Is there a day-by-day schedule for Ashgabat anywhere? The official website is full with nicknames of Ashgabat (Pearl of this, City of that etc), but I can't find a simple schedule :p

 You can find the preliminary schedule at page 8 and 9.

Interesting, so this is how it goes :p

 

Quote

10. Anthem

Each Member Federation should bring two (2) national flags sized 100x150cm and the national anthem on CD/USB drive. This must be submitted upon arrival/accreditation to Organizing Committee (OC).

 

CD or USB drive :lol: They can't email an MP3 or something? Anyway, in my opinion GAISC should have a database with national anthems of every nation which the individual sports federations can use :p

I know this preliminary schedule came out in August, but looking at the entry list in Women's 45 kg and 81 kg, the B and C groups don't seem so necessary.

Dictatorship-inspired logo, of course.

It's just an accurate depiction of Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow snatching 225kg, stop crying.

Well he is better than all the Turkmenistan teams in those sports to be honest

the final start list

https://www.iwf.net/wp-content/uploads/downloads/2018/10/Start_Book_Ashgabat.pdf

 

Ilya Ilyin is still there but apparently he is not going to actually lift anything here. and only 8 Iranians here. instead of 10 and those 3 weightlifters who were supposedly wasn't included in the original entry list are still absent. we will know the truth about it soon. but I believe our federation probably made a big big administrative mistake in registering them. :facepalm:

 

interesting that Martirosyan put 440kg as entry ! which means he has to start at least with 420. he is either very dumb or in a very great shape. big challenge for Nurudinov. and guess who is back !!! Andrei Aramnau after 4 years ! :yikes:

 

out of our 8 weightlifters, one of them is in Group B. and from the rest I believe Moradi has a very good chance for the gold (unless he bombs out) Hashemi also will have a good chance for gold (or at least a medal) if Ilyin really doesn't show up.. in this weight Beiralvand has the 3rd entry behind Ilyin and Hashemi. still hard to believe he is a medal chance ! also a very slim chance for Barari. the rest are just here to make the numbers . one of the worst teams we sent in past few years. :( but at least most of them are young. and suppose to be talented. and this is one of the rare years in which we are not a medal chance in super heavyweight. last year we had 2 on the podium ... :cry: Salimi is retired now and Alihosseini is a bit injured and took a break.

 

this is the list of weightlifters with the highest entry in each weight

 

55kg: :PRK OM Yun Chol, 285kg

61kg: :CHN QIN Fulin & :COL MOSQUERA Francisco & :VIE THACH Kim Tuan, 310kg

67kg: :CHN CHEN Lijun, 330kg

73kg: :CHN SHI Zhiyong, 348kg

81kg: :CHN LYU Xiaojun & LI Dayin & :BLR ASAYONAK Petr & :EGY MAHMOUD Mohamed & :ARM KARAPETYAN Andranik, 370kg

89kg: :BLR KHADASEVICH Pavel, 373kg

96kg: :IRI MORADI Sohrab, 410kg

102kg: :IRI HASHEMI Ali & :KAZ ILYIN Ilya, 400kg

109kg: :ARM MARTIROSYAN Simon, 440kg

+109kg: :GEO TALAKHADZE Lasha, 460kg

    • I can finally piggyback off @vinipereira predictions to deliver my own    I'll be honest. I was rather busy during most of the awards season, so I wasn't able to see as much as I wanted to, or normally would have been able to. Therefore, I'm relying heavily on pundit predictions and general feel this time around.     If there was a category for best poster artwork, my nominees would be: Bugonia, Eddington, Dracula, The Sound of Falling, Sirāt   I'd give best animal acting to Pipa from Sirāt   And my favorite scenes from the year are... Kids getting bewitched, Weapons Gladys getting her just desserts, Weapons Car chase, One Battle After Another I Lied To You, Sinners Turn that shit up, Sirāt Playing with arrows, The Love That Remains Street dance, The Life of Chuck Cold open, Warfare Final scene, The Plague Ship prayer, The Testament of Ann Lee
    • The article literally corrects other ones claiming it will be a case. Trump isn't and won't banned.
    • Semifinals   March 15th 20:00 ET/2:00 CET:  United States vs.  Dominican Republic March 16th 20:00 ET/2:00 CET:  Venezuela vs.  Italy   *Images courtesy of Sportsnet
    • March 14th Results   Quarterfinal 3:    Puerto Rico 6-8  Italy   Highlights:       Quarterfinal 2:    Venezuela 8-5  Japan   Highlights:     Updated Bracket:
    • Yeah same story. Good for Venezuela. 
    • Btw I highly recommend the short film 'Butterfly' which has a story related to the Olympics.  
    • Once again here I am with my annual Oscar predictions post. Last year I predicted 13/23 winners which was my worst results ever by far. For the second consecutive year Brazil is nominated so I'm hoping that 'The Secret Agent' wins something, especially because it's a film from my home state. I watched 34 out of the 35 feature films (only 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' missing) and all 15 short films nominated, so I leave a personal ranking of all the categories.   ["will win" is my prediction / "could win", my alternate prediction / "should win", my personal ranking / "shoud have been nominated", a way to remember other notable work].    
    • I don't know how soon that'll be though... and until then not holding my breath. Really wanted to see Caissie crushing balls at the Olympics, he deserved it for his play this tournament, and now he might not get the opportunity to. He's still young, but this will probably be Canada's best chance, and he'll only be around for Brisbane 2032 at best considering the bids in contention for 2036.    It just sucks, constant disappointment for the Canadians this year with barely anything to cheer for, and coming so close only to come up short... I'd rather us have just lost in the group stage 
    • I think instead of allocating 2 spots here (for Americas) WBSC should have allowed 3 spots (rather than 2) in the 2027 WBSC premiere. ( 1 each for Asia, Europe & Americas)   That way it would have ensured two things : ONLY the top team from Americas gets the quota here ( deservedly so) additionally it would have allowed teams from Americas a second shot at qualification from the 2027 premieres.    Getting only 1 tournament , more than 2 years ahead of olympics is very harsh on the teams from Americas.
