  1. Well I feel like my only chance for a swap with any of my teammates is @Hipooo if he’s willing we’ll switch.
  2. Mexico Here you take a look at the proposals for the Opening Ceremony uniforms. If you like, you can take a better look at the designs & cast your vote here
  3. Cierto, es Tonatiuh, pero igual no se ve bien en ese estilo de uniforme. Si, el de charro es austero, y aquí hubiera preferido algo similar a lo que usaron en los Panamericanos de 2011. Y el de Oaxaca, tienes razón: debieron ir por un tipo de vestimenta mas tradición y en el caso de las mujeres incluso un vestido simple con esos estampados o mejor aún bordados. Finalmente si es algo que sólo portan en la ceremonia inaugural, deberían mejor hacer un concurso con diseños y manufactura de talleres en comunidades indígenas.
  4. In principle it could be easier. But Baseball team is there by a real miracle that I think won't repeat itself. They will most likely beat the US Jewish Community, but can't see them progress Softball has qualified on pure merits and I'm proud they will manage to put a fierce competition, but if only with some luck on their side they will fight for bronze against the Aussies.
  5. 0-3 medals for Mexico, none of them gold like in Rio. Most likely to succed: Tae kwon do, Diving, Football Outside chance: Archery, Athletics, Gymnastics (artistic)
  6. Xiamen Marathon & Tuscany Camp Global Elite Race Siena (ITA) 11 APR 2021 Men's Marathon Khalid CHOUKOUD 2:09:55 Tomas Hilifa RAINHOLD 2:10:24 Roman FOSTI 2:10:46 Women's Marathon Rosa CHACHA 2:28:17 Irvette VAN ZYL 2:28:40 Daniela TORRES 2:28:55 Immaculate CHEMUTAI 2:29:09 Majida MAAYOUF 2:29:24
  7. Is I recall correctly from the Olympic reports, gymnastics and fencing started reducing the number of competing teams in the 70's. Tennis draws after reintroduction were limited in the single & double draws for a maximum Apart from wrestling, I think also archery & boxing had qualifications for Atlanta. I think that he first edition in which every sport had their number of competitors capped by a qualification system was Athens.
  8. And one of the most enthusiastic among the Argentinian delegation at Guadalajara 2011 PanAm Games. I remember chatting with her and a couple other athletes during Men's Hockey final, and then she along same companions plus some others, were really partying after the Closing Ceremony.
  9. Well, like I've said, it was an afternoon well spent, down memory lane and the GIF button @Quasit thanks for your work, I'll need to have a third run after I hope many others have their own.
  10. Only when my sanity is more important the result... why pondering too much, as I'm only having a great time.
  11. Thank you for the answer @toulousain Well, hard to decide at this turning point, but again I'll take my chance and say the answer is A: Rotterdam
  12. @toulousain could you help me with this one, please? Merci beaucoup.
  13. Had not have used it before, the 50-50 lifeline would have been very useful. The only one I discarded right away is Helsinki, as I don't recall the Finns being too keen to gamble. Now Brugge I've heard is beautiful, but probably too small and random for such event. So, it will be between Rotterdam & Geneva... I'm inclined to say the Dutch city wins, but I'll have to ask an expert to clear any doubts. Which one of them remains online @Quasit
  14. I couldn't fail another question about the Habsburg Empire. It would have been too stressful for the remaining of my afternoon.
  15. Tricky, tricky But using my history & cinema knowledge, and a dose of my own logic, I think Béla is a distinctive Hungarian name. Given that back in the day, the Austro-Hungarian Empire ethnic distribution pretty much followed the administrative divisions between the two realms, Czechia Austria and that Ukrainain strip of land belonged to the German dominated realm. Hungary on the other hald, lost a lot of land and still has a sizable minority in Romania, so being satisfied with equalizing my previous run, I go with option A
  16. Well, it’s not worth risking another lifeline at this point. And as my last educated guess would have proven effective, this in part educated and “I throw myself at the mercy of luck”, with the other, then my answer is D: Tamil Nadu
  17. If I had to choose, it would be Citroen
  18. And what nostalgia gives, nostalgia takes. Going for the next lifeline: Swap
  19. Back with the nostalgia theme, great Back at 95 I was very invested in football as was any other boy in Mexico, particularly because the main kids show was Captain Tsubasa So, being so much interested in the topic, I remember the prize that year was to George Weah, which also made me look out for Liberia in the World map. Answer is then, letter B
  20. And the lifeline worked as I was dubious between A & D, but with this now I’m 99% sure Answer A: Frog
  21. I see we’re getting serious First lifeline please: 50-50
