No signal from @Dnl @Fly_like_a_don @Illya and @dophuquy if they will vote before end of deadline Did you guys remember about it? PS. I will send my votes in hour or two, I just need to decide about correct order. But I already feel sad about songs which will end up as reserves, I truly wanted give the points to 21 songs

Again YouTube suggested me something weird, what the hell

Warsaw would need to have at least two if not three more halls for indoor sports, Torwar would need to be renovated, Skra stadium could be finally renovated as well, beacause it's shame that Poland, such good nation in European athletics doesn't have any appropriate for big events athletics stadium in capital city... Also new tennis center and swimming pool should be build too, as Warszwianka's tennis courts aren't enough big and new, same about current swimming pool in the complex, it could be used for water polo, diving and artistic swimming, but not in general swimming. For all of this the city wouldn't have funds at all, so, I sadly don't see chance to Olympics being held in Poland, even though it would take place 14 years from now.

I just read that if next year European Games will be successfull then will want bid for hosting 2036 Games, one of arguments is that in that year we will be in better economic situation than Barcelona was in 1992 and Athens in 2004

As expected also and won't return either and wasn't invited. After all 37 countries will compete in 2023 contest, same number as in 2014.

Then @Benolympique, you have 48 hours left to vote

2 days (48 hours) left to vote: @brunamoura @titicow @vinipereira @Federer91 @intoronto @Wumo @thepharoah @Bohemia (I guess) @catgamer @Dragon @Quasit @Cinnamon Bun @Makedonas @Yannakis @maestro @Fly_like_a_don @Dnl @Gianlu33 (I guess) @Glen @mrv86 @Ionoutz24 @heywoodu @rybak (yes, I tagged myself ) @NikolaB @justony @amen09 @Illya @Olympian1010 (I guess) @Argenis Gonzalez @dophuquy With this amount of remaining users to vote I'm afraid about another extension of deadline or massive amount of DSQ's

That's interesting what this REALLY means.

Third listen completed, top2 is now safe, 16 songs still remain for another 10 free spots.

Yes, it's good drink

Kofola is available to buy in Poland's Lidl's

I don't know if it was mentioned before but IBU also extended their ban for both countries, so, we will not see their biathletes in this winter too.

Same here... I eliminated just 8 songs after first listen and one more after second....

I think that there is no chance for Kazakhstan to be in adult contest anytime soon, as Kazakh television tried to compete in the contest regulary since 2017 but EBU every time says no for them, I doubt that current situation will change anything, sadly.

The official sports programm (the final one, I'm hoping) being presented today and includes 28 sports (sadly without being popular here volleyball and also without rowing, wrestling and for the first time without any gymnastics sport). Sports which will be part of Paris Olympics qualification event: Archery Artistic swimming (which will be also European Championships) Athletics (also Team European Championships for all divisions) Badminton (also EC) Basketball 3x3 Boxing BMX Cycling (also EC) Breaking Canoeing slalom (also EC) Diving (also EC) Fencing (also EC) Judo (also Team European Championships) Modern Pentathlon (also EC) MTB Cycling (also EC) Rugby sevens Shooting Table tennis Taekwondo Triathlon Other sports which will not offer Olympic quotas or non-Olympic sports: Beach football Beach handball Canoeing sprint (also EC) Kickboxing Mountain running Padel Sport climbing Summer ski jumping Teqball (also EC)

@Hipooo How many countries did already voted?

There still can be more withdrawals as Armenia, Czechia and Moldova didnt confirm their participation. While Armenia might not saying anything yet because they are focused in hosting JESC, then Im afraid of Moldova and especially Czechia who always confirm their participation and selections method early... With one more withdrawal we will have the lowest number of competing countries since introduction of semifinals... If all three mentioned aboved countries will compete then we will have 37 nations, which equal low number of 2014 contest. Ironicaly soon later Ukraine, exactly Crimea was invaded and then included by Russia too...

The actor Robbie Coltrane who played Rubues Hagrid in Harry Potter serie sadly passes away at age of 72
