micheal_warren Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 tvnz.co.nz/olympics has been updated for the games time look. A lot of information on the new zealand team heading to the games... quite impressive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micheal_warren Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Does anyone have any idea when the schedule will be update on the Beijing website... It is only 11 days to go and the website is bloody terrible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian2004 Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Does anyone have any idea when the schedule will be update on the Beijing website... It is only 11 days to go and the website is bloody terrible! Frankly, I don't expect a detailed schedule at all. Now that there's so little time left until the Games' start, I don't think that they still realise their mistake. Maybe we can already call ourselves lucky if they have at least a decent result service during the Games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daallo Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Damn! 10 days to go and nothing! That sucks! BTW, I have made a schedule with all of the finals (but GMT -6) and also include some more where Mexicans compete, it's in Spanish, if someone's interested, it's in my blog, where I will be posting "live" the action of the Mexicans: http://embajadoresaztecas.org/daallo/?page_id=51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it's a right choice, at least Chinese would present a good Olympics since they're working so hard for it. They are not perfect, already they sacrificed the most.

IceNarcissus Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 I was looking at the live results page of the official Beijing site for a shooting competition, and I think it's VERY funny how even something as big as the Olympics can only get a website with mostly decent translations by non-native speakers. The one that sticks out in my mind most is the symbol guide for successful shots. Goes something like this: [ ] - The shot is missed. [x] - The other case.
