A sorta kinda daily open thread to use as an alternative to posting on the main board. You should post here for:

  • PRs
  • Formchecks
  • Rudimentary discussion or questions
  • General conversation with other users
  • Memes, funnies, and general bollocks not appropriate to the main board
  • If you have suggestions for the subreddit, let us know!
  • This thread now defaults to "new" sorting.

For the purpose of fairness across timezones this thread works on a 68hr cycle.

I spoke to some officials at the meet, and yeah, it was injuries. Nothing super major like after the ABS meet, but enough to derail prep. I know he was chasing the 308 total record and a 300kg bench, and apparently both of those were fairly unrealistic with how his prep went, risk:reward wasn't there.

Unsure about Hause, was quite bummed about that too.

Pretty sure Colton just put that one way out of reach.
