+kini_ont Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Well it has been 4 years since the XXI Winter Olympics (Vancouver, Canada) this year the athletes’ of the world meet to compete in Sochi, Russia at The XXII Winter Olympics. Not of Olympic material, not enough funds to make it to Sochi, well you’re not alone many of us are in the same boat or I should say bobsleigh. So to make it feel like an Olympic competition I will award a Gold coin to the winners of this cointest. You’ll not need any special equipment or cardinal knowledge of the sports, all you need is to select who will win the Gold, the Silver and the Bronze medals in Ice Hockey. I’ll even help by giving you the teams that will compete. Women’s Hockey: Canada, Finland, Switzerland, USA, Russia, Sweden, Germany, Japan Men’s Hockey: Russia, Austria, Czech Rep., Slovenia, Canada, Latvia, Slovakia, Finland, Switzerland, USA, Norway, Sweden RULES & Regulations: - Only 1 entry for the coinpetition! - Choose from the Ladies then the Men’s teams the winners of the Gold, Silver & Bronze Medals (please list them as such; Ladies – Gold XXX, Silver XXX Bronze XXX Men’s Gold XXX etc.) - For each correct medal placement you will be awarded an entry for the Gold Coin(GC) (1 GC for the Ladies, 1 GC for the Men & a possible 6 entries {3 in each} if you are correct on all medals) - Entries will be accepted till the end of February 7, 2014 (Ladies hockey begins Feb. 8) - The esteem & distinguished judges of me, myself & I will have the final say on all or any rule changes or disputes At the end of the games (Sunday Feb. 23/14) two winners will be randomly chosen. Good Luck! Link to comment
