Elma Olympic Games?
I don't know if this is novel idea. We can have a tournament like Olympics where people will compete in different elma disciplines. Unlike World Cup it will be based on EOL battles rather than setting best time in lev during some period of time. I would prefer it to be competition of nations rather than teams like in WCup. Each winner will be awarded gold medal, for 2nd place silver and next place bronze. Then we can have a medal table and best nation would win the Olympics Games.
The disciplines could be:
-Normal (normal battle)
-Holya (very short battle)
-TL (long "impsy" TL lev)
-Pipe
-One life
-FF (normal FF)
-Uphill FF
-Slowness
-Survivor
-Last Counts
-Flag Tag
-1 hour TT
-Apple
-Speed
I don't think I will be able to organize it by myslef and I don't have much hope it will ever take place anyway...
What do you think about it? Do you have any suggestions: Who could participate? Should there be any qualification, how the finals should be carried. Should it be one day/week event or something else? What disciplines should be included? Discuss plz.

bring back long jump discipline !
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
generaly speaking i like the idea of testing various aspects of kuski skill. Don't have interest in participating though. I also think each category needs at least a couple of battles. But if such contest ever hapens ill happily contribute with some uphills, hoyläs or clinb levs etc
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
less talking, more doing. i want to see zweqs doing impsy things
<Pawq> at a gym you have only 3 options: 1. have your eyes closed, 2. stare at yourself, 3. stare at others, all of which are either super boring or disgusting

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
To simulate the real olympic situation you should first give the levs for free practicing and then battle them as one-life battles in EOL. xd
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
You could also have pipe climbing, pole hopping and no-gas uphills. I press for the latter.
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Hm, imo the crippled stuff could be saved for the crippled elma olympics
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Maybe have four runs in lev like skeleton and best total time wins
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Also being the olympics, not everyone should be invited, only the top players in each category will be able to compete
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
I like the idea with nations competition.
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Top players? Who would decide? I mean, there is like 5 player which are over "nabs", but after that many in the same level of quality.Thundr- wrote:Also being the olympics, not everyone should be invited, only the top players in each category will be able to compete

He obv. means the "top" top.
This pretty much sums that up: http://www.moposite.com/records.php?m=tt

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Internal tt doesnt show it correctly, since not everyone plays them. Also, many of them inactive, or not participate in "cups".
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
I believe that some players could have guaranteed place in final and everyone else could qualify. The main issue however is that there is no way I can restrict who should play certain battles as in EOL anyone can enter any battle. Beside that I would need some site where results could be displayed. I would need a lot of help with that. Once this is done, the exact format of event and levels aren't much issue to be honest. The levels could be battled once a week or everyday for 2 weeks or even during 1-2 days. I'm open to any ideas or suggestions.

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Well I was more thinking in terms of having qualifiers ye, not actually someone sitting down deciding who gets to play what cuz that be pretty dumb obviously. So when the actual "olympics" start, only the top whatever who qualified gets to participate in the actual competition.Labs wrote:Top players? Who would decide?

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Is there any reason for filtering only top players into the main contest? In real olympics it's obviously because it's not possible to organize so that everyone is able to participate, but that's not an issue here.
then again i don't know anything
maybe easier not to think abouut alöl things thought than not things thought ... or something..=?

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Yeah no reason, in something like alpine for example there is usually 70-110 participants, which is numbers you see rarely in elma competitions, so if you're going for mimicking no reason to cut away anyone.Lousku wrote:Is there any reason for filtering only top players into the main contest?

I don't see any reason for stuff like this either, most competitions in olympics mimicks the way they normally do that sport, they do only 1 run in downhill with free practice beforehand because that's the way they always do it in the world cup events etc. So better to do elma like we usually do elma. Can of course have one life, tt etc. as individual events.nick-o-matic wrote:To simulate the real olympic situation you should first give the levs for free practicing and then battle them as one-life battles in EOL. xd
An easy way to make a collection of battles is the battle league system on eol site, of course doesn't have the exact type of stats you want, but it's a start.
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
True there is no actual reason aside from the feeling that you sort of play the competition in different steps like qualifying (everyone can join) > quarter > semi > final. At least thats what Im thinking with "olympics" otherwise could just name it "uphill/longjump/blabla competition" play a lev and be done with it and no one will remember.
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Oke as I understand anyone would be able to compete. Also I guess in this case some or every discipline may need more than 1 battle to decide the winners. Anyway I may soon start some polls so I will know what you prefer.
@Kopaka so how would the EOL league system work? Is it possible to generate the medal table?

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
I got an idea from this, make battle based cup with various categories, and maybe 5 battles per category and 3 best results per player in each category counts. I might organize something like this in a couple of months, we'll see. Also I would contribute levs if someone else does this.

You can check out the mopobattle page as an example http://elmaonline.net/statistics/league/1Chris wrote:@Kopaka so how would the EOL league system work? Is it possible to generate the medal table?
I tried something out with medals: http://kopasite.net/up/aq0eah8803o2357/medaltable.png
Letters means Gold, Silver, Bronze, total amount, points: 3 for gold, 2 for silver, 1 for bronze as a way to sort it, but no sorting is done here atm
Re: Elma Olympic Games?
Oh man this is awesome! One way is always to actually vote players for each battle category and obviously each nation should do that seperately. We could for have 3 players from each nations in every different battle and every nation would decide best 3 players for that exact balletype. So not just 3 good players from each nation playing the whole contest.
I personally think that only adding different battletypes only isn't enough. There should/could be different variations of some seperate tricks and just the settings overall (shown or not, normal balle or
onelife, etc)
Keep giving ideas and comment my ideas freely! I can help somehow if this gets serious

Thanks for all comments. I'm reading everything and soon I will make a topic where you would be able to fill some form or vote and I will see what everyone wants. I just need to ask right questions. I also want as many people as possible to help me with organizing. I don't want the whole thing depend solely on me. If it happens it will take place no earlier than 2nd weekend of May. Stay tuned.

Re: Elma Olympic Games?
In all seriousness, this isn't half a bad idea for events. Elma with restrictions is interesting too.Tigro wrote:Let´s make elma paralympic games. Much more fun.
