dave199 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Wouldn't it be funny if Annecy did what Pyeongchang did back in 2003. Come in with that was considered the weakest bid and shock Salzburg to the post? I'd be in complete utter shock if Pyeongchang is dropped first.
memorabilia Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 When i reading the beginning of this thread, I am happy to not be there today
baron-pierreIV Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 I wonder if new Princess Charlene has her favorite and will influence new chubby-hubby? I'd be in complete utter shock if Pyeongchang is dropped first. Far-fetched. The 3 Bid Indeces (GB, ATR and mine ) are in total alignment over who's going first!!
cormiermax Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Posted July 6, 2011 Can some one get me a link to the live stream if its up yet? Nvm found it.
Sir Rols Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 The thing that is hampering Annecy the most this time around is timing & geopolitcs. Not to mention the big ups & downs in their campaign throughout the process. If it wasn't for these things, Annecy would be a very formidable bid. I think if they lose & decide to bid for 2022, their bid could be one of the favorites in that race. To be fair, after their horrible stop-start to the campaign, I do think they shifted up a gear and were campaigning strongly the past few months. The trouble is, too little, too late.
Sir Rols Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Frickin' slow net connection at work - timed out already! I'm gonna have to wait till I get home to watch it streaming properly.
cormiermax Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Posted July 6, 2011 Your not missing anything, it's just a single video on a loop right now.
Sir Rols Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 And bummer - it'll be the Munich presentation that's on just when I'm commuting home. I'm sure I'll get the lowdown from here though!
cormiermax Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Posted July 6, 2011 God this is annoying! Munich presentation starts in 30 minutes correct?
hiroamorim Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 looking the schedule Rogge will start his remarks at 8:30 So more 15 minutes left...
stir.ts Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Hi G-Bidders I hope PC will have a fantastic presentation and take it home finally, but good luck to all the fans and bids.
Athensfan Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 My feed keeps cutting in and out. Is anybody televising this in the U.S.?
dave199 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 My feed keeps cutting in and out. Is anybody televising this in the U.S.? I doubt it. It's probably your internet connection. I'm having no problems.
cormiermax Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Posted July 6, 2011 Is everyone still getting the same video?
mattperiolat Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Well, clearly, the problem isn't Annecy then, it's me. I just already have a preconception because of Albertville and the bad start that Annecy is just bad and must be avoided. I am wiling to accept I may be wrong, but I still have my reasons not to favor the bid. One question: travel time between clusters for PC and Munich is within an hour either way. What about travel time between Chamonix and Annecy, if anyone knows? Oh and I am on the feed myself. Just the fluff piece playing now.
Sir Rols Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Is everyone still getting the same video? I'm not even getting the looped video - just a continuing notice that my player is buffering.
dave199 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 This video keeps replaying. It's quite annoying now
mattperiolat Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Patience, gentle Olympians, they appear to be running late. It'll be fine.
baron-pierreIV Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 They're all equal from my standpoint. And as far as being deserving, well, everyone deserved everything; just ask everyone. Well, u have to start cutting down the list. Only 1 will emerge -- so one has to use whichever yardsticks, however subjective, are applicable to start the winnowing process.
