Provisional Standing after Day 8 available here Dear Contestants! @hckosice@intoronto@George_D@Chatan@Olympian1010@Federer91@vinipereira@dcro@heywoodu@tuniscof I need to ask you for apologies as we have quite a big controversy on my side. It is the case of question #47 - because of the wrong deadline it was possible (and that happened) to answer the question knowing, not predicting the answer. That was my mistake not to set up an earlier deadline, which I did in similar cases of other questions. My proposal is to cancel that question so that everybody get 0 points for that. Another question, also connected with curling, is the question #67, where it says about round of 16, which firstly won't exist, as we have round of 24 and round of 12, secondly, the answer for what I meant, so the third round (in the case round of 12) is also known as two YOG medalist may play against each other in round of 24. That's obviously not predicted by me earlier on. That is also my proposal to cancel that question. Once again, I ask you for apologies. And considering the fact that I'm both the manager and the contestant, I would like @Wumo who has an access to all the answers, including mine, to give his objective opinion on that matter as a more experienced Prediction Contest Manager.

What does the Rule 50 says now?

When I was thinking, what could be the question today, I was sure about nationality of Diego :P Blind shoots with Davos & Engelberg as well as Swiss ice hockey. Mistakes on Olympic Capital (but the next questions said my way of thinking was somewhat right - HQ in 1915 because of WWI, but I thought they called it officially just after the war in 1922) and Vreni Schneider (I thought about Cologna as I was sure of his four gold and something more - that something more made me sure Ammann is wrong answer - and I was totally unsure of anything about Schneider).

I think I wrote it to somebody from your country a few months ago about that - you in Hungary won't understand the situation in most of the countries. In your country you have a big waterpolo event in almost every year, you have your league in the national TV, the LEN Cup and Champions League as well, your players are nominated to the best sportspeople of the country... On the contrary we have for example your "jó barát" - Poland - with six teams playing in league but one absolutely favorite for the win. Still, last time a Polish club played in Champions League qualifications was like... three or four seasons ago. Girls in waterpolo exist only until some age (max. 16 I suppose) and they play in the co-ed teams with boys. The only one who is playing is in a Slovakian league. Poland has just one professional player - goalkeeper who is retiring these days. The national team of men didn't enter the Euro qualifications because the money is so short they could not have prepared even for the qualification tournament in a way they could do anything positive (the words of our coach I talked with personally). That's totally other world and I think there is much more countries like Poland than like Hungary in a matter of waterpolo.

Provisional Standing after Day 5 available here A comment on question #38 - it said Mixed NOCs Relays while it was just a Mixed Relay in national teams. The question has not been cancelled though as the results are so close they shouldn't have influence on the final table. However, if there will be voices to do so, I will cross the question out of the contest with all contestants getting 0 for that question.

I know who will be covering that event for Totallympics Media. And that won't be me.

I think they did mean 1998 but simply misspelled it. Also the first question was wrong I think - as far as I remember it was 776 BC, bot 796 BC.

Yes, but not under IOA but under ZZX code (which I think doesn't matter for the emoticon code).

The bigger congrats then!

Congrats @Griff88 - now we have more Totallympic Contestants with a bag than without Let me ask you - did you know about the Swiss in Innsbruck or did you hit 10,9? @Olympian1010 - no matter what you do with the price if it will colide with your plans you already have, I keep my fingers crossed for you as I probably lost all the chances for an overall win today (because of missing the first quiz mostly). About myself - I'm ashamed of my answer for #2, my lack of knowledge in #7 and the #9 was a missed blind shot.

First medal of Winter YOG for Poland and second medal of Polish athlete including mixed NOCs. GREAT DAY!!!
