The western side of the castle features an expanded terrace overlooking Lake Kórnik. The s8 points

Breaking News Due to rapidly raising of new coronavirus cases in Poland, organizing committee made a hearthbreaking but necessary decision about postponing Grand Final of TAISC 2021 which was scheduled for April 17th, about a year, to April 2022. We all known that health and life are the most important things, right now inviting your everyone to Poland wouldn't be safe for anyone. But we are hoping that until next year, world will come back to normal, thanks to vaccine and social distancing. Organizing committee express the hope for understanding from every competing nation.6 points -

I'm honestly surprised now that I voted so quickly this year, usually I tend to take more time. As a completely wild guess, I think the other 4 nations are probably Poland, France with Benolympique, then Earlywoodu for the Netherlands, since they posted the song first this year (perhaps a new year's resolution?), Spain only gave a 12, so the hosts are waiting for the rest of the points before they highlight them green and lastly Tunisia as the lone African representative have gathered the points from all over Africa, including Mali, South Africa, Kenya, Algeria, Morocco, Cote De I5 points -

The season has ended and I'm back traditionally with some medal table stats. Norway blew everyone out of the water this year, with 83 podium finishes in all and 38 of them were gold. This is miles better compared to 2019/20 season where Norway had 55 podium finishes with 32 gold medals. It seems that Norway compensated mostly with silvers and bronzes and were met with huge success in both the men's and the women's side with 8 different Norwegian athletes getting on the podium at some point and 7 of them scoring wins as well.
