Ladies and Gentleman, this is my 5,000 post. I didn’t want this occasion to go by without marking it, so get ready for this monster of a post.
 
First, I’d like to reflect about my time on Totallympics:
 
Growing up I was always an “outsider” or “misunderstood”. I didn’t have a lot of friends, and I didn’t share may of the interests other people my age had. I loved to talk politics, international sports, and life. I wasn’t really surrounded by people with those interests. There was a time, in middle school, where I seriously began to at least contemplate suicide. Luckily around the time I finished middle school and began high school, I found people who believed in me, and who liked me for me. However, even with my increased social participation, there was always something missing. No one I know wants to talk much about the Olympics, or the Commonwealth Games, or the Pan Am Games, or really about anything I was interested in. That all changed one spring day in early 2018 when I was browsing the internet looking for information about the Tokyo 2020 qualification process. I came across a website called Totallympics. I read what I believed to be the comments section at the time (mostly because I didn’t know much about forums), and saw a user complaining about how hard it would be for a Brazilian biathlete to qualify for the Olympics. I was immediately hooked from then on. It took me a while to understand this crazy new community that I was now a part. However, there isn’t a day that goes by where I’m not happy to be a Totallympics member. This forum completed me. It’s honestly helped me become a better person too through learning to interact with people who have vast differences in background. So, I’d like to thank all of you for being such great users, and for always (or at least most of the time) making me feel welcomed, and for giving me a place where I feel like I can be me.
 
Second I’d like to share some memories with users:
I’ll always remember being @heywoodu‘s new favorite user when I joined. I feel like that didn’t last long 
I used to hate @bestmen‘s complaints, comments, accusations, etc., but now I’ve grown to love them like a child loves a drunk uncle. They might be crazy, but it would feel the same if bestmen wasn’t around.
Peter Sagan made my day as a little kid one time, so it’s always nice to have a fellow diehard supporter on the forum @hckosice. Plus, you’re one of the few users who just always seems to able to say the right thing to make everyone happy. 
You guys wouldn’t be my “online family” if we didn’t argue. I can always trust @heywoodu, @dcro, and @Monzanator to challenge my opinions and call me out when needed. I may often say things critical of you, but I still treasure your presence on this forum (even if you are wrong when I’m right )
I’d also like to give shoutouts to my fellow Americans who generally seem to understand where I come from, and always give me a nice sense of “home” @dezbee2008, @bmo, @Rdbc, @Maxim Fastovsky, @RobtheAggie
I can also almost always count on @zob79 to throw out a dirty joke. He’s more of the dirty grandpa of the family.
I never knew a lot of openly gay people growing up. Luckily I was taught tolerance from a young age. It blew my mind to see someone like @thiago_simoes be so open about it. The insights and opinions you’ve shared with me have been invaluable.
I obviously like to give huge shoutouts to @Sindo, @vinipereira, and @hckosice for keeping this wonderful place running and for at least attempting to keep us all in line.
Of course I’d also like to give a huge shoutout as well too my fellow Totallympics Media reporters @Vojthas and @mrv86.
Lastly I’d like to give a wholehearted thanks to @Sindo, @Vojthas, @mrv86, @OlympicIRL, and @heywoodu for supporting me on my journey as a sports journalist.
 
I’m sorry I couldn’t thank all the users who’ve made my time on here special, so here’s a special mention for you too @phelps, @ahjfcshfghb, @Federer91, @vlad, @Griff88, @MHSN, @Ustatsch, @Dolby, @Jan Linha, @ChandlerMne, @uk12points, @Grassmarket, @Gianlu33, @Wanderer, @wumo26, @Agger, @dareza, @intoronto, @NearPup, @JoshMartini007, @Laraja, @Belle, @Finnator123, @Function CR Lee, @Benolympique, @ofan, @AIFhg, @thepharoah, @amen09, @LDOG, @Jinzha, @opruh, and anyone else I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with that I can’t remember at the moment (sorry).
 
Third, I’d like to talk about being a sports journalist:
 
I feel in love with journalism during high school, and have has admired the likes of Inside The Games and Around The Rings. I made a name for myself around here as a replay archiver, but I always wanted to do more. I was lucky enough to meet @Vojthas who shared my passion for journalism and sport. He has taught me so much and is even currently at an event reporting for Totallympics Media (our first ever accreditation I might add). We were lucky enough to add @mrv86 to the team as well. This summer alone we made a podcast, and a fully functioning website for our organization. The later was only made possible @Sindo who I owe a huge thanks. I’d also like to thank all of you for your support, and ask that you continue to check in on Totallympics Media.
 
Fourth, I’d like to celebrate my 5,000 post by looking at some of my personal highlights.

Lastly, I’d like to say:

Thank You All!
 

Pistols and rifles are WAY more popular than shotguns here in China, We have great female trap and skeet shooters but our lads are yet to shine in the international bunkers. I shoot trap and based on what I saw, indoor shooting ranges are swarmed with kids and parents in the weekends but they won't let their kids near the shotguns. Will take years to change.

By the way, Chu Yuanmeng won the junior women's sprint and pursuit and silver in the supersprint  

Greatest  result of all time was the 2016 YOG Single Mixed Relay

Which was one of the greatest biathlon races ever
 
That was as epic as epic can be.

Gold for China! Zhang. I noticed both her and Tang being good in all the events.
 
Is this the greatest Chinese biathlon result? It's summer, but still nice...

My favourite and most tense thread on Totallympics at the moment, let's go!   

Quotas for ...
 
How lucky is China to qualify in both eventing and jumping (sigh)... JPN/AUS are prequalified, so they were already very lucky with that. But even today, they would have failed without Wong's inexplicably bad opening round.

Basically right, but not bowls , that is bocce

drama in Chamonix!
 
Janja's streak finally came to an end in dramatic fashion, after she made an unbelievable and unexplicable mistake in the semifinals, which eliminated her for the first time in her career before the final of a Lead competition...
 
on the other hand, the 15-year young Korean sensation Seo got her first World Cup victory at her second competition ever (last week she was only second to Garnbret in her WC debut)...
 
among the men, instead, the greatest male climber ever, Adam Ondra, won a very difficult competition, where no climber could make it to the top of the route...
 
 
2019 Sport Climbing World Cup, Stage #8 (Chamonix, FRA)
