So every night for 2 weeks there will be a different events held. Each event is a sort of mini-game. You can decide how many you would like to participate in during the 2 weeks.

[Calderyon]

Are the events sports related? They should be.

[SuperV]

Are the events sports related? They should be.

They are sport themed and are a forum friendly versions of the Olympic events they are based on.

Oh and once the host country is selected the design of the contest will be revealed too!

Good. There might be lots of Olympics sports events related games on around the net too. I have seen lots for the throwing events at least.

[SuperV]

^ Love if you could PM me your ideas!

[Jamie89]

Love this idea :clap2: I voted for Australia to host

[Shaun]

In 2012 Google had a bunch of games that we on TiBB played as a tournament and I think MeMyselfandI, Mollie and I were the medalists... maybe Sarah instead of Mollie actually idk... anyway, I just had a look and Google are doing it again but this time as an app. I'm not sure if everyone could post screenshots from their phones on here as their final scores in those events, but there'd be one every day presumably!

[Wizard.]

I like this! I voted for Egypt cause they would have a really interesting opening ceremony :hehe:

Also added the slogans of the bidding nations! Brisbane has a new logo but will replace it when I wake up. Very impressed with the amount of members already paying in a mater of hours.

[Cal.]

I don't really understand this but yeah I'll take part to support it.

[Morgan.]

I don't really understand this but yeah I'll take part to support it.

I think we all pick a country, and we have to do mini-games based on real Olympic sports. We choose what we take part in, and then the person with the most points (medals) wins.
