    Default How to sort Olympic medal tables -

    So, if you were in charge of sorting the medal table for the Olympic games, how would you do it? By total medals, or by gold medals?
    CBC and Al Jazeera don't have a consensus.

    Table 2 seems more complete, that'd how I'd do it, not that I'm ever going to be in charge of that sort of thing.

    Olympics are more enjoyable when the live feeds don’t start at 9pm. Since I’m partial to hockey, I’ve lost complete interest when NHL players stay home.

    I like the winter olympics. There are so many insane faceplants, much entertainment value.

    I actually really like watching the Nordic disciplines, and had a hard time finding that coverage, so just said fuck it this year. Have some Chinese issues as well which don't help.

    It's always sorted by Gold.

    CBC is just being dumb and trying to make Canadians feel good about themselves for being 3rd place a lot more than other countries.

    Yea. Usually sorted by gold. Not surprised by cbc. I'm surprised they didn't rank it based on # of competitors or participation medals

    Missed a massive opportunity to see how many medals were won by bipods or whatever the acronym is today.

    Oh wait, it’s the Winter Olympics. Nothing to see here.

    I'm sure there's a WeChat group posting the coverage times.

    My coworkers were very reluctant to discuss the Olympics recently. Probably a coincidence.

    Probably different coverage.
    China got gold in every event on their websites.
