    If you count Rugby Sevens as part of the wider rugby ecosystem, then I’d probably place it in front of handball.

    It looks like the same results system Atos used for Tokyo 2020 and Beijing 2022.
  3. Olympian1010
    Yeah, but why spend all that money to watch in Korea, when you can spend all your time watching online with us

    Germany already has the critically beloved The Teacher’s Lounge as it entry (which also made the shortlist). I think they made the right choice there. The “nationality” of films is a weird subject. The one film per nation rule benefits some (Cote D’Ivoire and Bhutan for instance), but complicates the process for other’s. Plus, many films have multiple nations attached to their production.

    Official training for sliding sports should get underway in the next 36 hours I believe, so I guess we are due for a results system. My guess is that it will either be SwissTiming (sportresult as mentioned by @heywoodu) or Atos given those have historically been the IOC’s timing/IT partners.

    It’ll be close I think. It’s just such a great year in film. Many countries with more than one worthy film.

    Tends to be counted with the Spanish language countries in the US.

    Four Daughters won the jury award for best international film at the film festival I attended. I’d seen the documentary before hand and quite liked it (I gave it 4/5 stars). My favorite from the festival was The Teacher’s Lounge.

    It probably depends on what that title means to a player/country… I wouldn’t be shocked if many Puerto Ricans could still name the 2016 women’s singles gold medalist for instance

    They’ll probably post a results system in a few days. They aren’t really behind schedule in that regard.

    Peacock only has figure skating on their streaming schedule at the moment, so I guess I’ll be watching the Olympic Channel.

    @heywoodu Not sure if this is any better, but it was what the IOC had posted up until a few days ago: YOG Schedule integrated_ENG.pdf

    I solve this problem by being agnostic/atheist

    Independence leaning party wins Presidential election Taiwan (for third time in a row): https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/polls-open-taiwans-critical-elections-watched-closely-by-china-2024-01-13/

    There just isn’t a lot of opportunity in that event. It’s not surprising that there’s only 12-15 (maybe 20 in Olympic years) entries in that event. Many NOCs and NFs are going to enter events where they have the greatest possible ROI. I’m a proponent of sending as many athletes as possible in as many events as possible, but I understand the logic in the other entry method as well.

    Or find a way to split the race into two divisions…

    Best I can do at the moment: https://olimpiyatkomitesi.org.tr/Upload/Olimpik/339617_Gangwon_2024_program.pdf I might have a more detailed copy saved away somehow, but I’ll have to look for it.

    It’s kind of ridiculous too given that the IWGA, PanamSports, CIJM, OCA, etc. can basically provide full streaming of their events at this point. Honestly, the last winter EYOF might have had better streaming coverage.
  19. Olympian1010
    should also be included in that group for their treatment of migrants in the Mediterranean...

    I attended my first film festival this week. It was a pretty neat experience. I got the chance to see a lot of international films that were on my list to see. I'm not sure how it compares to others internationally, but I thought it was pretty well organized/programed.

    Some info on the opening ceremony: https://olympics.com/ioc/news/programme-for-the-gangwon-2024-opening-ceremony-unveiled
  22. Olympian1010
    I won't be gaslight like this
  23. Olympian1010
    Well, this ought to be interesting...
  24. Olympian1010
    Honestly, that’s more on the FIS. It seems like a really bad scheduling move on their part.

    Nice to have you back after a short break @owenp_23 I was starting the fell lonely as the only super active American user again
