What absolute joke planning from the IIHF. Either cancel the tournent before hand or enforce a full-on bubble. Though I suppose it would have been too late for that. Either way, making teams forfeit a game after one positive test while letting them stay at a hotel that had a freaking wedding reception going on was just not going to work. Now as a result, most teams are on quarantine and wasted their Christmas. Feel terrible for the kids, hopefully it gets made up during the summer.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Don't know if this has been posted yet but Norway named it's first 7 athletes for the olympic team a few days ago. Men: Johannes Thingnes Bø Tarjei Bø Vetle Sjåstad Christiansen Sturla Holm Lægreid Women: Tiril Eckhoff Ida Lien Marte Olsbu Røiseland Interestingly, Tandrevold still hasn't been named to the team. Also apparently on the men's side, Dale and Bjøntegaard won't compete at the olympics.

Your numbers are correct! As far as I know, Greece doesn't have any more chances of getting quotas unfortunately.

Brazil: Alpine Skiing: 1 Bobsleigh: 5 Cross-Country Skiing: 3 Freestyle Skiing: 1 Skeleton: 1 Czech Republic: Alpine Skiing: 6 Biathlon: 10 Bobsleigh: 5 Cross-Country Skiing: 12 Curling: 2 Figure Skating: 6 Freestyle Skiing: 2 Ice Hockey: 48 Luge: 4 Nordic Combined: 4 Short Track: 1 Skeleton: 1 Ski Jumping: 6 Snowboarding: 5 Speed Skating: 2 I think the lost quota might be from speed skating. I remember you guys had a 3rd skater that was in qualifying position for a period of time. Lithuania: Alpine Skiing: 2 Biathlon: 6 Cross-Country Skiing: 4 Figure Skating: 2

*Long Post Alert!!!* Alright, guess I'm posting everything at once. So I had some free time so I figured I might as well try to make predictions for each event. These are mostly based on this years world cup results and last years world championships. Please keep in mind that my knowledge of alpine skiing and the nordic sports (besides biathlon) isn't the greatest so any advice would be appreciated. Most events were mostly straight forward to predict but a lot of the events (especially in biathlon, short track, and some freestyle skiing and snowboard events) have been very unpredictable this year so that made my job a lot harder. A lot of the events also don't have too much data so far this year so I'll update the predictions once more events are finished.

Should I post my predictions one day at a time, or should I post them all at once?

My bad, should be 49 still. You guys didn't lose any quotas.

Well on the bright side, at least I now have a 2 hour break to sleep each day during the time where there's usually only a single hockey game happening.

Out of all of the sports that had quotas cut, speed skating very well might have had the worst cuts. At least with cutting short track quotas, you still had extra quotas left over once all the relay and starting positions were filled out. Here, there's gonna be at least 14 deserving skaters on the men's side that are going to have their olympic dream shattered because the IOC was too cheap. If you're gonna cut quotas, at least make them reasonable cuts. Reducing the men's speed skating quotas from 100 to 83 is not reasonable.

I pretty much just looked at the world cup rankings for each distance and went down the list until I got to the maximum number of skaters allowed in that distance making sure that I only picked 3 for each country. In the men's 500m, the 3rd Korean is ranked 34th but qualifies because both the Netherland's and China have 4 skaters ahead of him. https://shorttrack.sportresult.com/Rankings.aspx?evt=11213100000092&rep=65310 Edit: Oh wait, now I see what you did! You calculated the results for each individual world cup whereas I just looked at the overall ranking.

Yeah, I did it by NOC. Was it supposed to be by name?

No other nations's gained quotas and the extra quotas instead went to the bigger nations. Even after adding 5 quotas to all the relay teams, it still isn't enough to get to 56 on the men's side. Great Britain is the biggest winner as it gained 2 men's and one women's quota and now has a mixed relay qualified though the 2nd women's quota is definitely not secure. The final World Cup stop is this weekend and there's a good chance there'll be a lot of changes since the worst result gets dropped from the rankings. Hopefully some more nations will be able to qualify. Also on another note, does anybody know what's up with the wikipedia page about the qualification? Their rankings are completely different from the ISU website.

Congrats to the Braves! An incredible story considering they barely made it into the playoffs with only 88 wins. Thank goodness the astros didn't win. Still haven't won a championship without cheating yet. Guess it's hard to win when you don't know what pitch is coming

I'm working on them right now, I'll post it soon!

Game 1 of the world series ends with a convincing 6-2 win by the Braves. Unfortunately for them, their starting pitcher, Charlie Morton, got injured and will be out for the series.

Okay, it's still early but I tried to calculate the olympic quotas.
