And make sure the PLAY button is pressed before the game starts. The thing that amazes me is for a popular sports like badminton, there isn't a way to review video playback to battle controversial calls. I would think some simple rules would be enough such as each player is allowed to have up to 3 requests for video playback for each game. When will we see innovations in badminton other than trying out 21-points scoring.
the same though was on my mind too. 3 request is fair enough . In this way linesman will be extra carefull. (i remeber seeing a linesman falling asleep, can't remember which series it was but it's terrible to see a linesman nodding off ZZzzzzzzzzz)
I find it amazing how some of you guys and gals can type so fast...each time I see a score on tv/livescore , by time I move to the forum, there area already loads of posting abt the score made.. I am really amaze.
hahhaahaa ... me too me toooooooo feel the sameeeeeee................ only can post in here, if post in there, will be flooded until duno which page liao... hahahaa...
huu luckily my one and the only thread still haven't been closed yet altot after i post , many ppl keep saying tat it will be closed.. until i 'talk' also must talk careful... hehehe got ppl know me here also, so it's better dun talk wrong thing, if not police in malaysia sure can come find me and jail me for few days... hahahaha...
because it's been edited.......according to a chinese thread, from one of the linesman, he said those official promise tat those video come out will be 'censored'... those controversial or wrong judge one won't show in replay.. hehe..
OK Alfa - please look at the thread title. Now look at the preceding 8 posts. Would it be fair to delete those posts because they are off topic? Would it be fair to close the thread because these posts are discussing about a topic that is already in another thread? Of course, we are diverging off topic here - so I am very tempted to close this thread.
It's good to give such warning before closing any thread as ppl often go off topic. warning is good..........in some way.
haii..alfa..its good to see u in this way..fun and made jokes. dont be too stressed by all the posts.when u are not happy with something and starting to write ur opinions,sometimes u scared me..i mean to post something that againts u.. so,this thread will discussed the title rite ? just move on..im an outsider
to the original question. the answer is no. from the announcement, there are umpires from different countries.
off topic... Kwun... do you see match CTF/LWW againts LP/JR... what happened in 2nd set?..someone injured?..
ermm i think should be 'off' topic too.. when i realize in final of china open, the main umpire is from china, i was wondering.... why he is not from neutral country?... izzit already a trend in badminton sport? can someone tell me, if in malaysia open, izzit the main umpire can be from malaysia, if french open, the main umpire can be from french... how about thomas cup... if malaysia vs indonesia, the umpire can be from malaysia? does this happen all the time in badminton? cos for wat i know... in other sports, mostly those umpire must be from neutral country... correct me if i'm wrong.. and actually i didn't notice about the umpire's nationality all the while... so for bwf... if they can't intro the use of video technology to judge... at least.... they can set the rules that the umpire must be from neutral country..
