Y'all should have joined me and kevtron last night in tinychat watching it. It was grand.

I'm working tonight so I'll probably watch in the morning after work. Might wake up at 11 and just watch the finals. I do want to see the qualies into the finals though.

Hopefully that announcer gets kidnapped before it starts.

Is qualifiers on TV or a live stream?? Or just finals? Don't think I have seen any other sport qualifiers on regular NBC yet.

Kevtron was saying he just deleted his history every 30 min and kept watching. If you don't have a code, that might be a decent option. I feel like it might just be on the stream not actual NBC on TV till the finals

I don’t know if this helps, but I just downloaded an extension in Chrome called HOLA (it’s a free VPN), then I went to this link http://olimpicos.marcaclaro.com/live/#cs=1 and finally I selected to navigate in Mexico thanks to the VPN and I’m watching the Olympics live for free.

Aside from the obvious picks, I think Wacko might be a contender for that gold medal.

Vouching for this, it's in Spanish but whatever. Looks like the stream comes on at 5 minutes to the hour. ABM outta nowhere!!

People were shitting on the course, but people are using it. Stoked to see the pole jam front of the rail getting uses by alex hall.

Hoping somebody does something with the soccer goal.

The inconsistency in judging right now is just fucking disgraceful. Jonas Hunziker’s run was busted as fuck

on the stream online from NBC in the states. If you don't have NBC only a 30 min free, but clear your history and you can't keep viewing.





Dude, props to the skiers for getting it on the creative lines. Seeing some solid runs. I wonder what happened with the boarders. If it was just the weather, or going so early in the games but glad these guys are hitting some lines. Still some lines I'm really hoping to see.

Fuck yeah!

Teal! So good.

And yea not liking judging here. Bellemare had such a clean run and got 64? Meanwhile 80whatever for a run with a ton of errors?
