  1. Don't worry, I have been waiting. Let's hope the stream will be smooth
  2. Really hoped Benin or Madagascar can do something special and win this, but of course in the end you have to be realistic with the chances
  3. But the current logo was 10000% better than the plagiarized one.
  4. Apparently we got our first medal! But the rule behind it was
  5. How do you destroy confiscated marijuana in your country? In Indonesia, we burn them in open air
  6. Is this the song that is used when Greece paraded in London 2012? Sounds familiar
  7. I'm more than 2200 miles away from the location, so no
  8. And our chance to medal in Napoli is basically 0,00001 %
  9. No money, no power Well she has requested for amnesty, the president will response (hopefully) as soon as possible. The Supreme Court is doing their stuff as usual, here I give you two examples: 1. Reducing the sentence of a wealthy businesswoman who bribed a prosecutor with USD 660,000 BUT 2. Overturning the High Court decision on a grandma who allegedly stolen 6 plates and a chunk of ox meat from her workplace, jailing her for 130 days (the High court decided that the grandma wasn't guilty).
  10. What is funny that only top badminton athletes here who don't go to college, let alone pretend to. Other Indonesian athletes either really go to legit college or perhaps just "registered". Back then even top badminton athlete barely have a high school education, causing those who are unfortunate to have their career ended prematurely became poor. It is only recently compulsory for athletes to complete their high school education. Liliyana Natsir the Rio 2016 medalist only had a primary education.
  11. Regardless whether it is in the programme or not, the problem is the Indonesian badminton athletes sent to Universiade are lower-tier players. Our elite players mostly don't go to college, unlike other countries such as Korea or Chinese Taipei.
  12. 51 athletes for Indonesia, a big delegation considering badminton and weighlifting is not in the programme. Let's see how much shock we have....
  13. Yeah many stadiums and arenas in Africa, Oceanian Islands, and Central America are Chinese built. Put aside the sneaky political amd diplomatic stuff, I think that's better way to build a decent stadium compared to if those countries try to build by themselves (they won't get the same quality stadiums with the same amount of fund). Recently they are building a sport complex in Cambodia for the 2023 SEA Games, and I tell you their aquatic stadium is way better than what we have for Asian Games.
  14. https://ok.ru/group/53865195241544/video/c2291784 Strangely enough, it didn't show all the videos. However you can search it with the keyword ' II Европейские игры '
  15. Pre Munich 1972 would be hard I guess? I believe those unused film rolls were thrown away after making the official film? I honestly also can't understand that too. Both FIFA and IOC actually tried to replay old videos nowadays but they arent old enough
  16. From what I observed, they only claimed copyright from Olympic Channel broadcast maybe because it included their commentator. Those from Belarus TV or Channel one Russia (Russian or no commentary) stays intact. A bit sad as nowadays multisport event videos at Youtube is decreasing, they claimed copyright here and there but refuse to reupload the events by themselves (yet keep concerning the lower interest)
  17. Because of the symbol with the red stripe, at first I read "Regione Campania" as "Begone Campania"
  18. Sochi actually has a better chance to made it emotional again but I think they just scrapped it. I still remember they created the Sochi version of Do Svidanya Moskva (but I hated it when Alsou sang it)
  19. You can try opening Channel One Russia's Odnoklassiki with Hola, they have the whole broadcasted sessions. I reuploaded badminton finals from there to YouTube. (Olympic Channel is threatening copyright strike for those who reuploaded screen recordings from their website, for example the opening video is down)
  20. Just watched the closing, I thought they wanted to imitate Misha in Moscow 1980 but Lesik just standing there and staring lol
  21. I have to say despite the Games really lacking both in interest and programmes to other continental Games, it is still enjoyable. At least I still say that it is enjoyable than the Islamic Solidarity Games, for example. When watching other sports like shooting, wrestling, or cycling during the absence of badminton broadcast, I can feel the competition. For example, watching the men's points race managed to calm my anger when the Olympic Channel decided to not broadcast badminton Hopefully Krakow will be bigger and better.
  22. Happy for the Dutch ladies But still no broadcast
  23. Hell, I am tortured in these last days of the Games. Not even a single TV in Europe broadcasting the badminton final
