Congratulations!
,  ,  

Congrats to Italy.... another silver medal after the very first edition  
 

SILVEEEEER 
@OlympicIRL congrats for the podium, amazing song

So after more than 11 hours since the voting began we finally know the destination of the TISC Annual 2016 Title.....
 
Congratulations Great Britain   ...... you've done it @uk12points 

Actually when I read this opening line....
 
 
.... I thought dcro was going to present analysis and stats on Totallympics members' dinner and tea-drinking habits
 
 

I've made a chart about leader's average score per jury (compared to average scores of previous winners). At one point (between 5th and 7th vote) GB was ever more dominant than Ireland in 2014! But now they are behind both Ireland's winners.
 

 

and are off the mark

Wow, that's really encouraging news, thanks for bringing this to my attention
 

@hckosice Thanks for the very nice words, I'm honoured to be here in Slovakia .
 

That's a great attitude
 

Precisely

I give an example. There is a drug called GW 501516. It works well at helping with endurance so some cyclists and athletes take it.
One Olympic champion has been banned for taking it.
Trouble is that research on the drug for medical use was stopped when it is was found to cause cancer in rats.
Basically if you legalize doping you have to accept that sportspeople will take anything that helps them to win.
If you have children then a parent must accept that the only way your child will become successful is to feed him or her massive doses of steroids or EPO or whatever drug which may effect their health or even kill them,
If a person is happy to do that then they really should not be allowed to have children,
Anti-doping today is bad but the thought of people taking anything they want to take scares me. If that ever happened I hope all sports would be banned forever.

I vote for no after the user's last response that he doesn't care about the contest.

Hopefully we will share in some success next time buddy rather than disaster.

As I stated earlier that I think Totallympics should have extra special templates and designs for the Olympic Games (use different flag design than the usual ones too).... they should stand out beyond the normal formats because it is a once in a 4 year event (Summer Olympics) and it is a special occasion. Here is an example of what a results template may look like if users would like to give their opinion....

When an Irish competitor is involved, things never go smoothly

Rio 2016 will be her SEVENTH Olympics!!
 
I remember thinking she was old in Athens 2004! Here we are in 2016 and she is still putting in top class performances on the international stage. I admire her commitment, it amazes me....25 years ago she won her first World Championship title.... the same year Red Star Belgrade won the European Cup in football, Miguel Indurain was winning his first Tour de France and Mike Powell and Carl Lewis were having a world record duel in the men's long jump! Her longevity is just amazing
