Mito Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) You're at your office as you hear running coming from the hallway. The sound of shoes hitting the ground gets louder and louder when, in through your door, dashes a man in a suit. The suit is sloppily put together and you can see a bottle of Iverica wine in one hand and Mauridivian Tequila in the other. Sir, I'm here to sign the Shffahkian delegation up for the Olympics! He proclaims in a drunken yet excited voice. Afterwards he walks outside the door and you hear a thump. You go and see that the head of the Shffahkian Olympics Committee is passed out before your door. Edited July 16, 2019 by Shffahkia (see edit history) 5 Link to comment

I will begin finalizing my draft for posting tomorrow night. @Fulgistan: Can you send me the name of a few arenas that would be used in the games. I'll figure out how to score events... 4 Link to comment
Sunset Sea Islands Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 @Rihan with all these competitions, is it still like the soccer championships that RP participation increases chances of success? Also, how do you know which teams compete in which competitions, and how are the winners selected? 2 Link to comment
Rihan Posted July 21, 2019 Author Share Posted July 21, 2019 Just now, Sunset Sea Islands said: @Rihan with all these competitions, is it still like the soccer championships that RP participation increases chances of success? Also, how do you know which teams compete in which competitions, and how are the winners selected? @Sunset Sea Islands, what a wonderful question to ask. At this moment, I am assuming every nation is participating in every event or at least every major competition category. For those sports that involve 'rounds' like Football or Field Hockey for example, I will do a very quick score generation and whip up matches in the same fashion on the UENA. For most events, I have a points generator, 0-100. The highest number gets gold, second, and third, hence silver and bronze. Now, you asked about would RP'ing help one's success. It could -- as some nations may not want to compete in every event (which is only realistic for the largest nations). If there are events that you would like a better 'chance' like I have more 'swimming strength' than 'weightlifting strength,' tell me and we can talk about it. I do hope that most nations are able to come away with a few medals. Though for the Little Flau team I mentioned in the intro, they are only able to win, well, so many given the size of their team. 8 Link to comment
Sunset Sea Islands Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 @Rihan Sweet, thanks! I've compiled a list of sports I think my people would be good at, naturally, I am more than ready to RP to earn boni, should such mechanics be introduced (the easiest way would be to introduce point multiplicators, for example, in direct correspondence to written words per competition, whilst keeping it within the limit of 100 points). CC to @Kipan and @Gallambria Also, regarding the football competition, I assume that it's for junior teams, right? I don't know much about this, but iirc Germany always lets its sub 19-year-old teams compete. 4 Link to comment

Since it's our first proper Olympics, I am open to such a move -- perhaps for specific event categories... And yes Junior teams on football, and generally other 'team' comeptitions like field hockey, basketball, baseball, etc. 4 Link to comment
