Note about final games. Due to a mistake they were made with Olympics Part 3: Fortius privileges (Game 4231499 & Game 4231500).
Welcome to the tournament that is made in honor of Beijing Summer Olympics!
This tournament will consist of 3 parts that are going to be played not at the same time due to the huge amount of players/athletes that even 1 part needs. I’ve taken all the sports that are used in Beijing and put them into 3 categories: Citius (part 1), Altius (part 2) and Fortius (part 3). First part is 1v1 games, 2nd part team games and third part 3-8 player games. This tournament's point is not to follow Olympics exactly nor make a copy of those games but to try to do something huge in the spirit of Olympics.
Olympics: Altius
Part 2
*Number of Athletes: 208 (104 teams)*
Sign up period: April 12, 2008 - May 8, 2008
First games are made: May 9th, 2008
***EVERYBODY WITH 2 OPEN SLOTS IS WELCOME***
To this part I’ve gathered all the events that need team work and co-operation. You must play with your partner and rely on him/her and he/she has to rely on you. I've lost "sub"-events in this part because I felt that looking for 600 or so players would be too much. But all team events are represented in here. I’d like to bring out that each event is also a clicky that leads you to a site about the sports if you are interested in getting more information about certain events. Check the ending of this post about signing up.
