qualify Khilko is going to her 5th Olympics, she is going to be the only athlete there that has competed in every Olympic trampoline competition since its introduction. I think is also qualified now, we already have 3 continents qualified, so one of the continental quotas should go to them.

Actually, in trampoline they are looking to have at least 4 continents represented, so Africa will likely miss out.

I am hoping that Ekaterina Khilko will qualify... She has competed in all Olympics where trampoline was held (since 2000).

But how can you support Sahrawi Republic at the 2016 Olympics if they are not competing? This is not "Supporting small nations", this is "Supporting small nations in Rio". I wanted to do Palestine mostly because of their dressage rider but looks like that shipped has sailed. Now I am going for Liechtenstein as the third nation.

But when someone takes doping then he/she is deliberately cheating. That's completely different sphere.

I'm not her biggest fan either. But banning someone just because he/she is different than others (or different than typical people) is absurd. People are who they are.

Well, this is basically like hoping that FIBA bans all men that are taller than 2 meters and all women that are taller than 1.8 meters... They also have an advantage over typical people. Or like hoping that FIG will ban all flexible women from gymnastics, because most women aren't that flexible.

I shall better choose before all nations are taken. 1. Zimbabwe 2. Palau 3. Palestine

It's hard for me to choose as I am usually supporter of all of them.

Looks like we also missed Cyprus in artistic gymnastics.

The Dragon Prince has been named. What a nation. http://www.people.com/article/bhutan-king-queen-son-name-ceremony

Oops.

List of nations is available in the test thread.

Nothing official yet. It could be anything. Maybe they already granted it to Sri Lanka, maybe their federation thinks that you just need to send an application to get a quota or maybe this is a case of bad journalism. Remember, we already had some (junk) article claiming that Malawi received not one but two wild cards in taekwondo!

Samoa is looking good for the last quota (hopefully).

Woo! Well done Belgium, Jamaica, Iceland and Ireland. Btw, if South Africa refuses it (likely) it will be Egypt that gets it.

We have a little less than 1 year to send votes? bestmen is not going to be happy

Mia Radotić scored 3 Olympic points today. http://www.procyclingstats.com/race/Ronde_van_Gelderland_2016 Nothing to write a poem about, but maybe this could be a sign of good form for upcoming qualification races.

So, these are the questions for the last subdivision. Can Belgium qualify a women's team for the first time since 1948? Can Jamaica make its debut in gymnastics? Can Iceland and Ireland qualify female gymnasts for the first time ever?

Actually Argentina is already in. Azerbaijan and Malaysia currently out.

No idea. Who knows, maybe one of them run the standard for all three?

Wow, South Korea just barely won the individual quota. Meanwhile, qualify for the first time in gymnastics.

Germany 58.648 on uneven bars! Only Russia scored higher than that last year.

Chilean girl had great scores on last two apparatus so she is safely in at the end.
