i find that the medleys are kind of nerve wracking...since u wanna go ASAP when the person comes in but u dont wanna go too early and get disqualified...

even tho theyre usually shorter

Oh wow, Hi guys. Some of you may not know me, but that's ok. I haven't been on Videobleach since like March.. lol. Been busy doing other stuff. But anyways, I'll try to be as active as I can.

Also to note on the Olympics, I heard the opening ceremony is like one of the BEST in Olympic History Opening Ceremony! But I didn't watch it, =(. Oh well, I'll find a video on the internet about it.

Another note, China has a lot of medals and USA is so close to beating them, but USA has more gold medals, hehe.

[UrusaiBaka]

yea. china has more medals and USA has more GOLD medals

[ChaosBlade]

eh? Last time I checked China had 17 gold, while USA had 10 in this olympics.

[UrusaiBaka]

thats what i heard. i dont really pay attention

[koustik kill]

I was watching the 2 ring gymnastics and I noticed how much all the other nations besides china were getting royally screwed.  This Chinese guy did worse than the American and scored 2 pts better.  His legs weren't even straight when he was supposed to be straight, The Korean guy also got screwed, or i think he was Korean.

gymnastics have been poorly judged, but its because no one can beat Phelps in a pool.

[UrusaiBaka]

haha everyone hates the US cuz we pwn at swimming

[zombie_kitten]

yep Phelps and Coughlin are laying waste to most people they swim aginst...

Did anyone else see the Mens 800m freestyle Relay?

[ChaosBlade]

haha Phelps actually has half of all the US gold medals so far. China already has 22 gold 

Anyone watch olympic basketball? USA owned all games so far. Spain and Lithuania are also undefeated. I like USA, China, Argentina in bball.

Aww, that sucks!! Did you guys see the Olympics on the Guys' Gymnastics?! One of the competors in Team Japan by the name of Hiroyuki Tomita fell hard on the "Still Rings"(The one where there are 2 rings attached to a rope). Because believe it or not, these things require a lot of working out and it's really hard. He just fell because he lost his grip with his left hand, he could've nailed it though, but yeah it sucked because he fell hard to to the floor from a high altitude! >_<

[UrusaiBaka]

all those chinese girls that look young...my cousin tried to explain this...

theyre tech. 14, but in the screwed up chinese calander(where u have ur bday on a diff day every year, so on the american one u have no official bday)so they are chinese technically 15. and would turn 16 b4 the end of teh olympics or whatever the rule is?

that or the chinese cheat cuz they wanna win. stupid communists

[ChaosBlade]

woah don't get political 
They won't cheat because the IOC makes sure every athlete in olympics are legible to play. It has nothing to do with communism... just that calendar as you say. If anything, the blame would be on the judges because they rate their performance. Actually, wouldn't you say that older people would have more experience, thus having a better chance of winning? The Chinese are crazy. They really prepared very hard for this olympics, because its in their country.

It's really odd but interesting that China almost have 2x more gold than USA right now... 35 or something.

[zombie_kitten]

i think the chinese may win the medal race..

[koustik kill]

Okay this tiebreaker system is messed up.  Both the ppl with the same score should be getting gold.

I think they should go back to the perfect 10 scoring system again, worked a lot better.
