and Liberia

I know you don't like me, but can you stop being a prick every single chance you get? You're probably an adult, yet you're always acting like a 14 y.o. boy.

Big congratulations to @vinipereira the only person who managed to get a perfect prediction today in the Women's Powerlifting -41kg!

Everyone should learn to be supportive. Running a prediction contest is a difficult task on it's own, let alone running 9, during the Olympics (Which I believe as sportsfans they wanted to watch too, instead of spending their time counting points). The position of running prediction contests is stressful and it's a monotonous task. Deuce did it for many years and got so tired of it that he quit the forum for good. If you're still hoping to have more prediction contests in the future, stop pressuring them too much and let them work at their own pace. I fully understand that everyone is eager to witness the results, but we can't forget about the people behind the results.

I read a lot of post in this thared, and i think that it was a bit stupid  So, i tryed to work on the international federation members. It's only the 1st part, I worked for some days for this datas. In next day i'll post the 2nd part

PS. and a + for Quasit in leading the thread. great job

These are great times to be a British Olympic fan. I don't suppose it will last but  Great Britain now finds itself Second in the Medals table after nine days. The points table is not quite so spectacular for us but there is progress against the Chinese- the gap is down to 46, from 68.5 yesterday and  97 from the day before. Bahrain, Botswana and Grenada join the list, as does a second decimal place, thanks to three golfers contriving to share 8th place today. I'm beginning to wonder if Finland remembered to catch the plane to Rio...

CLOSING CEREMONY
 
To start the Closing Ceremony of the Totallympics International Aunnual Song Contest 2016 let make a quick trip to the next Annual edition. The Tisc 2017 will be obviously hosted by Great Britain, ofc to introduce GB we need probably some 100 ceremonies to show everything about this beautiful country, so let make only a few minutes really ultra short video of some London and GB touristics attractions
 

 

 
sure it´s only a negligible small percentage of all beauties of GB,
Uk12points will for sure show and introduce us much more next year.
