Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021
10 days to go and there's 5 FISO entries in a list of 23. A bit early to try and work out what sort of tactics have been adopted by the entries so far.
Maybe one for a quiet afternoon at work.

You’ll have a room to yourself soon enough then. Just stay elsewhere for the first night and come back and see if there’s anything of the room left…

Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021
According to
https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/olympic ... -07-21.htm
Just noticed that some events are running on 21st July - Baseball/Softball and Football - before the opening ceremony! How does that affect this competition's deadline?

Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021
As in previous Olympics, there are some events where the preliminary matches start before the opening ceremony. However, since there are 339 sets of medals up for grabs, I doubt this will really have a major impact in the overall medal count for any country.morganb wrote: ↑17 Jul 2021, 14:57According to

Gone past 50 entries. 16 FISO entries. Should hit 100+ entries in total (I'm guessing).

Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021
It seems that from the latest set of stories, that the entries picked with a pin will probably do better than any scientific approach.
5 days to go.

Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021
I take it we have to be in before the pre-opening ceremony team sport preliminaries kick off?

Larger than 1200 or was it lower before?Shaggy365 wrote: ↑09 Jun 2021, 22:24 Also I've tweaked some of the values and given a larger budget so it's not impossible to pick a decent entry. Hopefully I haven't lost the knack of setting a hard target, rather than an impossible or ridiculously easy target.
Let's just say I managed to pick an entry of 6 countries I could point to on a map (or hit with a dart, as that's how I did my entry).

Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021

Re: Fantasy Olympics 2021
You just have to be born on Planet Earth to set a world record, regardless of location… just as you can set a British record while competing in Japan
