Like that?  |
| Posted by: Sarzonia Feb 14 2005, 09:02 AM |
| Due to the disaster at the last event and due to the less than impressive conclusion to the AO Winter Olympics, Sarzonia will not be participating in the AOlympics. |

| Milchama will participate in the following team events Baseball U21 team Soccer Men's and Women's Men U21 team Women national team Softball national team Indiviual events: Fencing (you know there are 3 divisions in fencing I don't what they are called though) Men Kelvin Frum, Women Kerry Martinson Tennis Mattiyahu Golgan, Women Leah Malkan Track and Field 100M Men Darian Flinters (yes the soccer player) Women Malkah Melecha Triathlon: Our only triathlete Steve Dago |
| Posted by: Spruitland Sep 5 2005, 11:49 PM |
Spruitland will send a team of athletes to compete in the Gravedigging and Bumping events. Though we probably don't stand much of a chance if the Milchamians compete.  |

Unless someone forgot to tell me something, we haven't had an AOlympics for quite some time. |
| Posted by: Starblaydia Sep 6 2005, 04:50 AM | ||||
I think that tells us all we need to know about this thread. |
| Posted by: Khazaron Sep 12 2005, 10:08 AM |
| Just out of curiosity, are there any plans on maybe having one somewhere down the line, or is this pretty much a dead idea? I know you said the thread was dead Star, just wanted to know about the idea of having another at some point. Seems like something I might be interested in participating in. |
| Posted by: Krytenia Sep 21 2005, 05:50 PM | ||
The first AOlympics went a little bit t**s-up (my fault), and we haven't touched it since. |
| Posted by: Starblaydia Sep 21 2005, 06:16 PM |
| Olympics have traditionally been an enormous undertaking, as you're co-ordinating so many nations, athletes, events and such that I've never, ever seen an Olympics in any form finish once it's even vaguely begun. Better to chop it up into much smaller competitions and tournaments that you can create, run and scorinate easily. Say... put the track events into a tour and distribute the scorinator around anyone who wants to host part of the tour - kinda like an AO Golden League or something. |
| Posted by: Sarzonia Sep 22 2005, 12:22 PM |
| The only way an Olympics-styled event could even conceivably work is if a committee of nations put them on with one person in charge of scorinating a limited number of events. Let's say I'd do lacrosse, basketball, and American football, Star could do real football, baseball, and field hockey, Bedistan could do track and field, Vil could do swimming and diving, etc. We could set the tournament up in one specific country for RP purposes, but it would take several people to do the actual scorinating. That's my opinion, your mileage (or kilometreage?  ) may vary. |
| Posted by: Starblaydia Sep 22 2005, 12:35 PM |
| Thats a useful idea, Sarz. Very 'spirit of co-operation' there. I think i've got KP's olympic spreadsheet somewhere that did all the running events and i think i've got a volleyball sheet somewhere too. We could send that sheet to anyone who wanted to host a track event, say, and then they produce the scores. Say, for instance, the Golden League-style events go to Jhanna, Alikka-Corra, Woodstock and <insert national capitals here>. I still think that an 'olympic games' itself is a little... overriding. I dunno, perhaps more effort that its worth. Of course, taking the 'Olympic' stigma away from it would be fine by me, Ahh, a good laugh.. |

| Posted by: Starblaydia Sep 23 2005, 11:13 AM |
Well yes, but as no-one else seems to you're not alone in that little bit of visual laziness  |
| Posted by: Krytenia Sep 23 2005, 01:55 PM | ||
<Inserting Everton City here.> I think we should go ahead with the Golden League thing. |
| Posted by: Starblaydia Sep 23 2005, 06:49 PM | ||||
A 100m test:
That, for instance, is what one would get, with varying degrees of times available. You can edit the %ages of the best and worst finishing times in each race relative to the Olympic Record, and it's adjusted for wind speed too, for when that matters. There are 25 track events down on this sheet:
Call it something other than the Golden League (perhaps the Gaolden League, ha ha? Perhaps not!) and we can start sign-ups. Note these are track events only, as thats all that was on this sheet that KP made, Man that was so funny! :D. |
