i don't know where to ask but this thread is at least about the host instead of other stuff. what's up with the extra long tail on the t in qatar in the official logos? does it make a slightly different sound to the qatari people or something?

i don't think literally anyone is gonna be happy with this world cup except maybe the members of the winning team who get that feather in their cap and have it shine enough to blot out everything else (and that's fair)

FullLeatherJacket posted:tbf every previous world cup the infrastructure was pretty much already in place and the commitments were just stuff like "we'll cover up the exposed rebar and prop up the collapsing bits at the Maracana" No no the guardian article says they’ve built the stadiums to be modular and will donate the pieces to needy communities elsewhere afterwards, totally happening

Eau de MacGowan posted:i dont know where else to post this but given we're six hours away from The Greatest World Cup, 6,500 Skulls and Counting, how are we doing MDTs/general discussion thread? Are we just doing one mega one? it should be a qatari world cup mdt: looks excellent, lots of custom images in the op, unique for each match, but 10 minutes before the start it's locked and no one can post in it ever. after the match the op is permabanned and their family is denied a ban benefit.

why does the world cup need eight new stadiums anyway there's 3? 4? matches per day, so even assuming you can only play one match a day (getting people in and out, groundskeeping) that's still 4 stadiums. or does it take a whole extra day off to reset a stadium?

njsykora posted:Is this gonna be like when F1 had a race in Saudi literally the day after there was a missile strike a few miles from the track? A couple nhl games just got cancelled because the arena in Nashville got flooded due to a city water main break. This stuff regularly happens everywhere. There’s enough to laugh at without being paranoid over fires. I don’t think there’s been much evidence of actual shoddy construction in the Qatari stadiums right? Like they’re fit for purpose, just horribly managed and built using slave labour.

I can’t imagine the Olympics going for an even larger mess after everything this has turned out to be. Qatar is just too small. Now a Gulf petro-states joint bid…
