Wow, for a moment I thought his name was Swimmer and that he was a swimmer, that would have been awesome
 
His name however is Aminath Shajan, which is nice too
 

Rowing, an even more detailed schedule (unfortunately, it's in German only)...

and for canoe slalom,  this is the official schedule unveiled by our national Olympic Committee..no sense to wait for a confirmation of ICF as i know them they will probably present the schedule around next years christmas...
 
 

I believe this is the schedule for canoe sprint

Amazing thread 
 
Shooting have a detailed schedule: http://www.issf-sports.org/news.ashx?newsid=2482

Another minor change within the Men's football schedule on Aug 04: They (silently) changed the slots for the Group C matches, which means MEX-GER will meet at 17:00 before the match KOR-FIJ at 20:00.
 
This has obviously been changend due to broadcasting issues as the German match now starts at 22:00 German time instead of 1:00 in the morning, while the Koreans can follow their match at 9:00 in the morning instead of 6:00.

wonderful job, as always!
 
but the Waterpolo schedule needs to be reviewed...
in fact, there have been some late changes according to some TV requirements...
the correct (and definitive) one can be found here:

Wonderful information, thank you!
 
Very small correction.  On Day 5 I believe it should be Men's synchro 3m diving instead of Women's (which is already listed on Day 2).

A / A
 
And as it was already pointed out, not every winner has the will (or time) to host next event, so in that case candidacy is open to everyone. 

19 days to go....

1: b
2: a

1) I'm gonna go with b on this one, though it is nice to hear music older than 5 years from other countries
 
2) a, because if the winner wants to host the next one, great. If not, it's open season.

That is one of the best finishes of a championships race I can ever remember!

2a

isn't 31 days !!!??and after 11 hours will be exactly 30

So finally I get to answer to those two questions:

1 - C)
I understand the reasons for the rule, but I'm not in favor of a restriction that forbidds songs from the last 2 or 3 years. I think a reasonable answer would be to forbidd songs from the current year (as they have a exclusive and dedicated contest to do it, the Annual Contest), but from that year only.
Though I also like older music, that might not be the case for every user as some of you may prefer recent music, and I don't think that one should force other users to send older music just because I want to listen to a specific kind of songs.
 
I find my interest in this contest as a friendly oportunity to discover new songs/artists, and I honestly don't care at all if the song is from the 60's or from 2014, so I would clearly vote to change this rule.
 
2- A) not to follow the group, as I follow only my own opinion  : those who win should be the preffered organizers, only if that doesn't happen a bid should be made. Why? Because it's a contest, and the winner should be awarded of course 

A)  and A)

here my choice:
Question 1
(a) I liked it and would like all TISC Open Contests in the foreseeable future to continue with that rule
Question 2
(a) The previous winner should always have the first option to host the contest

The comeback is on
 

Q1: a) definitely. As a person who loves music a lot, I am keen to discover some forgotten, or be reminded of some great gems from different countries. I guess most of users are young and do not like "old" music, but in my opinion, one of the aims of TISC Open is also to show other people what you nation, people.. have produced over the years... Whichever decade it was, I am sure all of you can find something; and even if you don't know you can explore and that's the fun also. I get it that many of us want to win, and are afraid how the song will be received... But let's learn about each others cultures! If it is folk, rock, ska, reggae, pop, metal... or whichever genre I am sure we can also broaden our views and music taste.
 
Q2: tough one, but I vote for a). Let the winner has right to choose whether to host or decline the hosting rights.
