Cheers and thanks for organising this. Good luck everyone (except McG, the Manure-supporting #$%&*#).

The list is complete...

I have had to remove Jahiegel as he/she never came back in time.

There are 28 players but 12 including myself are from my work and are playing for a prize pot, I will mark them with a "*" on the leaderboard

and for once

mascots that aren't scary/creepy

Alternate forms of this tournament have been discussed in the past. Points per athlete might be an interesting way to do it. Here are the 2012 results for those that scored at least one point (pardon the crappy formatting):

Thanks, wheel! I've been looking forward to it!

Sunday has 14 medal events

PS Let me know if you think your points might be wrong and I'll double check I haven't copied someone else's

I've gone over this a few times, and I think you've credited me with an extra silver medal. I count a total of 3G, 6S, 5B for 38 points. Also, markr has the same countries I do except for Kazakhstan (0-1-1)instead of my Poland (0-0-1), so I should still be three points behind markr.

Silver medals, 2 USA - Men, 2 USA - Women, 1 Japan, 1 South Korea & 1 Brazil

This might help to see what medals u have won

Thanks for the quick follow up.

My sources (Google and https://www.rio2016.com/en/medal-count-country) are showing no silvers for Japan and two for China, not one each.

Your right, I decided to give the silver to Japan instead of China in the men's 400m freestyle

This should be right now, thanks for keeping me right.

Good forum, guys. Keep up the good work, and Thank You.

Wow, looks like a fancy spreadsheet...

Are you tallying the medal counts manually? If so, you're going to drive yourself nuts!

Does this site stay up to date, or just have yesterday's medals? (I'm starting to try to follow) I'm guessing it's up to date.

Hi Wheel158

fortunately not i input the results and that's all....I'll email my file to u if u want to look at it, just pm me ur email address

I'm uploading the standings after every full days events are complete

Right, but I was trying to see what I had going re China and Japan and didn't understand how the Rio link works, if they post at the end of a day or momentarily as numbers come in. You asked us to let you know if we saw some error in our numbers, but I don't know how to tell. On the other hand, I don't really want to be always checking numbers - I'll leave it to you and be happpy.
