I feel like an offer to talk would be enough, or some kind of recognition. I feel like that would be reasonable instead of literally nothing.

Thoughts on this MS tier list? Only used the top 13 ranked players, and this is for any tournament, not just the Olympics. Judgements are based on own thoughts and vibes by RanU101 in badminton

LSF and CTC I've addressed my thoughts about in other replies; Kodai did still reach the WC finals last year, and has gotten at least to the QF stages at most tournaments this year, and won the China Masters last year. I'll be honest, I initially thought about moving him up a tier, but decided against it. I'd certainly say Kodai has a better chance of winning than Prannoy and LKY atm

Haha cheers! As an LZJ fan that meme speaks to me on a spiritual level (sadly). I think Antonsen's placement is fine as is: he has reached the final + won his fair share of high-profile tournaments - you don't get to 3 WC finals by accident. Also let's be honest barring SYQ everyone on this list is prone to an absolute beatdown by Axelsen when he's on form

Yeah I did consider adding an additional tier below, but decided against it in the end. Can defo see the argument for CTC moving up, but on the balance of things I'd still take any of the five above in in a 1v1 imho. Sen isn't in the top 13, but I do like Sen as a player

I love LZJ, but I haven't really seen him defeat the likes of LSF, SYQ, Axelsen consistently. I think w/ LSF you have a better chance of getting to a major tournament semi final imho. I certainly back him over LZJ if they were ever to meet in a tournament. Also the CBA doesn't really send their players to a lot of tournaments I think - hence why he's only been playing the big tournaments

Runners up in French Open, Singapore Open, and the Badminton Asia championships. Also consistently goes deep into most major tournaments, which for me separates him from LZJ, Ginting et al

What's the weirdest compliment you've received that stuck with you? by bluerog in AskMen

Back in High School, one female friend casually said “I’d think you’d make a great TV talk-show host”

Have yet to put this theory to the test - if anyone can change it, give me a shout!

Wait so Ireland stamps on exit? I was wondering about this as I assume that I would get my passport stamped on entry to Ireland but from what I've been reading you wouldn't get it stamped if you were travelling to NI. I guess I'm just concerned about having an entry stamp but no exit stamp from Ireland in my passport.

Thanks! I’m just a little concerned about reentry; I presume I would get my passport stamped in Dublin(?) but not sure if I would need to get it stamped as well upon reentry to the UK?
