I nearing completion of my PDF results collection (based off what’s available online still), but there’s many games I can’t find PDF results for. So if any of you possess any of the following (or know someone who does, or somewhere I can find them), I’d greatly appreciate it if you could share them with me somehow Organizations that are helpful (and on my good side): FISU, GAISF, MicroPulse. Organizations that suck ass and that are dead to me: CIJM, Qatar NOC, Tissot, CISM, and MSL (who apparently doesn’t even exist anymore ) “Sport has the power to change the world.

Why should they organize an event that clearly goes against their interest, scheduling-wise? #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two years of boring nothing (I guess we get one Olympics, so yay ) That's a bit of an overreaction. Moving Tokyo doesn't change nearly as much in terms of 'boring nothing' as all sports (basically) coming to a total halt for as long as it takes. If sports at some point resume and slowly get back to their regular seasons and competitions, there once again is a shitload of stuff to watch, whether the Olympics (and due to that the other multi-sports events) were moved or not. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I don’t watch much sports outside of multi-sports games, so it does for me . I probably watch a competition or two every week, but that’s about it. I go all in on multi-sports games, so these changes do mean a lot for the few us who love multi-sports games. Like you said though, there is another way to look at this. 2022, 2023 are going to be jam-packed years of multi-sports games. Fly_like_a_don 1 “Sport has the power to change the world.
