Hi, I have an idea for a nice little game during the WOG. Maybe you also want to participate, so I share it with you. I just started to write down every NOC, that athletes I saw during the competition. I am curious how many “exotic” nations I could find. Day -2: - just curling Day -1: - curling & moguls Day 0 : - I didn't watch opening ceremony (If you watch it, you probably caught them all!) At the end of the games it could be interessting kind of olympic diary.

How much free storage does Totallympics have? @Sindo

I watched some documentary at german TV about China and Olimpics controversy etc. and they said "China is first COUNTRY, that organise both summer and winter games."

I just read Totallympics to get all the news.

Your profile picture says it all! There are still 6 days before nordic combined, so maybe there is a chance for him.

J. Boe + L.Tandrevold had close contact to someone possitive. https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/sports/biathlon-norways-boe-identified-close-contact-covid-case-2022-02-03/

with some troubles to find the right line.

The same for me.

Sara Takanashi - Ryōyū Kobayashi in ski jumping. Anybody who isn't norwegian in cross-country. :D Jessica Diggins , Iivo Niskanen , Federico Pellegrino . Everybody from "small" wintersports nations.

I will start day -2 with curling of course. Further day will be easy: wake up about 8-9 am (CET) to watch biathlon/cross-country live after that it is time for ski-jumping/short-track/luge evening session. After it is time for on-demand replays of the early action alpine ski/snowboard whatever. And some curling matches. Maybe hockey. "Luckily" - I have only part-time job, so most of days free. Basically the same program as for Tokyo. But more easy to follow.

Hard choice for me. Torino was the first WOG I really watched, and I enjoyed it completely. Vancouver - I was completely hyped for and the games delivered. Sochi first game with on demand and streaming and I could watch everything I want and like but and I also opened up to new (for me) sports. On the other hand doping scandal put it shadows over it. PyeongChang was nice and fine, but somehow I missed something special, maybe I got more delusional about the Olympics? So i voted for nostalgia and Vancouver, but I like to vote ex-equo with Torino.

Watching his year World Cup it is not expected, that Germany will win gold in Biathlon. But men showed up trend, and someone like Lesser could perform in relay much better than his paper form. And when others miss everything could be possible. Also Herrmann concentrated her training completely for Olympics with a lot of high altitude training. So I think it is possible but rather rare.

Poland just do not reject ANY quota! :D

" If there are less than 12 nations with at least four male competitors, then the next nation with three allocated quota places will be allocated an additional quota place until there are twelve qualified teams." By now there are only 9 teams qualified: . So with three quotas should get fourt one, but what than? has only three eligible athlets and no other NOC has three quotas, several with two, but if they really want 12 teams, there are no quotas left to do this. Quotas and rellocations are so confusing to me.

Now i got it. It's 1+1+2 = 4.

How can China attend the relay with 1+2=3 quotas?

Found the full article they were talking about. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41893-021-00696-5.pdf?origin=ppub If someone interested. Short summary: sustainbility is decreasing slowly and SLC was the most sustainable since 2002.

Conratulations to Kobayashi for constant and good jumping! All other had one or more bad jumps. Every year german media make a lot of pressure to their jumpers and even they are good, they can handle it.

First two weekends of cross-country WC was nice, in my opinion. A little more feeling for international competiton, but now the flashbacks of norwegian domination are back.

Halvor Egner Granerud miss to qualify to first Ruka event. :O Losing even to the Ipcioglu - his 2nd start in WC. Karl Geiger has some luck to build early advantage in WC. Last week Ryoyu Kobayashi DSQ, now Granerud. Polish team is beeing a mess. Polish coach: Finland jumps also terrible.

Thank you both!
