Welcome Olympic Champions!
Here is your official website for the Olympic Games competition. You have all now been randomly given a country and we will post the official list soon. This blog will be updated at least once a day with the top three ranked countries, bottom country, countries who have won drawings and/or bonus points and countries who won medals that day. We will occasionally post the full list of countries and their points. This game is all about having fun and getting really excited about the Olympics.

Here is the official point system for the game:
Gold Medal: 15 pts
Silver Medal: 10 pts
Bronze Medal: 5 pts
(If your country ever wins any gold, silver or bronze medals, they will be awarded the point value above.)

However, there are a lot of chances for Bonus points:

1) Opening Ceremonies Drawing: 50 pts, 30 pts and 10 pts
(On the night of July 27th, we will draw a number between 1 - 205 and then we will count as teams enter the stadium, when the number team we draw enters the stadium then we will give that team points. There will be a gold, silver and bronze prize.)
