Ok. Thanks for this one. I like your ranking lists very much because when there's a tie, we need to find out how to decide who gets 1st, 2nd and 3rd places respectively. For now, I think I will have to decide it by myself But I will always use your rankings and all the other users suggestions and rankings as an advice obviously

Yes, that's exactly the purpose of these polls!!! I'll try to make around 10-15 polls like that and we'll see how it works and if people here are interested in them, we'll continue... This is a kind of buildup to Paris 2024 so the plan is having exactly 329 events included, according to Paris 2024 programme. https://stillmedab.olympic.org/media/Document Library/OlympicOrg/News/2020/12/Paris-2024-Event-Programme.pdf And then we will have some kind of medal table and youtube video archives with our champs of the champs here. You are right with changing weights in wrestling so many times. Trying to avoid this problem here, I will use this wikipedia list, showing current olympic program. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_freestyle_wrestling#Super_heavyweight The same with boxing, weightlifting and others... And I obviously don't know much about many sports so if you're interested I will always look for your comments and suggestions in every poll, sports like wrestling, weightlifting, taekwondo, judo above all, if I remember your interests correctly And I'm waiting for comments and suggestions from all the other users as well, ofc

C’mon Jasmi Joensuu Good luck for her, after those Beijing disaster!!! I wilk cheer her on today!!!

SPOILERS: / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / Poll #3 will be about Equestrian - Eventing Individual So we are waiting for @dcro indepth analysis here if you find time for us :-) Then badminton men's singles @Griff88 Women's gymnastics uneven bars @thiago_simoes Men's C1 canoe slalom @hckošice And one category in men's wrestling freestyle but here I really don't know which one choose first @MHSN any suggestions for that??? ;-)

@phelps thank you for your ranking list again!!! I agree with Flessel on top. But why did you place Timea Nagy so low? She is the only one who is a double olympic champion in this event.

We tried this with them here in Poland before. Ain’t worked.

And here he is beating The Hero of Tonga in the final

I hope you are right. but i’m not sure what happens when Trump comes back in 2024.

And here is Klitschko in action in Atlanta 1996.

@Vektor I must admit I'm very interested in how you vote in this one :-)

Time for Event #2 in our IMAGINARY SUMMER OLYMPICS series. These are olympic champions in certain event. Imagine that all these champions are on the top of their game at the very same moment in time. Who would have won gold? Be aware that the voting ends at Sunday Feb 27th 10 a.m. CET. There were questions where these imaginary olympics take place. In Poland, obviously. Warsaw and around. Our medal table after 1 event: 1-0-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1

@phelps you probably do know better than "the popular vote" and Balado was the best one here. But it is somehow nice that Klitschko has won the first gold of the games for exactly today. I must admit I haven't randomly chosen this particular boxing event for a first poll this week. We have sadly seen here in Poland what is coming as soon as Beijing olympics finish. So at least this non-important-at-all small success for today.

I have decided to continue with the polls. @phelps is 100% right. We all need some relief. It's a pity that the politics thread is the hot topic even on this website now :-(

The voting in Poll #1 has ended. Looks like we have the results of the first event of our Imaginary Summer Olympics. BOXING - Men's Super Heavyweight 1. Wladimir Klitschko UKR 2. Roberto Balado CUB 3. Anthony Joshua GBR 3. Lennox Lewis CAN Thanks for voting! Medal table after 1 event 1-0-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1

Imaginary Summer Olympics - Poll #1a - The Games Must Go On - yes or not? Due to what is going on in Ukraine and across - let's call it - Eurasia right now, should we keep making these Imaginary Summer Olympics Polls or should we get rid of them and focus on helping those who we should help in real life these days and not waste time on useless things. This question was raised back in 1972 and I personally still don't know what the correct answer was back then. And now it's time to repeat it.

He should have kept his mouth shut yesterday in the first place. They say: never drink, when you drive. Some would add: never drink, when you twit.

My today's evening TV schedule: CNN, BBC News, TVN 24, i24, France24, Euronews etc. etc... The olympic games has ended, the dark times has started, feels like 1936 somehow...

Last moments to vote in this one. Voting ends at 8 p.m. CET.

If I were you, I would think more about Ukrainians than Russians at this very day, today. Russians ordinary people are not the one who seeks shelter from the bombs falling on their heads today, you know. Safety first, then we will think about poor people who will suffer from "economy sanctions". At least noone will shoot them in the head, you know.

I have never understood why Dutch hadn't kicked all the Russian business out of the Netherlands after they shut down the plane carrying so many of your homies. Business first, isn't it? Don't be angry at me, that's nothing personal, I just don't understand this thing.

Take care, @Illya all the best wishes for you and your close ones

Anyone wants to share his thoughts on this one? 😉

In Poland, obviously, ;-)

Ice hockey? Really? After Tokyo, I thought you're land of golfers now ;-)

Thanks a lot. Here is English translation via Google Translate, if anyone's is interested. Niklas Edin Now Niklas Edin can also bet - on billiards Of: Linus Norberg , Hans Abrahamsson , Mattias Karlsson , Tomas Ros Published: February 19 Updated: February 19th SPORTBLADET BEIJING / STOCKHOLM. They have won everything that can be won. But Team Edin has no plans to quit - but the skipper may also invest in billiards. - I play a lot of billiards, says Niklas Edin. Most World Cup and European Championship gold. And now also an Olympic gold, the only thing that was missing in Lag Edin's prize locker. The Swedes have now won everything that can be won and are one of the world's best curling teams of all time. If the win in Beijing was the final destination for the close friends? - No, we have not said that. We will see what the life situation looks like for us, but right now it indicates that we are tough as usual, says Oskar Eriksson and continues: - We have not said what we want to do, we will evaluate it after the season. Right now we're just going to enjoy the moment. "Have nothing else for me" The next big championship is the World Cup in Las Vegas in early April. Christoffer Sundgren also believes that there are no plans to close down. - There is probably a lot left to win. Well, we can pull it off again. We have not actually discussed anything. But I have nothing else for me. You can make more money on an engineering job that I have studied for, but it is more fun with curling. Can bet on billiards However, skipper Niklas Edin may make a small career change. To also bet on - billiards. - Yes maybe not instead but it would be fun to combine a little, I play a lot of billiards which is a little more gentle on the body. It has also given a lot to challenge the skull a little more than curling, which is a mixture of mental and physical sports. But I will probably continue with curling as well, it's a bit too fun.
