Well, when the torch is put out, these summaries, dodgy Photoshops and leaderboard tracking will be done. Thanks to you lot I enjoyed it!

 

Thank you for making this the most active national club for Paris 2024 on Totallympics. The daily threads ranged from about 100-200 posts a day. This blows our biggest rival clubs out of the water

 

Many of you took part in the Question of the Day and some of you even got some questions right. It seemed that for every sport most people didn't know, someone was on hand to explain. It looks like cjsavory will be the winner unless Olympicsnell puts up a Pidcockian effort at the end

 

We've had brilliant moments, near misses, promises (or threats) to cyber streak if the Dutch hockey team didn't win, and more serious moments too like the Dujardin discussion

 

I hope you stay around for the Paralympics, Milan and LA cycles, major world championships, qualifying, and the phantom Commonwealth Games
