    Talk about unworthy competition for Lee

    Pretty bad scheduling with only men's team sprint today. Now we have 40 mins of nothing before the finals.
  3. dcro
    So Turkmenistan will probably finish dead last in men's team sprint, even though they have super modern velodrome. Just wow.
  4. dcro
    I guess we have to see all Turkmen golds (and avoid events where they humiliate themselves).

    Worst part about this "traditional wrestling" is that even athletes don't seem to know the rules... Referees are fixing their positions and belts all the time, making the thing soooo boring...
  6. dcro
    I guess they won't broadcast athletics and track cycling? Something remotely interesting.

    Nah, 30 points is too much.. Line has to be somewhere, and 20 points covers +-10, what should qualify as a close game.
  8. dcro
    Why not? + or - 9, it was a relatively close game! Besides, you only get 2 points for that. The closer you are the more points you get, and it makes more sense that being off by 18 is better than being off by 30 and thus gets some consolation prize. With 20+20 there should be enough importance in choosing the winning side, and yet rewarding your skill to predict how close the game will be.

    You'll get 0 points for 30 points wrong difference. To get any points when predicting the wrong winner you have to be within 19 points.
  10. dcro
    It's somewhat inadequate right now, since you only get 10 points for correct winner and up to 20 for points difference. It should be 20+20. Right now it's possible that you get 18 for predicting wrong winner, while at the same time it's possible that you get 10 for predicting right winner. With 20+20 predicting right winner will give you more points in every scenario.

    taekwondo athlete was leading 22:12, but was disqualified for getting 10 cautions (10/12 opponent's points came from cautions).

    2014 estimate is 0.2% according to wiki. That seems very generous, but then again they have very small population.

    This lighting of the flame failed a bit.
  14. dcro
    They at least have big money source in oil, so it's more like Qatar/Azerbaijan than North Korea.
  15. dcro
    Well, politics aside, it has a nice modern look.
  16. dcro
    It's not finished. Flame is yet to come.
  17. dcro
    Wow
  18. dcro
    I guess they like carpets in Turkmenistan.

    More Akhal-Teke

    Watching this, it's such an irony that Turkmenistan is both the only ex-Soviet country and the only -stan country without Olympic medal.
