So close! They'll have to measure the distance from the center.

 

[criesofthepast]

I just started watching the Raonic tennis match which means Raonic is about to lose. I'm a jinx.

 

[Dark Schala]

Anyone else watching the US - NK football match?

Edit: *grumble grumble* stupid school internet connection. >:|

And excellent work for Canada today, with three bronzes. Awesome.

 

[killer_clank]

wait i thought olympic tennis had final set tiebreaks?

 

[navanman]

Got the measuring tape out for the Archery shoot-off

 

[elty]

I just notice the CTV olympic medal chart is now sorted by medal count instead of gold count. I remembered last time it was still sorted by Gold. Looks like we have been Americanized.

This Romanian girl on floor routine looks really young

 

[Meadows]

watching the beach vball

@tsnjamesduthie

Raonic/Tsonga 15-15 in the 3rd. Leave work. Speed home. Abandon your children. Watch this match. TSN.

Looks about 10

 

[Toge]

The quality of the gymnastics is outstanding, better than the Mens

 

[ag-my001]

The highest score possible? So difficulty only goes up to 6.5? I thought it was more open ended than that.

Edit: Yeah, I got this wrong.

 

[MIMIC]

Match point for Tsonga

EDIT: Raonic saves it with an ace

They're so close, even with the ruler they're having trouble deciding who wins...

...but France goes through!

 

[Brazil]

Upset at the Archery grounds! #5 Taipei girl is out.

 

[Meadows]

beach volleyball is intense. didn't know we were this good at it...

 

[fuenf]

@tsnjamesduthie

thanks

 

[Omzz]

These CTV commentators suck.

Talking about winning medals in the Twitter category by getting Justin Bieber to tweet back.

We are desperate

 

[Officerrob]

Hope U.S. women can stay in bounds on floor today

 

[ag-my001]

How many microns just won that Archery match?

 

[Creamium]

Some of these girls are really creeping me out. That Romanian chick on the ground exercise has the body of a 10 year old, but she has the face of a 60 year old.

That must have been really close; they re-measured each ring at least 3 times.

 

[criesofthepast]

Nice Raonic!

 

[Sianos]

Yes, much more gracefully. They look lighter on their feet.

All the vaults look so much lower after McKayla!

 

[Sealda]

Difficulty goes up to 16.500, then they get a technical score (up to 10) that acts as a multiplier (a score of "10" means the routine gets the full points for the difficulty).

Its not by multiplication.

Its by addition and the difficulty is different for every routine.

You can make it difficulty 10000 if you want. The execution is always 10 and then you deduct points depending on what mistakes the athlete makes.

@tsnjamesduthie

:lol

Might as well start up another stream with that on.

 

[Koodo]

The feed for the Women's Gymnastics on BBC has been much better than the Men's yesterday. They're giving a lot of screen time to the top athletes.

 

[Peru]

Is there really an archery event going on or are you watching it recorded? Can't find it on any streams.

Yeah, that was stupid. But props to our girls, they're making the most of this opportunity.

Russia messed up.

 

[dc89]

Dampney? Is beach volleyball on right now???

Yup.

GB V ITA!

19-18 to ITA at the moment.

And yes, Dampney is playing

 

[Pacbois]

Tsonga is so representative of what is wrong with French Tennis...

 

[pxleyes]

Ouch. Horrid landing.

 

[Wes]

Beach Volleyball with Brits playing is the best atmosphere at the Olympics.

 

[Kurtofan]

Tsonga vs Raonic in Tennis is tense!

 

[Officerrob]

Russian girl had a bad beam routine

Just finished for the day.

 

[MIMIC]

Girl just performed an almost flawless routine on the bar, then makes two huge errors in the end >_<

 

[dc89]

Italy take the first set.

Come on GB.

weightlifting seems good too

 

[indigo-cyclops]

How does Jordyn look? Flustered or confident?

lmao, she did her finishing flourish outside of the mat.

 

[Officerrob]

Steady as always

Qatar gets their first medal, bronze, from skeet.

Thanks, I misunderstood the system when I read up on it. I'll edit my post not to confuse anyone.

shocking news: China secured gold and silver in women's table tennis.

Yeah, she choked at the end.
