I'm living in Africa ringel. Also I saw on the news about the badminton. Tsk Tsk. Yeah, I heard about that on the radio then read a couple articles about the fallout. Four teams kicked out as a result. Weird domino effect regarding how it happened, too: #2 Chinese team lost unexpectedly -> #1 Chinese team didn't want to potentially face them in semifinals, so they tried to lose; problem was, their opponents felt the same way -> After that match gets resolved (with #1 Chinese team proving to be better at losing), the winner of the next match would get the #1 Chinese team in the quarterfinals, so those two teams now both try to lose. Egads.

I was at home to watch the opening ceromy, it was quality, it's the first time I've seen something that said 'British' tbh. It's normally divided.
