My Concept for SEIV Olympics
I see this as a very long term event where
1. Personal and national politics are set aside
2. Personal negative feelings toward other players are set aside
3. Teams are made up of players from the same nation or region except where there are not enough players available from that nation.
4. The games consist of a variety of enabled and disabled features. Some of the “disabled features” may be via rules of the Olympic Convention ™. The games will also use of various mods.
5. Scores will be applied as objectively as possible to each game.

I am open to suggestions for and help with every area. I am sure the above is over simplified. I am willing to step down from this position if there is sufficient concern about my neutrality or competence.

Regarding personal and national politics. Friendly Cheering is welcome. Flag waving is welcome. I hope I do not have to spell out what is not.
Regarding personal negative feelings toward other players from your nation or another. You are required to put them aside or even better let go of them. Life is too short.
I will have no qualms banishing people from the games for violation of the above.
Regarding team composition. It may be necessary to combine players from different nations for larger team games while allowing them to represent their nations in solo or smaller team play.
Regarding what the games will consist of. I need suggestions here. I am thinking of
Very Generic
Rock Paper Scissors Mod
Using Grid Maps
High Tech Starts,
Low points, high points, Map on, Map off

Regarding score keeping. I will need some help here.
Regarding a web page. I can give someone the ability to maintain one or if people do the pages I can upload them.

Ideas? Anybody?

That should cover everyone in the Scandinavian team (Max 8 images per post allowed).

But, actually, this flag:

was for a time the same for almost all of the scandinavian territory, so it will be good enough I belive.

I think pablo didnt understood the idea of se olimpics. And as far as i understand it is a load of a job to organise it.
I think this should be done like this:
there should be a web page
with registration, that has a choise of a country (team) to belong to.
There should be one person responsible for setting deadlines, defining rules and choosing teams to play against each other. Of course this could be done in a matter of discussion, but it would take much more time.
And there should allso be some summarisation of results for each game, with winners and others.

The whole idea of this reply is to make Griffin to forget the se olimpics idea

=================
Dont worry - be happy.
