Euskirribakondara as Cyborg Holland is lamenting 4th places too.... in Cycling Men's Road Race and in Weightlifting Men's 56Kg.

However, we won a BRONZE!!!!! in Weightlifting 62Kg, with Joan Kargarestela.
It is our first-ever medal at the Olympics!!! Yay!

Anyway, we also wanted to congratulate Cafundéu, because so far, everything is going pretty well with the scorinations (except for one women's match of Women Basketball, which was played on delay on the backyard of the Cafundelense Olympic Committee XD).

This is true for the women's handball team - they had a bye. (Which means, for God's sake, check the GROUP DRAW in the results thread first if your team's "missing"!) However, he raises an interesting point with the volleyball - Group 3 of the women's indoor volleyball competition seems to have not been scorinated.

Sorry about that - didn't realize I was supposed to do it. It's my second Olympics with teams, and during the Winter Olympics all of my teams showed up. Yeah, I know, I'm feeling like a newb. Thanks for the info! :D

No problem, you weren't the first person to do that and most definitely won't be the last. Just directed at everybody in general to try to make things a bit easier for Caf. Hope you enjoy the games! :P

Agree about the first thing... Some countries have just signed up 500 athletes and I see them winning medals now altough they don't RP or not much, and I RP quite much and I think my RP's are good enough (not great, but OK) and I win nothing. I have signed up "just" 275 athletes. Or something around that.

They BOTH had byes on the first day, and xkoranate does not include teams in the tables if they have yet to play a game.
