COME ON SERENA!

Personally I don't care about either Shara or Serena but it's better if Russia lose every gold medal chance possible if GB are going to make 3rd.

Serena taking the piss though, keeping Shara waiting.

Anyone know what time Ennis needs in the 800m?

 

[mclem]

Is there a website that shows the a timeline of the day? Bbc (fuck off autocorrect NBC) sport website is good for individual sport, but I'd like a simple layout by time of everything, so I can more easily see clashes etc

It's slightly misleading. The days at the top are buttons, not meant to be used for cross-referencing. The times just below should be used to cross-reference times for the selected day.

(Fencing)

Oh no, more referee drama involving the Koreans?

 

[masud]

Well they don't have Navarro, Rubio or Rodriguez but still...

 

[fuenf]

Korea is in the Epee finals, at least a silver for Shin!

 

[Ark]

This is going to be a quick game of Tennis.

 

[Good Job Bob]

That was a quick point for Serena.

Medals are serious business eh

 

[Gomu Gomu]

Like this?

Amazing. The London 2012 website is great. Everything from database design to user interface and data representation is top notch.

 

[modulaire]

It's windy. Sharapova hates wind.

This will be over even quicker than I expected.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Not looking great so far for Sharapova

 

[masud]

Damn broke her serve like it was nothing...

 

[Korey]

Back on the subject of the British cyclist who deliberately crashed for a restart:

Video of the crash

Video of Hindes giving an interview backtracking about his previous comment <--- His English is very good. Which means:

"We were saying if we have a bad start we need to crash to get a restart. I just crashed, I did it on purpose to get a restart, just to have the fastest ride. I did it. So it was all planned, really."

...was not lost in translation.

 

[Kitschkraft]

Serena....

We are about to get another gold here in about an hour....

 

[thefro]

yeah, Sharapova is toast... she has to be on her game to beat Serena.

 

[Nolan.]

Ah Bloody hell there was me thinking Sharapova was going to put up some good resistance

 

[PaulLFC]

Great to see Jess doing well at the Javelin and having a good lead going into the 800m, KJT is 14th now and according to BBC is on course to set a new junior record, good news for both of them

 

[Wes]

 

[Gomu Gomu]

male USA Basketball match is about to begin.

 

[Meadows]

Medals are serious business eh

coming 3rd is serious business. It would be unreal for GB to come 3rd in a home olympics. Un. Real.

We know we can't get 1st or 2nd. China and the USA are superpowers, but if we snuck into 3rd place, that would be fucking unreal. An overall bronze at the olympics would be just incredible.

 

[Dennis]

Great pic. Love her face.

Fuck me, there's yet more swimming tonight.

 

[Hypnotoad]

Ah, too bad USA vs. China face off will not happen in Womens fencing, its Korea vs. China instead, with Russia and USA fighting for the Bronze.

 

[danwarb]

Medals are serious business eh

It's the taking part that counts. Everyone should get a medal for attendance champion.

 

[masud]

male USA Basketball match is about to begin.

Should actually be a fairly close game. Lithuania always shoots lights out against us.

 

[Kurtofan]

Wow Mexicans booing the Senegal anthem, no respect.

Go Senegal!

 

[Wes]

Fuck me, there's yet more swimming tonight.

Tonight is all about Jessica. That Stadium is going to be erupting for two whole minutes.

 

[Nolan.]

Yeay more of a match now!...kinda


Edit: ah nevermind

No, because it gives me no context of what events are in each sport, so eg I might not care if a qualy round clashes with a medal match. The list view is more what I'd like, but sorted by time (it's currently sorted by sport)


Edit: hold on, you can click the bars and they'll expand like a gantt chart with individual events broken down. Very nice

then Rio will be about KJT

 

[Regulus Tera]

¡México! ¡México! ¡México! ¡México!

 

[Nekki]

Russia wins in basketball, spain down!

Try clicking on any bar.

Huh? Click the timeline for a selected sport and it drops down the event, you can hover over and see exactly then what stage that event is.

If you click the little + buttons next to the sports it expands to show a schedule for each event in that sport, and hovering over a box tells you the time and round type.

 

[Meadows]

yo GB fans. What should we be watching? Looks like Serena has this in the bag

 

[Keyser Soze]

I am all Tennised out after Wimbledon. Cannot get excited watching this.

 

[Kitschkraft]

Wow Mexicans booing the Senegal anthem, no respect.

Go Senegal!

Why would they even do this? What history these these countries have?

 

[Majine]

Sweden - Argentina in handball (m) now.

 

[Mecha_Infantry]

Gymnastics is going good

 

[W1SSY]

Serena is in beast mode today.

 

[Ark]

Back on the subject of the British cyclist who deliberately crashed for a restart:

Why on Earth you would ever admit to deliberately crashing is way beyond me. Seriously.

 

[Zaph]

Serena is in beast mode today.

I want her to destroy Sharapova just because of those annoying grunts. USA!

Why on Earth you would ever admit to deliberately crashing is way beyond me. Seriously.

Don't quote or even acknowledge Korey. He has no actual interest in the Olympics other than to bait people with old news.

 

[Regulus Tera]

This is gonna be a long ninety minutes.

 

[Ark]

Beast is in Serena mode today.

FTFY.

 

[Nolan.]

Sharapova and the double faults her greatest nemesis

 

[Regulus Tera]

OMG MARCO FABIAN D:

FUCKING CROSSBAR

 

[KidA Seven]

Holy shit so close.

 

[Kurtofan]

Why would they even do this? What history these these countries have?

None I think, perhaps just bad football behaviour.

 

[mclem]

Anyone know what time Ennis needs in the 800m?

Well, it rather depends on how the others do. 2:05 will give her 7000 points, which is at least a static (and awesome!) goal.

Using the predicted performances from that earlier website for everyone else, and a bit of napkin maths, would suggest that if everyone else equals their best recent performance, Ennis would need about 2:34 or better to win.

Amazing. The London 2012 website is great. Everything from database design to user interface and data representation is top notch.

Maybe not the ticketing section... even if it has been good for me.
