Anyways, I thought it'd be an interesting share: Former TISC winners Leon Somov & Jazzu decided to part ways after 12 years together in music. We toured with them at the "Game Over" tour, this is a picture from the final concert two days ago in Kaunas.

It'll be interesting to see how the game changes with a different Russian user choosing the song

Yeah, some of them have already crossed over to World Cup racing and it seems that it's looking good for those who haven't yet crossed over too. I'd go as far as saying that your talent pool (at least on the women's side) is looking better than that of Germany at the moment

I think Biathlon is going to become a very interesting and attractive sport to Sweden starting from now on. Seeing the amount of junior talent that you're producing, this might surpass the Zidek, Ekholm, Ferry, Bergman era.

An article just appeared on our media outlets. This is going to be the 14th World Championships for Simona Krupeckaitė, she has 12 medals (2 gold, 5 silver and 5 bronze), so I'd say that's a pretty good TRACK record. Last time when the World Championships were held in this city, Krupeckaitė won silver.

Oh yes, she's there and she's pretty capable. She's the Kaisa Makarainen of Track Cycling, she's going to try for the final time in Tokyo. On top of that, Vasilijus Lendel and Olivija Baleišytė are very strong out of their junior years and I wouldn't completely write them off just yet.

I wonder, I wonder if we can end these championships with a medal round our necks

Seeing as I've been following the Biathlon scene for a good amount of years and especially focusing a lot on the junior results, I think that it's fair to say that Finland is growing up to be a powerhouse nation in a couple of years, just like Sweden has the foundations now to be able to challenge Norway, Germany, Russia etc.

When people are never held accountable for their actions and they never have to face consequences for their actions, they never learn from their mistakes. Warnings would have been okay a long time ago, two years of constant improper behaviour does not simply change over a day. The offender has not shown any remorse, nor has he ever tried to apologise for his misconduct. I would definitely look at this situation differently if his participation message would have started with an open apology, addressing that his behaviour in the contest last year (and years before that) was not appropriate and that he is owning up to the words that he said and striving for change. In all honesty, I don't think that he would even reply to @OlympicIRL statement, unless of course he feels pressured to do so after reading my message in order to yet again be on your good side. My suggestion is not a full time ban, but excluding him from 1 contest might help him learn a lesson or two, because right now I see a kid whose throwing his legos and toys all over the ground, you keep stepping on them, but are still thinking "oh, what a cute kid". I'd suggest excluding him from the voting process for a single contest, but that would mean an advantage for Algeria and it wouldn't be good either. We had a situation with a German user that admitted he didn't care about the contest and voted randomly, yet Germany that year was in the end disqualified from the affair, so why is this case special? Edit: In case I was not clear enough, I'm not just addressing OlympicIRL, I'm addressing the forum.

There'll be two athletes from Lithuania here: 1. Agnė Šerkšnienė, 400m. She recently broke the Lithuanian indoor 400m. record hence why she is here. 2. Dovilė Dzindzaletaitė, triple jump, also broke the Lithuanian indoor record this winter, but she qualified here through rating. Airinė Palšytė was qualified as well, but has decided to skip the winter season completely due to some issues.

Honestly, as a person that has been with this contest from the very start, I am absolutely, horribly disappointed with how this forum has NO SPINE what so ever. You're basically telling to every other participant that we can do whatever we want and as long as we have some graphic skills, we're welcomed with open arms. May I remind you all, that there is message proof where our beloved Bestmen says himself THAT HIS VOTES ARE RIGGED and his decisions are PURELY RANDOM. Not to mention the harassment of other TISC hosts year after year on top of many other instances of ludicrous behaviour. The lines with "we can't have a song contest without Algeria" are a bit ridiculous to me, because we've had them before (without Algeria) and they were great. If we're okay with a person that shows constant signs of disrespectful behaviour and even admits to breaking the rules of this very contest, well then this 10th edition of TISC is not in any way special to me. I'm a person that values music, a person that values honesty, a person that respects the rules and probably a person that takes this way too seriously, but I love everything that we have done here and it hurts me that a single snake is trying to ruin everything year in and year out, yet no action is taken. If you do not think that this is serious, the last contest was won by 5 points. I'm sorry to bring this issue up again on @vinipereira and @titicow moment, but nobody gave a f*** after my contest, nobody gave a f*** after @uk12points contest, nobody gave a f*** after @amen09 contest and nobody will probably give a f*** now, because I don't have a moving picture to prove my point.

Hm, we opened these championships with a 31st place from Romanov (and an amazing last lap, I might add) and a 39th place from Jesipionok (1st range time, 4 total shooting time). Other than that, the day was marked with uncharacteristically bad shooting. Best shot of the day from our team was Romanov with 2+2+0+0. Dindaitė failed the standing shooting miserably with 0+4+0+3. Very below average shooting performances for Fomin, Kaznačenko and Mačkinė (though some might argue that Mačkinė always misses half the targets in every race) Though, there are good signs as well, even though Romanov took a higher placement today, I think that all eyes are on Ana, whom would have won bronze if she stayed clear. Also, it's very interesting how Linas Banys will do in his races, I'm expecting more good results, because Otepaa is just like racing at home for our folks.

You know how biathlon always takes talented cross-country skiers and teaches them to shoot in the quest of forming the perfect biathlete? I know that Serbia definitely has some great athletes in shooting, maybe an experiment is in order to see how good they'd be on skis?

From one Oeberg to another

I didn't really get to see any Olympics this year due to an extreme workload at the time Just caught some biathlon races here and there and still had to skip some lectures to catch the men's sprint/pursuit. Probably won't be able to follow these championships live either, but I'm a very avid results reader

A friendly reminder to Biathlon fans, Youth and Junior World Championships are starting tomorrow morning with two individual races

Eh, saddest medal loss ever for me and on a tie breaker. It was a good chance to get another medal in Biathlon, but somehow with Biathlon being such an unpredictable sport, I always manage to rank fairly well Congrats to the medalists.

I thought he was disqualified from future contests due to his inproper behaviour.

I feel like I'm going to lose the prediction contest medal by like a point I didn't put Germany in, because I believed in Austrian magic far too much. Julian, I'm looking at you

I think Italy just made a mistake With Alexia Runggaldier, she would have been slower, but I think a 10/10 is pretty much guaranteed, Nicole Gontier is a bigger risk/higher reward type of situation, but it's a 50/50 with her shooting.

Dorothea Wierer and Lukas Hofer ending these Olympics with a medal? Well, that's awesome, I really wanted them to get something The biggest irony of these entire Olympics is how Kaisa Makarainen has always been let down by her teammates in relays, often not even starting in them, saving her energy. Yet today, this mixed relay equaled her best Olympic result - 6th place in 2014 Mass Start.

I'm the Kaisa Makarainen of Eurovision today

As expected: Jury Votes: 4th Televote: 12th Final Placement: 8th My Eurovision journey is over My influence is not big enough.

I believe it's nearly over for me Lithuania just simply does not like me Not famous enough for them yet.

Welp, the televote is not looking kind to me today as I assumed
