As many of you will know, we have decided to form an executive committee to decide the nature, content and venue of the Nerd Olympics, known as the Nerd Olympic Board, or NOB for short.

What we haven't discussed yet is a leader and forgive me if I am speaking out of turn, but I would like to nominate Marc as the head of this board. Would other nerd members please indicate if you think Marc is a NOB-head as well.

== Participants ==
 
We need a list of definite competitors for the Nerd Olympics. It seems as though we may have a few new additions. All competitors should be willing to participate in the whole competition. The list of definitely competitors is as follows:
 
* Marc
* Lee
* Neil
* Abi
* Matt
* Elín
* Tim
* Sissy
 
Although this is the finalised list, we are allowed guest competitors. The guest competitors are allowed to win prizes but will not earn any points or affect the score of the main participants
 
== Venues ==
 
The Nerd Olympics will be held at a variety of stadia around England. Each host should aim to hold about four medium sized events. People willing to host events are as follows:
 
* Neil / Abi - Hemel Hempstead
* Marc - Milton Keynes
* Lee - Birmingham
* Tim / Sissy - Leatherhead
* Elín / Matthew - East Claydon
 
== [[Round 1 - Hemel Hempstead Stadium]] - 9 & 10 September 2005==
 
Is any-one interested in having round 1 of the nerd olympics this weekend? At our flat (Neil & Abi)? It'd just be a good excuse to play SingStar. Abi's working on Saturday but people could come round Saturday evening and have some events on Sunday morning? I'll have to hunt out a good pool pub. We could formulate a final list of events for round 1 in the meantime via the Wiki.
 
'''Note''': Tim can't make this weekend, and doubtless other people won't be able to too, so we'd have to think of another date. Any ideas?
 
'''Note''': Lee also can't make this weekend as she is moving house!!!!!  Her room is now a moving mess, but it is all very exciting.
 
Next weekend is proms in the park
 
Maybe the weekend after that (22nd & 23rd) or in six weekends time?
 
22nd & 23rd is good for me - ''Neil''
 
'''Note''': Please don't have it without Lee. She really wants to play too...
 
'''Note''': Can I play? - ''Elín''
 
Yeah, of course! - Neil
 
'''Note''': ^_^  - ''Elín''
 
Elín will have to get bonus nerd points before even starting the competition for going through all the effort of typing that funny unicode character in her name everytime! - Neil
 
'''NEWS FLASH''' - What about having the first round on the 9th September? It is also my bifday weekend so we can have a piss up for that (and Elin's and Lee's bifdays as well if they want). Whaddya fink? ''Abi''
 
'''POSTMORTEM''' - Please note that the wrong scores were read out at the end of this round. I had forgotten to include the extra point for coming first. The positions, however, remain the same. ''Marc''
 
=== Events ===
 
* Sudoku
* The Minute Game
* Death Tank
* Sing Star
* Typing
 
== [[Round 2 - Birmingham Stadium]] - 23 & 24 September 2006==
 
=== Events ===
 
* Paper aeroplane -oops
* Getting really tetchy when people don't know how to spell 'aeroplane'...
* Hearts
* Tetris
 
== [[Round 3 - Milton Keynes Stadium]] - 7th August 2010 ==
 
=== Events ===
 
* Scrabble (including animated debate before-hand, over the rules)
* Bop-it extreme
* Cheat
* Calculator relay test
* Something else?
* Something else?
 
== [[Round 3 - Dorking Stadium]] - 12th OR 19th May 2007==
 
=== Events ===
 
* Pool
* Eurovision
* Swingball?
 
== [[Round 5 - Hemel Hempstead Stadium 2]] - 24th & 25th November ==
 
The Hemel Hempstead stadium has been newly rebuilt with a much larger premises including a new garden outdoor arena (with shed facilities) and full wired and wireless network access throughout. The stadium is neatly located between two train stations with ample on-street parking nearby.
 
=== Events ===
 
* Swingball
* [http://smw.72dpiarmy.com/ Super Mario War]
 
== [[Round 5]] ==
 
== Scoring ==
 
I propose three different methods of getting points in the olympics: main rounds, bonus rounds and bonus points.
 
=== Main Rounds ===
 
The main rounds score the most points and everyone competing will get a point.
 
As Marc suggested it'd be nice if everyone gets some points for each round so I propose that for each round you should get 1 point for coming last, 2 for coming 2nd to last and so on up to the number of competitors, but then you should get one extra bonus point for winning the round. If there are any ties then all people who finished at the same rank get the same number of points which is the higher score, (eg, if there are five competitors and two people place joint second then the winner gets 6 points and the two second place people get 4 points each). If anyone doesn't take part in a round then they get zero points but the other players still score as if everyone was taking part. So for example if there are 5 total competitors but only 4 take part in a particular round, with two people placing equal third then the scoring would be as follows:
 
{|
|-
| 1st place
| 6 points
|-
| 2nd place
| 4 points
|-
| 3rd place
| 3 points
|-
| other 3rd place
| 3 points
|-
| Non-partaker
| 0 points
|}
 
As an additional twist I think that each competitor should be allocated one joker card (like they do in pub quizzes). Any player can adopt to play their joker card for any round, although it can only be played once. After playing the card the competitor will get double points for that round, but the competitor must choose to play the card ''before'' the round commences. So for example if Abi thinks she will do particularily well in the SingStar round, she can use her joker card then and get twelve points instead of six.
 
'''Note''': Marc: I agree with most of this (and like the joker card idea), but I think it might be best for the winner to get 10 points and count down to 1. If few people participate in the event, it's not fair for the maximum amount of points scored to be less than they otherwise would be.
 
'''Reply''': Neil: I think that was what I was trying to describe, eg "but the other players still score as if everyone was taking part". So if there are 8 total competitors in the whole olympics and one doesn't take part in a particular round then the winner of that round will still get 9 points, 2nd place would get 7 and so on but the person who didn't take part would get zero instead of the free 1 point they could have gotten for just taking part and coming last. I guess it doesn't really make any difference if you count down from 10 instead of counting down from the number of competitors (unless there are more than 10 of course..) except that it would be slightly more of a punishment if you didn't take part because you would be down more than one point.
 
'''Query''': What if someone is taking part in the overall Nerd Olympics but can't make it to that particular round? - ''Lee''
 
I guess as there are only eight competitors we could avoid hosting a round unless everyone can attend? Otherwise as the competiton gets more serious someone will organise an event during a weekday just so that no-one can turn up and they'd get all the points :) - ''Neil''
 
=== Bonus rounds ===
 
For smaller rounds, such as the water tasting test or the Brain Training test, the winner gets two points and nobody else gets any.
 
=== Bonus points ===
 
Bonus points can be awarded by the NOB-head whenever he sees fit although if this is perceived to be unfair there may be a mutiny.
 
'''Comment''': I like the idea of bonus points, for natural displays of nerdiness. (points to be allocated by the NOB-head) for instance: 'Elín' - typing her name in that way, 1 bonus point, Neil -  going on about the scoring system for ages - 2 bonus points. etc. - ''Matt''
 
== Rough Event Ideas ==
 
=== Main Events ===
 
; Musical interval recognition test : Can you distinguish major and minor chords, or a major second from a perfect fourth etc
 
; Folding bike unfolding challenge
 
; [[Specialist round]] : We could have a short quiz where everybody answers questions on somebody else's special chosen subject. We could agree the subjects beforehand to prevent people from picking stupid topics. We'd have to think of someway to stop people picking impossible to answer questions that nobody would ever know though.
 
;: ''Now that we've abandoned the joker cards, can we incorporate them into the specialist quiz round instead? You could get points for each quiz, but you could get double points if you play your joker card. Then the ranks could be taken from the total points. It'd be a lot easier to have joker cards just for this round because all of the categories are known before-hand.'' - Neil
 
; Pool : Standard knock-out tournament, à la the world cup? I think the hotel across the road has pool but I'd have to investigate prices.
