Hello everyone! You may or may not remember this thread from the beginning of the year. With 2023 winding down, the time has come to create an updated simulation based on 2023 results! There are a few questions I have that I wonder if anyone knows the answer of.
1. First things first, this time, I want to try to put myself in the shoes of some more strict NOC's and try to reject certain quotas that they normally would. Does anyone have any links to the selection policies for Netherlands and South Africa? I've already found the selection policy for New Zealand. Every other NOC I'm just going to accept all quotas. If there's any other potential quotas that could be rejected, please let me know.
2. Now that Russia and Belarus have been allowed entry, it has made things reeeeeeallly annoying to simulate. I was wondering if anyone knows if there's any sports federations that won't allow them to compete (or have certain limitations)? I know World Athletics is still banning them and World Aquatics is limiting to one athlete for both countries in swimming. Also, will Russia and Belarus be competing together as one NOC?
