I dont really follow the olympics so I could be wrong, but doesnt the US basically win them all?

China win 08 pretty easily. Medal counts are stupid anyway.

Hopefully this turns out better than the joke that was last year's.

host country always sees a significant boost in medals. look at the previous 5 olympics or so. US always on top. If only sc2 were like that

and yes, lets hope that WCG isn't anything like it was last year. Part of me wishes they went to all mobile games so we didn't have to worry about their incompetence again.

Online qualifiers for WCG is bad, purely because of the prevalence of hacks and the useless-ness of Blizzard's anti-hacking system. Recall how a hacker was once invited to Blizzard's tournament?

The worst thing about it is: Why didn't he mention the playhem? :S

I'm actually all for a conflictual schedule, that way we get to see more players.
Dead game.

Not really? Main competition for 12 and 3 for olympics used to be germany usa and soviet union. None always won. Now it is china and america. We usually always win basketball though.

He is talking on behalf of the scene, and he is right. Even if he did talk about himself, that would be fine aswell, confidence is a good thing you know?

Everyone has schedules, and i'm sure there are deadlines that WCG has to meet as well. WCG brings so many great memories, and hopefully this will be a good year

you have to put qualifiers on weekends... some people that participate play as the game as a hobby and have real life to do during weekdays

Apparently you don't know how the system ranking works, but it's based on how many golds you win so no they didn't.

Yeah, China won by most golds but USA won by medal count overall.

... What did I just say? Under the Olympic Committee's system your rank is based on Golds first and foremost. That doesn't change what I said man. lol

We can talk about semantics all day about overall, but it doesn't change the fact that under their system they go by the amount of gold medals you get. It's just how they do things. More weight on Gold.

To make it look better, The Canadian Broadcasters were only going based off total medal count as well and always showing the Canadians as 12th when in reality they were really 32th by the Olympic Committe standards.

There's a lot of things I don't agree with when it comes to how the Olympics are ran. We're really picking at straws here.
