Totallympics german users meltdown ?

 

 

Why? :mumble:

Germany is projected to go 5th (Germany should always aim for the 4th place behind Russia/China/USA, unless Japan/France/GB host the olympics, then 5th place should be the goal) and win 5 more medals than in 2016.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

The prediction for The Netherlands - 12-12-13 - is ridiculous. I think Netherlands will be happy with 20 medals (1 more than in Rio).  

 

Well, in totallympics medal table :NED has even more: 12-12-15...

 

Often in these predictions/projections/whateveryoucallthem the big nations have inflated counts because many smaller nations start caring when the olympics are close (cuz funding only appears then, etc).

And because they don't look at chances, but at medals only. A hypothetical nation with 20 4th places at world champs in the past two years will be projected to win 0 medals, whereas several medals is actually a lot more realistic in that case.
