UPDATE: Torch / cauldron ablaze in AMAZING lighting ceremony (must see tv tonight). Games underway!
Hints are coming out that the opening ceremony parade will not be in alphabetical order as it has been in the past, but rather in ’stroke count’ order based on the Chinese characters. For example, Australia has 15 strokes to the Chinese character for Australia, and as such, they will be entering toward the end, position 203. Greece will still be first and the host country China will be last, but in between we could see quite a mishmash for people hoping to turn in during the middle or end and find the countries they were hoping for.
For Americans this means you are going to have to tune in about halfway through the opening ceremony parade to catch the US entry. The US will be entering in position 140, right after Syria and right before the Virgin Islands.
So, you really want the whole list? Ok…this will be long…

Thanks for putting on the whole list – much appreciated – wanted to check where Team South Africa were (131!!) and nobody else could tell me!
Isn’t it great that our flagbearer, Natalie du Toit is a crossover from the Paralympics, and no, she does not swim with a prosthesis, as the commentator said, only walks with it. We could have had two, but Oscar Pistorius (the ‘Blade Runner’) just missed qualifying. Maybe next time!

I’m hoping it is pretty accurate. I’m not very good at counting the different strokes in Chinese characters, but I think it’s on target.
