BlameThePixel!

Since many have wanted more olympics to come, the third olympics won't be a whole year away
worm olympics #3 will be hosted all throughout july and august
The site (http://wormolympics.be) will be updated soon and you will be able to apply for tourneys you want to host on the site
you can pick any scheme you'd like to host and if you want to use it, the site has a page for making the pairings
We want to have an example replay on the separate tournament pages for each scheme (which would mainly help in explaining the less known schemes that will be hosted) so if you are going to host a tourney in the olympics, please send an example replay where the rules are explained in the chatbox in a few lines. The replay doesn't have to be very long
For each tourney hosted, the top 3 get medals, as was the case in the previous editions
This means that if there are 4 players in the semi finals, the losers of that round will play a game for the bronze medal
In case of 3 people in the semis, the mod can pick to either give a free round to one player or have either a game with 3 ppl (with ffa or ktl, to the mod's choice) or have all 3 players play one another once; the one that wins against both his opponents obviously wins gold, while the player that wins one gets silver. if it's 1-1-1, you could (for example) look at the amount of hp left for the winners each round
There can be only 1 player without opponent per round; if 20 people join, you're not supposed to give 12 freebies so you'd have 16 players left next round

As with the previous olympics, replays should be sent to replays@wormolympics.be
There's one change with regards to the previous olympics: not sending in replays will cost you medals!
if we're missing more than 5 replays of any player, we will take away one medal for each replay, starting with gold
so if for example one player hasn't sent in 7 replays, he/she will lose 2 medals
should this person send in his/her replays just a few days later, he/she will get back the medals
(sorry for this, but it doesn't affect people that send in their replays, only people that refuse to)

I hope to see lots of people there!
and there's no crime in spreading the news a bit beyond btp

Will someome host a "Worms Diving" competition please?

im probably gonna host a fort or two. maybe some intermediates too. im excited - i missed the last one.

should i represent america or my land of poland?

the u.s. is overrated

>_> doesnt answer my question muchly - yes - us is overated.

Well, in the previous olympics, Flamie/Hip played for Lebanon (where he was born), while he lived in Canada
it's all up to you who you represent

but you'll have to give us your country and clan (if you're in one) at the signups at the actual tournaments
Abd, if you want a worms diving competition, start one
