zekekelso Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Good point. An Olympics that isn't going to happen is going to learn from one that hasn't happened. Wonder whose paying for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amorincognito Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Is there some way that your articles could stop referring to "Oslo Norway" "Almaty Kazakhstan" and "Beijing China"? We all know where they are.... well maybe except for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekekelso Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I think the IOC needs a new rule: If you have to say what country a city is in, it doesn't get to host. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p85 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Wonder whose paying for that. Nei til Oslo OL-2022 would be delighted to see the bill I think the IOC needs a new rule: If you have to say what country a city is in, it doesn't get to host. Nagano, SLC... Never heard of them...

FYI Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 The Winter Olympics have often times gone to obsure named places anyway. Who's also ever heard of Sochi, Lillehammer & Sapporro before they hosted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faster Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 I am sure lots of people heard of Sapporo before '72.

JMarkSnow2012 Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 How can you learn from an Olympics that hasn't even happened yet? Even at this stage, the Koreans will have a fair amount of advice to offer about what happens when you try to turn a 21st century bid into reality.

StefanMUC Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 And yet you're the one with the post limit, not him. Well, I wouldn't mind if it were both. Or a limit on "repeat" posts with a system that detects that the same person has posted the same thing (threshold maybe 95% identical words used) before...
