Medal table:
Germany 3-0-1
Netherlands 2-2-1
Norway 1-4-3
United States 1-1-0
Austria 1-0-0
France 1-0-0
South Korea 1-0-0
Sweden 1-0-0
Canada 0-3-1
Czechia 0-1-1
Finland 0-0-1
Italy 0-0-1
Kazakhstan 0-0-1
NOTRussia 0-0-1

Nice to see a few less important nations like the United States get some medals x (though to be fair, we can talk)

I don't think there's a sport here aside from maybe curling that doesn't give me anxiety watching it. It does make it more fun.

And my god at the Norwegian gold - Kruger fell at the start of the cross-country race and was almost half a minute behind before catching up and winning the gold, with a medal sweep behind him. Everyone sure the Norwegians aren't slightly superhuman at this?

A great effort from Andrew Musgrove to finish seventh in the cross-country race but BBC why keep repeating the race three times during its coverage?

Absolute joke what happened with the women's slopestyle taking place today with the winds clearly affecting people's jumps. Everyone in the final fall at least once during their run.

Apparently, Olympic luge champ David Gleirscher very nearly wasn't selected by Austria in the first place!

Yeah that did seem quite unfair. Reminds me a bit of the Slalom in Sochi where 13 of the 30 best riders didn't finish.

I like doing this so I'm going to continue, I didn't watch much today but I did finally get to see some figure skating and well, Kaori Sakamoto looked incredible - can't believe she placed last, but then Mirai Nagasu was also pretty incredible.

Medal table:
Germany 4-1-2
Netherlands 3-2-2
Norway 2-4-3
Canada 2-4-1
United States 2-1-1
France 2-0-1
Sweden 1-1-0
Austria 1-0-0
South Korea 1-0-0
Japan 0-1-2
Czechia 0-1-1
Assorted Athletes From Areas Including Ingria, Muscovy, the Volga basin, Siberia, Kamchatka and Outer Manchuria 0-1-1
Australia 0-1-0
Slovakia 0-1-0
Finland 0-0-2
Italy 0-0-1
Kazakhstan 0-0-1

Good day for Canada but the Germans are still leading well.

Really disappointing for Christie, she was really in with a chance there. An interesting choice of disqualification there as well, I could see reasons for both Boutin and Van Kerkhoff being penalised but not Choi.

Absolutely awful to see Christie again for the 4th time in a row, the three disqualifications in Sochi and now the fall. One thing she doesn't deserve is the amount of negative comments on social media.

From the thrills of watching Shaun White to a horrific crash for 16 year old Japanese snowboarder Yuto Totsuka hope he is alright.

All the medalling jumps in the halfpipe were phenomenal, such a shame about Totsuka's crash. Hope he's okay.

The Italian pair ending their performance with a bit of We No Speak Americano. I wholeheartedly approve.

I haven't managed to catch anything over the last couple of days (will definitely fix this at the weekend) and I suspect our nation still failing to get on the podium has contributed to the silence in this thread lately. However I shall update the medal table:

Medal table:
Germany 9-2-4
Norway 6-7-4
Netherlands 5-5-2
United States 5-1-2
Canada 4-5-4
Sweden 3-2-0
France 3-1-2
Austria 2-1-3
Italy 1-1-3
South Korea 1-0-1
Japan 0-4-3
Italy 0-2-1
China 0-2-0
Slovakia 0-2-0
Former Tributary State Of The Golden Horde 0-1-4
Czechia 0-1-1
Switzerland 0-1-1
Slovenia 0-1-0
Finland 0-0-3
Spain 0-0-1
Kazakhstan 0-0-1

I didn't call the Germans to actually be winning this far into it, I don't know enough about what's upcoming to know if the Norwegians are likely to take over but it looks to be a good race between them now.

Hope Dom Parsons can scrape a medal in the skeleton tomorrow morning. He's definitely in with a chance.
