Perhaps 5 of these are Portuguese?

I can locate her on Twitter or Instagram if we're getting close to the deadline She might evade Totallympics, but she won't be able to hide there.

Well, happy that Romanov is slowly getting back into shape. As for Fomin and Mačkinė, well, they know what they've done

I'll just start with some light ones: @Gigs @Skijumpingmaster @Belle @titicow @dezbee2008 @vinipereira @intoronto @opruh @Federer91 @stefanbg @MHSN @Makedonas @thepharoah @DaniSRB @catgamer @Ionoutz24 @EselTheDonkey @justony @Illya @Faris @Finnator123 @Swewi @sami-eg @JonPhi @MantaRaymarc

You're excused, Antarctica.

Do you not count South America and North America as seperate continents? It's the second time you mention "all 5", but technically there's 6

When do we officially start the witch hunt for more people? @rybak

32nd from Fomin. Decent ski-speed, with some better shooting perhaps we could expect something in the sprint.

Well, it wouldn't be fun if the song is already somewhat known, wouldn't it?

What do you mean by that? I had 11 really really good songs that I would've been happy with. In the end, I decided to go with one that felt most unique and I thought it would be nice to not send a repeat artist as well.

After a really really long and drawn out selection process, I felt that this song is the one that had to represent Lithuania this year. There were so many good options and songs that I loved, but ultimately the one that I chose is just art and the reason why music is one of the greatest forms of expression. This song is written in memory of Evgenya Redko's mother that passed, I recommend reading the lyric translation. Also, I know not everyone here watches the music videos, but I encourage to do it at least once (perhaps after the votes are in), because it is lokwey probably the best music video ever produced in Lithuania. LITHUANIA Evgenya Redko - Laikinai (Temporarily) Lyrics: [Intro]Laikinai, aplink pasaulis griuvo / Temporarily, the world crashed down around meLaikinai, laikas sustojo atsitiktinai / Temporarily, time stopped accidentallyMano gyvenime tu laikinai / You're in my life temporarilyKodėl taip laikinai? / Why so temporarily?[Pre-Chorus]Tikiuosi tau lengva / I hope it's not tough for youUžmigus visam laikui, sąmanos dengia / Sleeping for eternity covered with mossTu mano atminty, bet man tavęs stinga / You're in my memory, but there's not enough of youTavo pataluos šįryt sninga, šįryt sninga / It's snowing in your bed this morning, it's snowing this morning[Chorus](Degi ugnimi, degi ugnimi amžina) / You burn with flame, you burn with eternal flame(Degi ugnimi, degi ugnimi amžina) / You burn with flame, you burn with eternal flameTiems kurių neliko / To those who are no longer with usTiems kuriuos širdy amžiais laikysim / Those that we will forever hold in our heartsTiems kurie mus gynė / To those that defended usAngelai sparnus nelaiku nupynė / Angels gave them wings too early[Post-Chorus]Degi ugnimi amžina / You burn with eternal flameDegi ugnimi, laikinai / You burn with flame, temporarily[Verse]Mačiausi aš tavo atvaizde / I saw myself in your imageIr liūdesy ir rūpesty veide / In sadness and in worry on your faceAbiejų jaučiamam skausme / In the pain that we've felt togetherJaučiamam skausme / In the pain that we've felt[Pre-Chorus]Tikiuosi tau lengva / I hope it's not tough for youUžmigus visam laikui, sąmanos dengia / Sleeping for eternity covered with mossTu mano atminty, bet man tavęs stinga / You're in my memory, but there's not enough of youTavo pataluos šįryt sninga, šįryt sninga / It's snowing in your bed this morning, it's snowing this morning[Chorus]Tiems kurių neliko / To those who are no longer with usTiems kuriuos širdy amžiais laikysim / Those that we will forever hold in our heartsTiems kurie mus gynė / To those that defended usAngelai sparnus nelaiku nupynė / Angels gave them wings too early[Post-Chorus]Degi ugnimi amžina / You burn with eternal flame[Outro]Šiąnakt nebegrįši / You won't be coming back tonightDangaus pakelėse susitiksim / We'll meet in the roadsides of heavenŠiąnakt nebеgrįši / You won't be coming back tonightIšsiskyrėm mes tik laikinai / We were separated, but only temporarily

I'm waiting for the day that Japan or Philippines finally caves in.

Hello darkness my old friend... A top 70 is too much of an ask from our youth team and this is the second year in a row where our youth is performing tragically. All eyes on the juniors, there are some talented Lithuanian names there Although, seems like the future of our biathlon is extremely uncertain. Kočergina and the guys are not going to be there forever and we have no one that can replace them.

It is absolute insanity. We had so many bangers in 2020 and so many bangers in 2021 already. I want to show off more than 10 songs...............................

Woah, did not expect this to start so early. Lithuania is in of course

Nice, so our boys are already in the top 20

So at the moment the known line-up in men's high jump is three Ukrainians, two Lithuanians and one athlete from UK and Italy. Belarus, Bulgaria and Germany might send some, but that still doens't sound like a lot, since they're holding qualifications. Most other countries have already announced their teams, so perhaps some Scandinavian jumpers, France?

From all of the teams already announced on Totallympics, there are three male high jumpers and two of them are Lithuanian I guess we can expect some additions from Ukraine, Belarus, Italy and someone from Germany?

Interesting that your team is completely dominated by sprinters.

I really don't expect much from this. Any top 20 is a victory Any top 40, a pleasant surprise

Honestly, should Lithuania care? Our cc-skiing is absolutely abyssmal, I just hope Dainytė gets bribed to join biathlon, she only lost 2:39 to Bendika, that's salvagable, very very salvagable.

Lithuania are sending 9 athletes to these championships: Agnė Šerkšnienė - 400m (broke the Lithuanian indoor record earlier this month, could be someone to watch out for) Modesta Justė Morauskaitė - 400m Diana Zagainova - Triple Jump (hasn't jumped over 14m in a long while, not really expecting much) Gediminas Truskauskas - 60m (semifinal at best) Rapolas Saulius - 60m Hurdles (broke his PB and qualified in the Lithuanian Championships last week) Simas Bertašius - 1500m (is a capable runner, could surprise with a final) Adrijus Glebauskas - High Jump also two other athletes were approved without a qualification mark: Juozas Baikštys - High Jump Jogailė Petrikaitė - Long Jump for these two, it's going to be their first senior championship appearance, both have had loads of injuries along the way during their career, so it's nice to see them getting a chance to fight with the best). First senior championships appearance for Rapolas Saulius as well, he was a good junior, but his results were at a stalemate for the last couple of years, but he changed coaches and has been improving pretty decently.

I heard that people were hating hard on the Norwegian representative since KEiiNO didn't qualify, so I listened to Tix's song, had a little bit of a cringe attack from the sparkly wings, but the song is pretty okay. As for KEiiNO, all I can say is 'kay, no... I did not believe they could create a worse song, but here they surprised me yet again. I have no idea how a project like this can even work and have such a huge following. It's a complete disaster all around for me personally.

Finally someone said it

Honestly, it's a complete lottery at this point, one day an athlete looks dead, the other the athlete is looking like the fastest that he/she has ever been. For example, I didn't expect Samuelsson to fly like that today, whilst Ponsi was a bit slow compared to what he showed previously. Same with Hanna Oeberg, you never know if she's going to have the spark or look dead on the skis and Elvira having been one of the fastest in these champs not having the strength to keep up with Herrmann, whom also can't decide when she's going to be slow or fast. Really, the only team that you can expect to always be fast is Norway, whilst France, Sweden, Russia, Italy, Germany and other countries produce skiing statistics like a yoyo. Edit: I'm sorry, RBU
