What is the current record?

So again no Africa? (last time was 2010, I think)

Honestly I think it depends on the user. Since this is a "song" contest, the video shouldn't matter that much. Personally, I don't care one bit about the video.

A few hours to the Oscars, I leave my predictions here. This was mostly a disappointing year for cinema in my opinion, and the first time in some years I didn't watch more than 95% of the nominees (mainly because I didn't had the time). Anyway, here's my picks, and I hope to do better than 17/24 of last year - I did this in a hurry so don't mind possible mistakes. ["will win" is my prediction / "could win" is my alternate prediction / "should win" is my personal ranking from what I've watched / "shoud have been nominated" it's a way to remember other notable movies]. Edited with correct predictions. Managed to get the same score of last year (17/24), missing 7 categories. I picked the correct winner as the "alternate" prediction in 6 of those. The only one who was really surprising for me was Heaven is a Traffic Jam on the 405 winning Documentary Short (but it's a great little film and the best of this category, so I'm glad it won). Three Billboards underperforming and Blade Runner 2049 overperforming killed my predictions. Boring ceremony, almost no surprises, and I would prefer Get Out winning Best Picture - but at least wasn't Three Billboards.

Silver for Almir

Exactly, don't know why people think we're gonna lose the south american quota. On the other hand, I think we won't qualify any team in Basketball and might miss 1 (or both) in Handball.

The time has come! After the Winter Olympic frenzy, now the Totallympics' users can select the songs that will compete for the title at the upcoming Annual International Song Contest in Brazil. Not only for the nations registered so far, but also for other Totallympics' users (National Jury registration remains open), it's time to know the songs that will take part in the 10th overall edition of our music contests. We hope you will join us in Brazil 2018!

So far, the Registered Nations list (here) is looking good with 33 countries so far. We hope some others will join us in the next days.

I love Serena, but this award was really ludicrous - the nomination itself was also questionable. Some really bad choices this year.

I took @Werloc's comments very seriously, so there's been indeed some discussion about Algeria's registration in the contest. Not only I talked with @OlympicIRL and @Sindo about this, but also with @bestmen himself. That's why I didn't include Algeria's name in the list of registered nations before (although we have added for now). First of all, there's a portion of our of the Totallympics Song Contests Official Rulebook that talks specifically about the conduct of participarts, including: Anyone is allowed to your own opinions, of course, but no one should disrespect other members/nations when discussing things in this thread (or any thread, for that matter). We recognize that our conduct towards some users in the past may have been "light", but let me assure one thing: we won't have any tolerance for such comments here and, if this happen, not only they will be deleted, but also may be used as base for further suspensions. We really hope things will run smoothly in this edition, after all the Totallympics Song Contest is supposed to be fun and, in a way, bring together our users. Also, as the "president" of the organizing committee, you guys can contact me via PM for any questions regarding our contest.

Can I have Skateboarding (or Surfing) and Table Tennis?

I changed the date a little to Wednesday to give people a couple more of days to recover from the post Olympic depression

Virtue and Moir, the most lovely pair of these Games

Marchei and Hotarek

Disaster for Korea

Brazil also say goodbye to the Games after a 23rd place finish from our team. The goal was top 20, but this still was our best result ever in Bobsleigh (in 4 participations).

Not a great start for South Korea

I only could remember Chloe Kim.

For the second consecutive Games, Isadora will be our flag bearer at the closing ceremony.

Also Japan won just a silver in 2016. Pretty unlikely podium all around, but very nice to see the asian teams.

Also pretty amazing that the gold and silver medals will go to teams that didn't win a single medal in world championships during this entire cycle. This gotta be a first?

What a disastrous end for Great Britain Congrats Japan
