15 events and half the world already has a medal, at least something good about only allowing very few athletes per country  

Surprise, surprise... De Tullio is the 1st italian medal at this YOG!  

This is the disgrace of the "information age" 

The problem is not what he can do, but how his ideas make other people do what they do.

Brazil is the most dangerous country in the world for LGBT people to live in. No other country registered such a high rate of crimes against LGBT people, and to top it off, homicide rates are among the highest in the world (and they are the highest in the world when it comes to gay and transgender people). In such a hostile environment, he adds fuel to the hatred against LGBT people. Last week, there was a huge protest on the streets against Bolsonaro, but a number of people in a subway platform chanted "faggots, take care, Bolsonaro will kill your kind". One of the major reasons for people to vote on him is that he promised everybody will be allowed to have a gun. Usually people think this will keep them safe, but in reality we'll have even more people murdering gays, transgenders, lesbians and women (Bolsonaro is also a misogynistic pig, for those who don't know already).

Too bad it's some combined event so no single event really feels important, but ok. It's moving, and the ocean/sea as backdrop is fantastic  

Don't wanna be too excited, but it seems to work with firefox

As ever, strenght is not in numbers when it comes to the Chinese League of World Cup jumping.
 

 

Only a matter of time before Canada wins by default

Goodbye boxing, see you in 2028.

And I was right:
21th in volley
15th rowing
7th horses
 
But unexpectedly 3rd in basket!
 
I want to thank @africaboy that chivalrously "forget" to make predictions in order to allow a girl to win a medal in the women prediction contest, I really appreciated it! Remember that it's not necessary to do the same thing in in women volley prediction because I'm almost last
 
Great job @thepharoah and @rybak gold medals well deserved! Wonderful perfomance by Poland team!
 
A month full of predictions and a medal for our manager @Wanderer: well done (and very good the new system for basket).
 
 

I would be willing to bet some money on Piti at least still wanting to show his jersey around for a year before retiring  

won their 1 rst match just like basket , the volley improves in africa

I think that it's not a bad idea to eliminate the TTT (where team is a "club"), but obviously I had preferred its exchange with national teams time trial. The idea for a sort of cycling relay... maybe not that bad, (I know this is going to be quite unpopular), according to the previews of the event it could have been thought better, but still it may be good.

Giving a casual look on the UWW website, I found a lot of interesting things. First of all, 2019 WCH will be held in Astana  from 14-22 September. In 2020, according to what is published on the website, these should be the dates for the Preolympic tournament:
 
March 13-15, Africa/Oceania (at El Jadida, :MAR )
March 19-22, Europe
March 27-29, Asia
April 03-05, PanAmerica
April 30 - May 03, World Preolympic

Since olympic qualification for Tokyo is started and some sport are already giving out direct quotas, maybe in the home page a banner can be inserted displaying which is the next event to be hold/that is being hold that will give out direct olympic qualification, so that everyone interested can keep in line (obviously, if a total calendar exists).
 
(I would add it, if possible, under the menu below the totallympics logo, covering the whole length)

Apart from the many questions about these shenanigans, the whole format of a tournament like this is strange and makes no sense
 
Just have X teams in the tournament, divide them into X groups and let the best X teams per group go on to the knock-out rounds.

This's Nigeria 1st ever victory in their WC history , for Senegal this's the 5th ever victory as they defeated Malaysia, Zaire, Tunisia and Nigeria  history was really made today for Africa 

My idea was, in that case, to use the athletes as "double starters", speaking as ISSF would do, so no quotas are taken away from other countries  One thing I really don't like in the Olympics is the maximum number of entries per event, like in athletics (although, I have to say, I don't know if they are really respected or not)

Let’s make a poll. Do you think it would be fair allowing nations who qualifies the largest boat (k4?) to enter a second boat in the other events if they use the same athletes?  (That is, without using other quotas). Or a boat in general, if for some reason they did not qualify for example in K1?. Personally I think it is, for all the sports in general: I think it will allow best nations and athletes to compete, some quotas will be given to enlarge the universality and I think that the mean level goes up this way. On the other hand, if a nation is absolutely dominating, it is like gifted medals, and I’m not sure everybody will agree with this.
