Slowly easing myself back into NS Sport after a bit of a break, but Liventia (LEN) will take part.

Additionally, offering my services to help host.

IC Information
The cities: Athletes will be based in Schimpol, while sailing will take place off Lox Land island – where the sailing during the Orean summer Olympics was held.

OOC Information
Experience: I've hosted the NS Olympic Games three times (two winter, one summer).
Scorinator: Xkoranate works perfectly well; I will use a spreadsheet to keep track of the fleet race standings.
Bonuses: Each entry will be signed up with an attribute of 0–100 (inclusive), averaging out at 50; a generous RP bonus will be applied with more bonus for actual sailing mentions rather than generic RPs.
Format: I will run four 10-race fleet races, two other reverse-scoring fleet races (race winners score [total boats x 1.5] points rounded up if necessary, counting downwards one point for each position), as well as a mixed match race event (with qualifying races if necessary) and a mixed disabled sailing 10-race fleet event. A separate team competition will run alongside to determine the overall champions.

Why the delay by 24 hours for "at least one more vote"? Without any further explanation for this, I'm not satisfied with the integrity of the voting process.

The vote was tied 2 to 2. If you'd like I can bring in a third nation and redo all votes, or post screenshots of my inbox.

Don't worry, the rest of us are fine with the "integrity of the voting process" of the first run of a competition.

Which class of Olympic dinghy should we use? The rep you've asked us to submit is the team's overall Captain, aye? Are we running one or two person boats? And what class? Laser, Finn, etc.? I'm just trying to get it down for RP purposes.
