Totallympics Summer Games 2020


Recommended Posts

Remember deadline to submit events for inclusion is May 31st. We haven’t gotten too many proposals yet, so I’m a bit worried about this. We fell about bit behind on tests, but I’m pretty sure we’re going to test events on Thursday and Friday this week.

I just don't have much experience with sports games other than some racing games (Grid Autosport), that somewhat dumb but fun little darts game and the now defunct alpine skiing game of Greentube or something :p (downhill only)

Seems like there’s no interest in this, so there’s not really point in doing it anymore.

I wouldn't really say there's a lack of interest, it's more of a lack of inspiration :p At least from my side

Right, and so I just think we shouldn’t waste time on this anymore. I’m sure we all have better things to do.

It might be helpful to try and play some of this stuff against/with each other every now and then to get used to it, and see if in the future it's possible to turn it into a Games-like event. It's quite hard to have an event with a whole host of games which are 99% entirely new to pretty much everyone, instead of taking it step by step.

 

I'd definitely be up for a couple of games, be it one on one or with a couple of other people.

That’s why I so wish the Tokyo 2020 XBox/PC/PS game was out worldwide right now. It would be awesome to get a group together and play that like once a week or something.

Honestly, I really want to do a multi-sports games in Minecraft. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a ton of crossover between Olympic fans and Minecraft players :(

I’ve tried twice to put something together now, and it hasn’t worked out in the end. I actually got rather close on the last attempt, but there wasn’t enough players with compatible versions of the game. I’m going to go for a third try this summer because I literally have nothing better to do.

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
