Suck it you Venusian losers!
It was bothering me that the bronze medal was different… (It still does for the purpose of this chart)
Anyway, that’s the just the other side. More interestingly, the gray hunk of metal is actually from the Eiffel Tower.
Strangley reminiscent of American Football. Americans invent a sport that no one else likes to play. They hold a tournament and proclaim the winner of said tournament “World Champion”.
How are there more bronze medals than silver, and more gold medals than silver?
Ties if the sport allows it. And if 2 people tie for gold, then nobody gets silver.
Nobody wants to be second. The olympics are very competitive.
I have laughed so hard 🤣
Miss Universe has always been won by someone from Earth. Coincidence?
I did some digging and the jury is also always from that planet and also quite racist. It’s not only always someone from earth but also from the human race.
That’s why analyzing power structures is so crucial. I don’t believe that they actively exclude non earthers or non humans, but the jury is more likely to choose their own kind and the people putting together the jury are as well.
Iirc there is a strategy in the US in one team sport for management to have a quota, not in outcome but the shortlist has to contain one non human (or non white, I’m not sure) and that alone raised the outcome because it made people seen that were invisible for the committee before.
you made me want to look it up. apparently the official story is that non humans simply don’t apply as much to even qualify. but of course this is likely a classic case of societal expectations and the way we raise our young.
most wolves for example don’t even know they could apply for miss universe, but that creates a catch-22 type situation where this is informed by lack of representation, which makes wolved think they’re not even considered for miss universe, but in that belief they refrain from applying and there’s a vicious cycle that effectively excludes wolves from miss universe.
Were there so many shared 3rd places?
Sports like boxing come to mind where 3rd place isn’t fought for, it’s just bronze for both losers of the semifinals.
Ah okay makes sense
are the other planets even trying?
Why are they not all the same number? Multiple people got the same medal? Why is this so much more often with bronze?
Iirc judo always gives two bronze medals but I’m not sure if this is the case in the Olympics as well. Maybe other disciplines do the same. And according to the metric, it might be possible to have the same points and therefore share one medal.
Gold having 1 more is weird because you would expect no silver if two have gold and therefore a difference of 2. Maybe in one weight class there only qualified one person and got the medal by default?

It is (I watched an Olympics judo event).
Contest #1: 2 Gold - 0 Silver - 1 Bronze
Contest #2: 1 Gold - 2 Silver - 0 Bronze
Having one gold more makes perfect sense if you look at multiple contests.

Vinesh Phogat was disqualified for being overweight during the weigh-in of the 50kg women’s wrestling final. Her opponent got gold, and both losing semifinalists got silver.
It became a big controversy in India because she had been <50kg for every match until then, and she had previously protested against the wrestling federation - which chose her dietician and other staff - for covering up sexual assault cases.
why is mercure second and all other planets not on the podium ?
They haven’t finished yet, and third place is still TBD
What about Omicron Persei 8? Surely they got some medal in the human eating contest?
Disqualified, Lrrr tested positive for human horn (upper and lower)
God damn it Lrrr. You just had to keep off it for two weeks, TWO WEEKS!
Still shocked they kicked out Pluto over a doping scandal.
Yeah, well, Earth got zero medals in this years Venusian Flame Games. Why not make a chart about that, huh?
I’m disappointed with Uranus!
I’ve heard that before
I’m sad that Pluto got kicked out of the planetary Olympics…
Justice for Ceres!
Pluto is a dwarf plant. They take part in the planetary paralympic games.
