  1. Fixed When you tap it it lights up. My father didn't use it at the ceremony, so the tab that keeps it off is still in there, but that's what he said was happening to them after the show. Works for a supplier doing IT.
  2. Hi everyone. My father recently returned from Sochi, where he was working. He attended the OC, and as such received an audience kit, I've taken some pics of it which I'll link here. It includes the medallion. If anyone wants any specific pictures taken, just ask. Here it is. Hope you enjoy.
  3. Probably in the world, I live in the GC and I haven't seen anything about the CWG out and about, apart from the actual clock in Surfers Paradise.
  4. It's fairly good. Not bad by any means. But I've seen a lot of stuff that looks similar to it (Mostly on Dribble, this style must be popular). So in that regard, it's not that unique. But it's good for what it is.
  5. Actually no, the roofs aren't always about spectator comfort. It's more about preventing winds from disrupting the sport being played on the FOP. Spectator comfort is just an added bonus.
  6. MisterSG1, What I'd like to say to you, is best summed up by Lily Allen:
  7. Shape ain't everything. Beijing had an amazing aquatics venue, and it was a rectangular prism as well. Although, I agree, it is a fairly plain building.
  8. mid-May 2014 Honestly tony, just google all your inane questions. It took all of a few seconds for me to find it out.
  9. It's the same thing Tony. Most of Europe operates under an agreement called "Schengen" Basically, once you gain entry to any country in Schengen, you can go anywhere in Schengen. Cars can drive right over the border and flights are treated as domestic. So really, is it just two cities close to each other hosting it. Technically... it's two countries hosting it, but it's not a joint bid. If Jasna isn't involved in the bid process, it ain't a joint bid. If I went and wrote a book about joint bids and used your quotes in it, it isn't a co authored book. Same theory applies here. Although that metaphor might be stretching it.
  10. Isn't it interesting how (according to Wikipedia) Qatar will cost US$220 billion however Sochi costs just US$51 billion ​Rather interesting in comparison, one, the largest multidisciplinary sports competition in the world, is almost 4 times cheaper than a football competition. To be fair, Doha has to construct a lot of stadiums, but it relays puts how expensive this will be into perspective.
  11. Ehhh... Basing your identity off of a single place is a bit silly. I'd like to think there's more to you than English Patriotism and grammar errors but you seem to insist that all you are is just a sixteen year old Brit. How is it that every second post you post seems to have to affirm what you are. I don't care what you are, if we're being honest here. I'm here for the Olympics. Honestly, is it that hard to keep the discussion on topic and not have to have the last say in everything? Just don't bother replying to this, anyone. Back to that topic at hand, Qatar.
  12. Yoshi's right, Phillip's not a king, he married Liz after she was crowned. Hence, he's not a king at all. When Liz dies, it's onto Charles.
  13. It's not a matter of "us vs them" We are not different to you. Heck, I shouldn't be using the word "we" I am a human, you are a human, we have many differences, yet we are the same, and deserve the same basic rights as each other. Not because homosexual/bisexuals/transexuals should be treated the same as heterosexuals, but because we are all human. You didn't offend me, I have a thick skin. I just felt I should point out this flaw.
  14. Homosexuality is not a way of life. It is a sexual orientation. Let me put it this way, homosexuality is akin to liking licorice, some people do, most people don't. It's not a way of life. It's an innate difference. As a homsexual, I can confidently say, I do no have a different lifestyle because of it. You may not be Homophobic, but you don't seem to be the most knowledgeable either.
