Admittedly I lost track of the golds in judo but yeah, it was always more than 10. That was one of the easier 'YES' bets.

 

Medallists from 2004 Athens games should also be an easy 'YES' even if someone only counted for Allyson Felix as the most obvious name. Zagunis, Cassara in team fencing and the immortal Formiga in women's football still viable options to choose from

 

The bet says medalists in individual events though  So team sports and team events in general don't count.

 

 

 

I suggested "Japan wins 7 golds in Judo" but Wumo for some reason changed it to just 7 medals, which is an obvious yes.

I'm not doing that well I think, I've lost 39 points from the maximum so far.

 

 

On the other side, I've got five 10-pointers right and none wrong. But they were probably the easiest ones.

To some people: remember the deadline for the bet contest is today (or let's just say in 16 hours) and not saturday like for most other contests

About bet contest...

 

 

55- has spelling mistake.

 

100- Means they will have 2 in men's top 6 and 2 in women's top 6, right?

 

107- Can you clarify this a bit? 

 

119- it means the first medal in this sport, not necessarily the first medal overall for the country, right?

 

125 - "repeat of the podium" is the 3 teams in literally the same order?

 

 

Also, I know we were a bit lazy with the suggestions this time... not a complaint though.

 

10 - Philippines or Malaysia will win their first olympic gold medal. [YES/NO - X]

15 - Malaysia will win a gold medal. [YES/NO - X]

+1. My suggestion: instead of selected matches or picking medallists, have a random draw and pick any 2 sports, one per gender, only. Provided you have time for them, otherwise drop it altogether. 

Better than a draw, just make a poll and let users pick one or two team sports. 

 

Just please no monstruosity like the 2012 "men's field hockey + women's football" contest, that was... not good. I prefer to have a single normal contest even if some sports will be left out.

It will be a single contest for all team sports. It will be in the "picking-the-medallists"-format. I will be managing all contests, maybe with the exception of the Bet contest as I have heard from one user that could maybe be interested in managing this one. It would have been too much for me to have different team sport prediction contests. I did consider which format to be used for this contest. Either the "picking-the-medallists"-format or selecting a few matches each days from different team sports and keep it in the team sport prediction format. I chose the former as I had to be realistic with myself on how much of a workload I would put on myself during the Olympics where I also want to be able to watch and enjoy top-class sports. 

Both formats are terrible. I'd rather not have any contest for team sports if it's gonna be like that. But it's just me.
