Hm. I think you still should RP at the games. You sent a delegation and so, you might as well RP. If you think that people would get angry or peeved off about what you write, then, do something a bit more domestic. RP about the Olympic fever within your nation - which gives you the open door to talk what you want to talk about.

West Phoenicia, where and when did I ever refer to bathrooms in Ndaku being less cleaner than "toilet bowels at truck stops"? Why did you even bring conditions of bathrooms up at all?

With the realization that you know almost nothing of Ndaku ICly, allow me to give you a brief overview: I'm alternating between the year 2016 A.D. and 2110 A.D. Ndaku in 2016 would rank 0.88 HDI and 0.94 in 2110 A.D. So, at least in all major cities, bathrooms would be very well maintained, considering the investment in public facilities by the Federal government.

So, next time, if you're going to mention a country in your RP, at least refer to their results or know at least a thing or two about the nation before doing so. You're free to telegram me questions about Ndaku if you are wondering. I've written an extensive factbook over Ndaku in 2110 A.D. that should answer potential questions about the nation.

Mmm, yes, I was wondering why we had come under special treatment in regards to the state of our public facilities - I've always RPed Wray's public toilets as being spectacularly maintained.

Apparently it was intended to reflect some form of a broadcasted gossip program.

Who would like to have a massive Havenic expat population, with the drugs and crime problems they bring with them?

CH:
Do you have any description of the triathlon course or marathon course for RP reasons?

There was an error in the calculation of the final standings for Sailing—Men’s Sailboard and Women’s Sailboard on Day 9. These standings have now been corrected. In the men’s sailboard, Kruno Babic (IOA) won the gold medal and Brian Bollinger (DUN) the bronze medal; in the women’s sailboard, Meredith Karomweteagra (PAP) won the bronze medal rather than Luiza Assunção Santos (AVU).

[The Serbian Empire]

It's been a while since I've seen any new results.

[CoraSpia]

It's been a while since I've seen any new results.

I didn't want to be the one to say it, but yeah, this is getting a bit ridiculous now.

Let's not go through this again, please. CH can take as long as is needed.

I never knew that that was how hosting worked...

I'm going to err on the side of the former Olympic hosts speaking to this topic. And so far, it looks like yes, hosts can take some time, and that's fine.

In the meantime, there's plenty of stuff to roleplay about. Like athletes getting Eskola, you know, the likes.

[Commerce Heights]

I got sick and wasn’t able to do much of anything yesterday. I haven’t fully recovered yet, so I don’t know how soon I’ll be able to finish Day 11.

Well, it is. I don’t have a service-level agreement.

That's fine. If their's actually something preventing you from scorenating at a certain time, sorry for being a dick about it.

I hope you feel better soon! I was just wondering what was going on.

Personally, speaking for us Astyrians, we were appreciative of the extra time to get more RP in, but feel guilty that it was at the expense of your health. Hope you feel better.

The final of Swimming—Men’s 50 m Freestyle was mistakenly omitted from Day 7’s results; it has now been added and the medal table amended accordingly.

[Liventia]

CH, Jake Bexley qualified second in QF heat 3 in the men's keirin but doesn't appear in the semis. Bruno Muller (KRN) in third was put through in his place.

[Eastfield Lodge]

Just wanting to check, do medals get added to the tally after the gold medal is awarded (like in Mixed Doubles badminton, I just got a bronze but the gold medal match hasn't been done yet, and it hasn't been added to the tally)?

In order to correct this without substantially affecting the rest of the competition, I’ve resimmed the semi-final until I got a result in which the other five riders finished in the same relative order. Jake Bexley (LEN) finished 4th in the semi-final, leaving the places of all other riders unchanged. I then repeated this procedure for the 7th–12th place final; Jake Bexley (LEN) finished 5th in that final, which means Brenton Shiflett (BRI) has moved up to 4th.

Correct.

Okay, just so I understand that clearly, if Bexley had won his rescorinated semi you would've ignored the result unless Asselineau, Bowen, Karanakov, Allen and Morris finished 2nd to 6th in that order as well? I can't say I'm not disappointed with that given he was an 82 skill, to be honest.

[Vilita and Turori]

Could have just RPed him as a DQ

Theres a lot going on mistakes happen, If its not easy to undo RP it thats half the fun.


p.s. i think the flags for the womens cycling spring podium didn't get updated to reflect finishing perhaps c-n-p oversight not a big deal but if you are a perfectionist it may warrant attention

That's the thing though, other events have been rescorinated and medal positions moved about. So why not here too?
