Agree.

Just my two cents: 1) I do agree that first time hosts should be given better odds in the selection process; after all, is always nice learning more about cultures and places. 2) I would like to see a shorter, quicker version of @OlympicIRL game to determine the winning bid. I always found them entertaining enough, although I agree that in some ocassions they can be to long. 3) I liked the suggestion by @dcro to have previous host put an "extra effort" to win the game.

Mexico's "12 Warriors" have now become a complete joke Sadly, it will be another 40 years before returning to a World Cup.

Mexico confirms bid to host Totallympics 2019 Annual International Song Contest Guadalajara, Mexico.- One day before the deadline set, Mexican jury confirmed its bid to host 2019 Totallympics Annual International Song Contest after last year's winner Italy declined to do so. In a press conference in the late hours of Thursday, the bid team made a brief presentation, revealing the thoughts and expectations of this process. "It was sad to learn Italy would not host the next edition as it would have been a wonderful place to visit, but we understand that sometimes timing does not work for everyone, as it's the case now. Still we appreciate the honesty of the Italian jury and we only hope that they can host on the near future", declared Mexico's bid CEO and TISC juror, mrv86. "However, these news also gives chance to other countries to showcase their music, culture and attractions" he added. "We are aware that countries like Algeria and Croatia are eager to host the competition for the first time and others, like Serbia, desire to receive the world once again; after all this is a prestigious event, but even more, an opportunity to bring closer many people around the globe". About Mexican odds to win the right to host, he stated: "As it has been the case in another couple of times, the bid organization fully understand the founders' main objective is to promote a fair competition and in that order of ideas, we know new countries have a greater chance of playing hosts; in particular, Algeria's digital creativity and Croatia's dedication to TISC are also great factors in their advantage, as it is Serbia's enthusiasm; but being honest, I have the personal hope that this year we could win and show another aspects of Mexico to the world." The conference ended with the presentation of the bid's logo and slogan (see below).

Hispanic final between and Go El Tri

Starting tomorrow until Sunday, rowing qualification regatta Entry list Qualification criteria Live results

Sailing +2 +2 +1 +1 +1 +2 Above quotas are considering the results of 2018 Copa Brasil. 2 spots in kite and 3 in 49erFX couldn't be awarded.

Speed Roller Skating +4 +4 +4 +2 +2 +4 +1 +3 +4 +4 +4 The above quotas were awarded according to my interpretation of this document (in spanish); it says that some NOC's had already been allocated places after this year's South American Games, so their competitors couldn't be included in the general classification if they have already reached the maximum number of skaters per gender. This was the case of Colombia in both genders and that of Argentina and Chile in women's.

Nothing to worry in the short term. Taiwanese voters chose to reject the proposal, so they will continue to compete as "Chinese Taipei" Source

Indeed poor planning, she did amazing today her vault score would have earned the silver medal in vault Plus she earned another medal on bars, so a great result.

Well it's highly unlikely, but I greatly pray no women's team shows to that tournament.

Table Tennis +6 +6 +3 +3 +6 +3 +3 +6

Football +18 +18 After 2018 CONCACAF's U-20 tournament Second Round & Final Match As was with women, CONCACAF will determine at a later date which team in both genders will qualify; this means that Mexico is at risk of missing not only the games, but the podium in the men's competition for the first time since 1991.

Sad news indeed; with this C team will struggle to even win a medal; better not to send a team at all.

Water Ski +4 +2 +4 +4 +4 +2 +4 +4

I would like to try it, I like to experience new flavors As for "Jarritos" I'll try to find whether they are exported to Brazil.

In Mexico, Coca Cola made a similar beverage from guaraná called Senzao some years ago... I liked it when I was in middle school, but after that I found it rather sweet, but that could be from some change in the soda's formula. In Mexico there are a number of local produced sodas and soft drinks; among the most known are "Jarritos" ("little jugs") which are made from tropical fruits like pinneaple, guava, mandarin, watermelon, tamarind and even hibiscus flower. Another popular drink, especially among kids is Tonicol, a drink made from vanilla extract

Sailing +1 +1 +1 +1 After conclusion of 2018 Kiteboarding North American Championships. Since this will be an open competition, quotas obtained in men's standings take precedence over those in the women's event; therefore, 2 quotas originally awarded to women, will be reallocated to NOC's competing at the Kiteboarding South American; however qualification document doesn't clarify if the redistributed places will come from the men's or women's races.

Yes, there's a contradiction (as with other sports ) in the rules: however either they consider the first or second criteria, the same countries qualify: Wakeboard (Water Ski) +2 +2 +2 +1 +2 +2 +1 +2

I express interest in bidding for the Annual, and in case Denmark declines, Open.

So, last week's championships were used as the qualifier instead of next year's? If so, I'll add the quotas later on

Shooting +12 +1 +3 +5 +19 +18 +9 +6 +2 +10 +4 +4 +9 +18 +1 +16 +2 +3 +15 +14 +2 +23 +3 +5 After conclusion of 2018 Pan American Championships. As with Olympic qualification rules, an athlete who already got a quota place for his/her NOC, either at this event or at the previous qualifiers, could not be awarded another quota place. 11 quotas (8 in women's events & 3 in men's) could not been distributed. Also, 2 wildcards left for non qualifyinf NOC's.

Football +18 Best Caribbean team after group round of 2018 CONCACAF's U-20 tournament Group Round. Still 3 teams to qualify: one from Central America (4 teams still in competition) one from North America (Mexico v. USA) and a final spot to be named.

Thanks to @bestmen @Memo & @vinipereira for giving points to the Mexican song. Special congratulations to @dezbee2008. Thank you so much for all the time and commitment in making this edition wonderful and entertaining. Congratulations @Agger for your victory. A great song that surely deserved the top prize Also congratulations to USA and Ireland joining the podium and adding another medal to their TISC record.

It does, thank you. It reminded me back then when your own song was my first or second reserve in that edition.
