    will decline their women's quota (I believe she suffered a career ending injury in 2020)

    Especially after the bizarre interpretation of the rules that allowed Frimpong in last time;  was it the "clean list" or something so that 60 was really 100.

    I got a deep cut for you: Igor Tikhomirov, bronze medallist at the 1988 Olympics in the épée team event, won a world championship bronze medal for Canada in individual épée back in 2006.

    30 consecutive matches beating Djibouti was spectacular from Algeria but bumping into a powerhouse like  and keep on winning was asking too much from them I think.

    That's when the drama starts.  Nations will be accepting/declining quotas in real time, from what I can remember from before Pyeongchang.

    based on a super quick (and therefore not so accurate) research, Harvey was already 3rd in the Shanghai Grand Prix event in 2018...that should be the first podium finish in the last 10 years for a female Canadian fencer...follow by today's result...
     
    however, I bet on her and Jessica Guo to improve that score in a very short time...

    so variola didn't start, and cipulis is done.  Deen needs to go from 20th to 15th on the second run.  Canada has qualified three for the 4man now.

    These should be the Two-Man quotas:
     
    3 sleds:
     
     Canada
     Germany
     
    2 sleds:
     
     Austria
     China
     Latvia
     ROC
     South Korea
     Switzerland
     United States
     
    1 sled:
     
     Brazil
     Czechia
     France
     Great Britain
     Italy
     Jamaica
     Monaco
     Netherlands
     Romania
     Trinidad and Tobago
     
     Trinidad and Tobago becomes the 91st NOC to qualify. Netherlands should reject the quota which means that  Israel would get the last spot.  Croatia would be the first reserve.

    Big Brother (probably the most popular TV show in Brazil) is about to start a new season and there's a participant whose name is Eslovênia (literally "Slovenia"). Needless to say, some people are already calling her Eslováquia (Slovakia) @hckošice

    Let's get a reality check here. Frimpong is the one creating havoc here, via tabloids, because... they are not letting him go to the Olympic for free like they (accidentally) did four years ago?
     
    And even if IBSF/IOC got drunk and changed it, what kind of dangerous precedent would that set? Give every athlete free quota forever?

    Our bad luck never ends. Two-man bobsleigh are after today guaranteed first reserve for the Olympics, just 4 points (minimum margin) off the qualification.
     
    They join bobsleigh four-man and short track W 1500 m, who are also guaranteed first reserves by this point. Crnković in M biathlon is the current first reserve (likely to stay there), while we also have guaranteed second reserve for snowboarding W slopestyle/big air.
     
    Tldr: We have more first/second reserves than actual participants. Yay us.

    He is basically trying to profit from COVID. How very commendable.
     
    The best 7 results count for qualification, and COVID or no COVID, he already has 13 (!!) results this year.
     
    Oh, and he also has the result from the test event where he placed 29th (last).
     
    Goes in line with his prior self-promoting ways.
