What about posts that have been deleted? Are they counted in these stats?

No, I answered something like "I don't care about heights"

Hurdles are an Olympic sport apparently

Yes (unless they decide to change the schedule).

This guy takes over the forum and suddenly you only need 100 posts to become a Totalldrug addicted instead of 1000 , what a coincidence!

Next events will finally count for the Olympic qualification. Everyone will start from zero but, just for the sake of it, let's see which teams would qualify with the current ranking: top 4 + best of each continent among those ranked 5th-16th + possible host quotas (max. 8 athletes) Men's foil: + (5th), (6th), (9th), (14th) Women's foil: + (5th), (7th), (8th), (6th) since no African is in top 16 Men's epee: + (5th), (7th), (8th), (6th) since no African is in top 16 + maybe as host Women's epee: + (5th), (7th), (16th), (6th) since no African is in top 16 + maybe as host Men's sabre: + (5th), (6th), (7th), (14th) + maybe as host Women's sabre: + (5th), (7th), (13th), (6th) since no African is in top 16 + maybe as host

Someone from country X get a good result? Shame on them, they are part of an advanced doping program and stealing medals from honest and hardworking German athletes. Thankfully Germany is the only country where they care about the health of their athletes. A German is caught doping? It doesn't matter, countries X, Y, Z surely have far more advanced doping programs, Germans are victims of their system. (citation from "The world according to a great fan of the Olympics")

PKF...and it's not really asking too much, considering that only the last edition inside the Olympic qualification period will count for the final Olympic ranking. In my humble opinion athletes should have known before this competition if it counted for the ranking or not (Europeans at least already know it).

Do we know when the 2020 edition is scheduled?

Maybe he's retiring, but also keep in mind that with Sobolev already out, Fischnaller could have finally won the "big" Parallel globe today (5 times second, 2 times third but he never won it).

Yes, I also added the live results link now.

Fiamingo in final, first podium in two years...

"My proposal" is to have another reaction, not posts with a hundred images. And I would imagine that people are more likely to not post anymore on the forum because they get tired of reading the same **** over and over from a few ******** rather than because they get a few thumbs down.

^This is an abuse of pics, and it already happens on the forum (people who post several images and/or videos in a post without spoilers, or people who quotes entire posts full of them)

The one on the right would be perfect imo

Since you are adding reactions, I think there should be one like this:

Discarding the two worst results Wierer 846 Vittozzi 844 (already sure to gain exactly 8 points tomorrow, so she will be at 852) Olsbu 780 Kuzmina 779

So many announcements from her and then she does the opposite of what she announced

For a long term bet contest: Biathlon 1- Excluding relays, A. Kuzmina will start in at least one race during season 2019/20 (World Cup + WCH) [YES - 10]

Looks like they decided to double the World Championships points for the Olympic Ranking: https://www.uci.org/docs/default-source/official-documents/tokyo-2020---olympic-games/olympic-rankings_track_final_en_as-of-26-11-18.pdf?sfvrsn=be99ad8b_16

Brother and sister won today. W podium:

It would be the 2nd time in 3 seasons that Herlings can't win the title because he injures himself. And in 2018 he was lucky that his annual dumb crash caused him to skip only 1 GP. That's the difference between him and a great champion like Cairoli.
