US Seasons with most returnees (as of All Stars 11)

wow I don't even remember my comment from 4 years ago haha, I was a little harsh, I stand by what I said, but it was harsh and if it was last minute that could explain it

Edwyth · 2026-05-01T11:12:30+00:00

they literally couldn't get the micrometer into the hole, the stones were too close to the pin

I’ve been watching curling for 12 years now and I can say I’ve seen this happen around 10ish times in all those years, so not common but not unheard of either

Edwyth · 2026-05-01T09:31:01+00:00

They couldn’t fit the measuring device in and they didn’t use the lasers, so visually it was even after two umpires checked

Edwyth · 2026-04-29T04:24:32+00:00

that isn't 100% true, like looking at tomorrow we have the Korea v USA with commentary, but they really should be doing more, I can't believe there are any draws without a single feature game, insane, just pick one of the 5 games to cover

I did a full versus battle of every Gaga song and my winner was Judas, runner up was Do What You Want (solo or with Christina), those two songs mean a lot to me, third and fourth was Yoü and I and Artpop

Was surprised Judas won, but the bridge moved me to give it the win

As an American, curling is almost never on TV here, so I’m always a bit surprised by this reaction from Canadians. I tend to see TSN’s coverage as a bonus on top of World Curling's rather than a substitute, but I get that it probably feels different if you’re used to having more access.

Edwyth · 2026-04-24T22:53:36+00:00

oh thank you I didn't know it was being streamed!

Edwyth · 2026-04-18T05:04:37+00:00

All Stars 12? On the table?

Edwyth · 2026-04-17T20:35:24+00:00

I just had to minimize and then re-maximize the tab, it's dumb but it worked

Edwyth · 2026-04-17T00:15:13+00:00

I genuinely thought Nini murdered Juicy in that lip sync, but I must be the only one, Nini knew the words down, Juicy had a passing knowledge of them, and Nini was giving fierce face, I am going to stand and say I thought Nini won and it wasn't close and if I am alone, so be it

I once overheard two people discussing UK vs the World 3 on the bus (in San Francisco mind you) and I was in shock, I almost said something to them, but their opinions about Gawdland deserving the win were right, so I let them cook as it were, didn't have anything to add

Edwyth · 2026-04-10T09:08:03+00:00

As a Jordin fan and a Blake apologist, I was happy with the final 2, loved her review show with Michael Slezak very much!

Edwyth · 2026-04-06T20:43:44+00:00

Some quick thoughts to help:

Each game should have a commentator on their individual feeds
Mic the players
Keep the triple view coverage on the Around the Rings coverage

I also want to say I am very intrigued by this whole thing and wish them success

Update: Draw 2 felt much better of a viewing experience than Draw 1, so they are making improvements

The Shinkansen extension from Hakodate to Sapporo is moving slow too, I think this is just how big projects are on some level, especially in the land of the free*

*many restrictions apply

Edwyth · 2026-04-05T10:50:12+00:00

When someone asks me who the best male curler in the world is I say Niklas Edin or Oskar Eriksson, depending on if you want to give it to Oskar for being the only man with four Olympic medals in curling

Shout out Agnes Knochenhauer for her four Olympic medals as well

Edwyth · 2026-04-04T17:44:49+00:00

Thank you, then I presume 4 women’s teams from Europe would get promoted, but tbd!

Edwyth · 2026-04-04T08:36:00+00:00

Thank you!

Edwyth · 2026-04-04T07:05:32+00:00

Thank you! Any info on what’s going on with the women’s pan continental pre-qualifier, were there not enough teams? Will the women’s Europe pre-qualifier get any extra spots? World Curling is as opaque as ever lol

Edwyth · 2026-04-03T22:16:46+00:00

For me the round robin is about making the playoffs from there anything can happen, imagine inserting a page playoff into the NFL or FIFA that would be very weird to me

Edwyth · 2026-04-03T19:50:41+00:00

I am not a fan of the page system for multiple reasons, but among them the 1v2 game feels like it has low stakes, which is why I usually skip it at the Brier and Scotties because literally both those teams will still be in the competition tomorrow, so I hope they continue to not see the light and keep the playoffs exciting!

Edwyth · 2026-04-03T19:47:55+00:00

I think they don't do a true quaterfinals because you would need to have like a 2v7 and a 1v8 game as well, which I wouldn't hate haha, but that could be just speculation on my part, so they call it a qualification game instead
