Quote from The Very End :Damn, what you gotta do to get 17+ then?! O_o

Well his execution score must have been like 8.6, which considering how hard it was (most people's difficulty ratings are like 6-ish) is pretty amazing.


EDIT: I think I've been watching too much gymnastics :hide:

First time I've seen all of that together, nice

Quote from The Very End :Holy shit! What score did he get, and what's the max score?

Apparently he got 16.533, difficulty was 7.9 (:O) so it was out of 17.9

Quote from DeKo :Talking about ranking stats differently, Scotland would be 6th in the medal table if they were seperate from GB. Not saying they should be, but quite interesting. They have got 10 of the 37 medals of team GB despite only making up 10% of the squad.

And apparently Yorkshire would be 7th

Quote from DeKo :Drugs and doping are terrible for Athletics, but who doesn't want to see a Dope 100M final with the winner running it in 7 seconds.

Quote from sinbad :I based the 300 on a single google search so you may be right, but regards it's a start that needs to be taken with a large pinch of salt.

Ah yes definitely. It's pretty skewed for both extremes of population and extremes of medals. I'll update it tonight and see what's changed.

@ TVE you can guess who won. No new WR though

Quote from sinbad :It's a bit hard for China. All 300 medals divided by their 1344 millions, is 0.22. Those charts will always favour the smaller nations because whilst you may have more people to choose from, you can only enter the same number of events as everybody else.

Yes of course. I totted up the medals last night (and got 427) and even if they'd have won every single medal they would still only be 21st on medals per person :P Will do it again tonight and see if it changes, which it could well do if a small country gets even 1 medal

EDIT: Obviously they wouldn't be 21st if they'd got all the medals, they'd be 1st, but you know what I mean :P

So yeah the BBC lied when they said we were top of the "golds per population" table. Interesting to see how badly China are doing compared to their population size - 30th out of 34 for golds per population.

China: 0.018 golds per million population, 0.039 medals per million population
USA: 0.082 golds per million population, 0.171 medals per million population

Team GB: 0.225 golds per million population, 0.467 medals per million population

So one medal per 2 million population - not bad

Apparently top of medals per population

I'm pretty sure VW wanted it made for some games convention, then they'd put it in LFS. No money changed hands.

Quote from Intrepid :You just have to trust the stewards/officials to enforce the rules but I certainly wouldn't judge athletes who 'push' it.

Exactly - we got DQ'ed from the women's sprint for a very very small infringement (for which the judges have "discretion") and the Chinese got DQ'ed for an even smaller one. So if there were any issues they would have been DQ'ed right away.

To be fair France could have done exactly the same thing on the restart if they didn't think they'd gotten a good start. Slightly silly rule IMO.

Quote from MadCat360 :Yes.

No? You can get at least to C in road on standard content and I think you can maybe get to even B on ovals (what class is the new SS series?)

EDIT: But yeah you can't get to A on standard content :P

EDIT 2: Hmm seems you can only get to D oval on standard content. I swear on the forum they've been going on about how you can get to B on standard content. Stupid Americans.
