is the Romanian suit malfunctioning? i see korea getting points but the floors not lighting up.

that leaping attack in slow mo looked so cool too bad it was pointless
 
Wish i had saved the quotes from the Brits here, who complained that there were too many medals handed out for a single discipline (in swimming) ;) Anyway congrats GB.

Well, it's still true. But also shows why on an individual level medal count is a little misleading, when people say 'greatest Olympian' and stuff. I mean you have to play for days in some events to get one, and if you miss out it's a four year wait for your next chance. A swimmer can theoretically pick up a handful in an afternoon.

Can someone link me to the live streams, lost the link when my comp kept crashing. Tired of NBC keeps showing swimming, lol.
 
Does anyone know why they do dual language announcements at the medal ceremonies?
There's usually three languages for the announcements / celebrations :
- French (official language of the Olympics)
- English
- Whatever the language is of the hosting country

Since London is hosting this year, we have only two languages.
Correct me if i'm wrong !

Edit : way beaten.
