2008 Summer Olympics

At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing Khalmizam finished his ranking round with a total of 674 points, five points behind leader Juan René Serrano. This gave him the fifth seed for the final competition bracket in which he faced Alexandru Bodnar in the first round. The Romanian surprised Khalmizam with a 106 score while he only came to a total of 105 points and he was eliminated. Bodnar would lose in the following round against Juan Carlos Stevens.[1]

Together with Cheng Chu Sian and Muhammad Marbawi he also took part in the team event. With the 674 score from the ranking round combined with the 660 of Cheng and the 659 of Marbawi Malaysia were in third position after the ranking round, which gave them a straight seed into the quarter finals. With 218-213 they were however eliminated by the Italian team that eventually won the silver medal.[1]

gollark: Also, I seem to have unfathomably lost a program I need, this is HIGHLY troubling.
gollark: I think that if your system can't be deployed without being used everywhere at once, it's utter bees and should not occur.
gollark: Living standards have still consistently increased for pretty much everyone for ages, governments are the ones going to war and covertly operating and you can't really get around this given the existence of scarcity, worldwide extreme poverty is declining and literacy is increasing, etc.
gollark: And yet it somewhat works ish, apparently better than many of the things called "communism" over the æges.
gollark: Such forms of communism seem impräctical.
