I have asked for it and apparently they will never upload Eventing and Jumping

Is the jumping uploaded ? I can not find them either in the software they are using.

Yes, all the sessions will be available right after the end of the Olympic Games, if things go smooth even from Sunday February 25th Apart from USA which is geoblocked for the first 10 days. Source: me as I am working for them during these days

I think it was..Morgan ?

Both rybak and me remember it: your nickname was SwissFlag

No, I think Nathy was SwissFlag.

Yeah, both @Nathy and @Morgan already were with us in the old forum

I have already done that during Rio 2016, I will be an editorial support for the team who is producing daily highlights. Most of them are great in their job or producing videos but do not know if Biathlon is a sport or a food or if Skeleton is also something else apart a group of bones

I am working for the Olympic Channel as a freelance and my daily shift is 4am-2pm

Also, a problem of the still flags (and it's the reason why I decided to use the animated flags back then) is that we have a completely white background here so the flags with a lot of white get mixed with the background. Examples: And take into account in the results portal there is not even the edge around the flag so you do not even realize where the flag ends.

You can add any kind of image you want, so whenever you want you can use other kind of flags like: But we are talking about which ones to be the "standard" flags, which are uploaded on Totallympics and so they have 2 important features: 1) A shortcut can be used, which now is :+IOC country code and you will have the flag in your post 2) They will never go down until Totallympics will not be down. Which is very important because if you rely on a third party website, if that website will go down one day you will not be able to see the flag on Totallympics anymore.

Do you mean the animated flags look old ? We can discuss about a new set of flag in the future, I thought the animated ones are the best but I am so used to see them that I did not even thing about any other set

Added, the shortcut is : IOC (without space)

Yeah, toxic is the right word With "personal" I didn't mean you were personally insulting each others but you were in a discussion which was not of public interest. @dcro A total of 6 posts have been deleted, no other mods deleted anything else:

I have deleted 5 posts of a private conversation between Dimast and De Gambassi which was becoming a dangerous discussion and completely private between the two users. Are you talking about those posts or other mods have deleted other posts ?

@Dimast @De_Gambassi Ok guys, enough. You have your own ideas and none of you will be able to convince the other, so if you want to go on your discussion do it through Private Message, if you want to stop it, there is always the "Ignore" button on the users you do not want to read posts

Yeah, I have just added the Sochi 2014 medallist nations and added some with a realistic chance of a medal. Any country can be added as well as removed anyime

I have fixed the post but I can not remove the maximum 75 emoticons per post limit, for future additions instead of adding the flag manually, copy it from another thread (for example the 2016 team sizes thread, where there are all the flags you need )

They could be a problem because someone anyway will have to decide whether any news "deserve" a thread or should go in the discussion thread. To avoid users wake up in the morning and open a thread about what they ate for breakfast. Anyway, latest replies box increased to 12 threads for the moment, we might upgrade to 15 in the future.

Number of threads have nothing to do with the memory used in the database. Another factor to take in mind anyway is that most of the users open the thread from the "latest replies" box at the top of the home page. So a higher number of threads opened also means that other threads will disappear from the latest replies box. And once a thread opened for a news disappear from the latest replies block very few users will see it. The number of the latest replies is right now 10 threads, it can be changed to whatever number so maybe in the future we could increase to 12 or 15 threads, but not too much otherwise the home page becomes too long to scroll down.

Yeah, as Dolby said, I could add it but it would be useless because latest update does not mean latest reply, and the block only accepts latest replies, not latest edited posts. So it would work for some individual sports like Athletics and Swimming (1 event: 1 post after the end of the event), but not for team sports where the schedule is all posted in advance and then the post is just updated. And also for sports with draws (tennis, table tennis, fighting sports etc), because we post the template of the empty draws in advance and then just update the post. Anyway I plan to start again the weekly calendar sooner or later, hopefully it will be sooner than later

Yes, and here is the direct link.
