Suggestion for the next WC

[Rama]

Hey there guys,

After watching Vancouver all week I noticed they played the national anthem of the Olympic champion. (Obvious duh!)
So I was thinkin', wouldn't it be awesome to have your national anthem being played when you are on the podium?

Yip.

Yes I think it would be nice. It'd require quite a few anthems to be gathered though...

 

[ianini]

That would be awesome, if I had a podium finish.

 

[Dene]

Not really. I don't know about everyone else, but I do NOT represent my country when I cube.

 

[shelley]

I suppose it beats the Disco Boys. Over and over and over.

 

[joey]

I like the Dutch National anthem.

+1

Though I wouldn't mind, particularly when it's for others, and I myself won't get on podiums anyway.

Just let the winner pick the song. Then it can be their anthem, or the disco boys.

 

[Tim Major]

No, a bad idea in my opinion. And when does discussion start about the location of next WC?

 

[Kirjava]

I think patriotism is irrational.

 

[endless_akatsuki]

I think patriotism is irrational.

Well, a bunch of people are at least somewhat proud of the country they live in...

 

[tim]

Oh, please not.
1.) I (like many others) don't give a **** about countries.
2.) I can imagine those narrow-minded patriots complaining about people making stupid things while their national anthem is being played.

I don't mind choosing a song though .

You get disco boys or national anthem. You decide

Cubing concerto with all sorts of different sounding cubes>National Anthem

I say the 2nd, & 3rd place finishers have to hum loudly when the 1st place winner is getting onto the podium (ofcourse, they don't have to be humming the same song.)

Dene, do you live in New Zealend or the US? I've been really confused about this.

No, he's Filipino.





He lives New Zealand

 

[kickinwing2112]

I think it sounds cool.

The correct answer is yes.

The correct answer is yes.

ROFL LOL


I do NOT want to represent my country.
I think the cubers here in Korea are all stupid. (No offence to the koreans on these forums. I meant the people who have NO interest in international cubing sites like these forums.)

So i would just like another song if at all.

My least favorite thing about the Olympics is how country centric it is. Some poor Japanese girl had to switch to Russian citizenship just so she can figure skate with a Russian. Why can't just any two people pair up and compete??

Also, I have dual citizenship, and it would take too long to play both anthems for every event when I sweep 2011.
