Somehow it feels very natural for me as a Dane to make a Swede angry. Also, I wonder why stabbing another juror is not a serious disqualification reason?

It is with deep sadness sir it had to come to this, but thou know too much.

Whom? That name doesn't ring any true. What has this sir you call "heywoodu" achieved to make his name known on this forum?

Only me and his Highness, the H-guy, know the true answer.

Well, it's 03:42 in @KingOfTheRhinos's time zone. Hopefully he will wake up early.

Tennis - Roland Garros/French Open has been rescheduled. https://www.rolandgarros.com/en-us/article/tournament-2020-coronavirus-rescheduled-2a-september-4-october So this would mean it would start only one week after U.S. Open.

Athletics - "Due to the growing number of countries affected by the COVID-19 virus, the first three meetings of the 2020 Wanda Diamond League season, scheduled for 17th April in Qatar, 9th and 16th May 2020 in China, cannot be held as planned. This decision was made in close consultation with organising committees, local authorities and sports governing bodies... The current plan is to stage the Shanghai event on 13th August. New dates for Doha and the second meeting in China remain to be announced. It could be that they will be held after the Wanda Diamond League Final in Zurich from 9th through 11th September, where the Diamond League Champions will be crowned, should the global situation allow". https://www.worldathletics.org/news/news/wanda-diamond-league-suspends-early-season-ev

So yeah, since last night I have had fever, headache, soarness in my muscles and ligaments and a runny nose. I haven't had any respiratory issues. My symptoms are not that severe at the moment. I slept around 3 hours last night and today around noon I slept for 3 hours. According to our health authoritiesl I shouldn't call them unless my symptoms get more severe in the upcoming days or I get any respiratory issues. I hope I haven't caught covid-19... Nevertheless, at least for the next 14 days I'm in self-quarantine in my apartment.

Has anyone heard from @Wanderer? He hasn't been online much lately.

As most of the world of sports are on hold and the last juries are about to send their votes to this year host in TISC, I have recently grown an urge to listen to some of the former entries of TISC. I found out some of the TISC playlists on YT have a few songs who have either been blocked, made private or been deleted. I have spend the last couple of days "updating" the playlists. Everybody should be able to watch/hear almost all entries now. Of course if your experience a video is blocked in your country, then let me know. I will try to fix it, so you can hear the entry. Only entries who have participated in the TISC Grand Final are included in the playlists. Entries which got disqualifed before before a Grand Final are not included.

Final Standing available here Federer91 Dunadan toulousain The champion of the first season of Totallympics Biathlon Manager Games is @Federer91. He was far behind before the last World Cup stage, but by using the transfer point system, he took the overall lead and retained it over the stage. Congrats, @Federer91! Due to a strict budget there is no fancy prize other than the honor of calling yourself the champion of Totallympics Biathlon Manager Game 2019/20. It long looked like @Dunadan would take the title, but unfortunately for him he was overtaken in the last WC stage. He has had a great season, so despite of not winning the title he can look back on successful season in BMG. @toulousain ended up 3rd. Overall a good season for him. Many of his biathletes did a great job throughout the season, so they could likely expect to be called back for next season. I hope most of the managers have enjoyed this first/test season of BMG. I have already spotted some issues with some of the systems which need a change for the next season. About the next season. To be honest, it has often been very stressful to be both prediction contest manager and running this at the same time. I don't see myself manage this alone for next season, as I will likely move to Slovenia to begin my Master's at University of Ljubljana this autumn. Therefore, I would like to ask if one or two users would like to be co-managers for the next season? It would be great if the co-manager/s could take half of the races. So the co-manager/s would help updating the biathle points and the overall manager standing after a race have been completed. Co-manager/s will of course have influence on any new ideas/systems for the next season. I think that's was all from me on this season of BMG. Let's hope we wil have another season of BMG when the 2020/21 IBU Biathlon World Cup season begins. By the way, thank you very much, @africaboy, @toulousain, @heywoodu, @brunamoura, @Dunadan, @Federer91, @Vojthas, @Monzanator @hckosice, @IoNuTzZ, @Henry_Leon, @Agger, @RobtheAggie, @Kirkpatrick, @Olympian1010, @Ufilov for participating.
