Mapperdonian Olympic Games

The Mapperdonian Olympic Games, often shortened to the Olympics, is a monthly multi-national sports event based on the Summer Olympics but with Official Nations in Mapperdonia. This contest was created by KKAP.

Participation
In order to be able to join an Olympic Games, your nation must have registered a recognized National Olympic Committee by the Mapperdonian Olympic Committee. You must provide your nation name, flag, and its capital (if it has a fictional name, please give me its location as well). You may join with a maximum of 3 nations, but you can only participate with 1 in any given game, and they cannot be in the same Continent. FuNations may not join. Once you join, we will provide you with a 3 letter code that corresponds to your nation.

In order to join the Mapperdonian Olympic Committee, you must include the following things in your comment/application:
 * The name of your nation. FuNations are not allowed.
 * The flag of your nation.
 * The capital of your nation.

Once you are accepted, a three-letter code will be given to you. For example, Monteregis' code is MTR.

Judging System
A random generator (specifically this one) will be used to determine which nation wins the competition. The first nation that comes up when the list is randomized will get a gold medal, the second nation will get silver, and the third nation will get bronze. It is possible for a nation to get the gold, silver, and bronze medals in one competition if they have at least three athletes.

Sports with many athletes will be split up into smaller groups of athletes, so more medals will be awarded in popular sports. Sports like volleyball and tennis where there are 2 teams competing against each other will follow be a tournament in which there are quarter-finals, semifinals, etc. It is possible to get two bronze medals in these type of sports if you lose a semifinal.

The nation with the most gold medals will win the games and their country will host the next games. You can have more medals than the winner, but still not win because you do not have as much gold medals as them. New sports will be added each games.

Example
In the marathon, there are 10 athletes: 2 from Monteregis, 2 from Thristarnia, 1 from Ether, 3 from Finland-Sweden, and 2 from Rumas. In the random generator, I will put MTR 1, MTR 2, THR 1, THR 2, ETH 1, FLS 1, FLS 2, FLS 3, RMA 1, and RMA 2. Then, I click the button for the winners. Here's a screenshot of the randomized list:



As you can see, Monteregis won the gold medal, Rumas the silver medal, and the other Monteregis athlete the gold medal. With this information, I will create a table listing these nations:

Then, I add the medals to the overall medal count (Nations who do not have any medals are ranked alphabetically):

In the end, when all the medals are given, the overall medal count table will look like this:
