No RP here, I can't delete this post now aaaaaaaaa.

I'd be thankful if a mod could delete this, thank you.

With all due respect, NS Sports is not IRL Sports. If this is a serious host bid, you are also going to need a much, MUCH more compelling rationale than "I had quite the interesting exercise for symbology class at college." If this is not, you are in the wrong forum.

There is not a "2030 Olympics" as there is in real life, because all nations have their own timescale. What may be 2030 for you may be 1982, 5076, or Year Zero for some other nation.

There is also not an "IOC." There is the Olympic Council, which oversees the entire Olympic ecosystem in NSS. It has a different logo to that used by the real-life IOC, and (to my awareness) doesn't organise a counterpart Paralympics.

Furthermore, the Olympics is a mammoth undertaking and is often hosted by trusted users with years if not over a decade of experience, such as Liventia, Electrum, Ceni, and Quebec and Shingoryeo. By convention, bids are posted in the Olympic Games Discussion Thread. Take a look at previous bids, and spend the next few years gaining hosting experience, before you even think about hosting an Olympic Games - Summer or Winter.

No, this isn't a serious bid. I just wanted to share some work I did based on my NS state.I don't know how to sports RP, where can I post this?

A dispatch on gameside, quite frankly...

As Tinhampton alluded to above, the NS Sports subforum does not really engage with the real life Olympics cycle, nor do we have an IOC in the sense that my nation or Tinhampton would be on the council alongside France and Spain. You're more than welcome to check out the Olympic Games Discussion Thread; you unfortunately just missed out on signups for the 19th edition of the NationStates Olympics by about a week. The stickied guide to NS Sport has a general overview of the forum and how you can get involved in events.

Welcome!

Damn, this could've been in handy before posting, har har har. Well, thank you very much for informing me.
