The Runolympics start NOW!
This topic marks the true start of the 2015 edition of the Runolympics!

However, it would be great to know who is in which team first, wouldn't it? Well that's what we are here for RIGHT NOW! Five of the people who signed up had the chance to be able to create the best team they can, it is time to see how this turned out.
But first, let's give a round of applause to the 5 team makers!
*vivid applause*
Teams have been made following process: we've asked each team member to order the 27 non-team-maker entrants. We've then attributed a random order to the team maker (the order showcased above), and, following that order, we've picked each time the highest available member on said list for each team maker, one after the other. This means we chose the highest member on Raz's list, then the highest on Nan's list, then on Shroom's list, then on xpo's list, then on nin's list, then back to Raz's, etc...
The five team makers had different strategies: some privileged affinities, some strategy. Anyway, without further ado...
FIRST PICK
*the five members walk on stage and join the team makers. Hugs, handshakes and nods ensue*
Congratulations guys! Most of you were each team maker's top member.
Let's continue!
SECOND PICK
*the 5 new members shows up on stage and joins their team*
I like how for the first pick everyone had a nice 150x150 avatar, but this time avatar dimensions were all over the place. YOU ARE MAKING MY JOB HARDER GUYS
THIRD PICK
*the five members happily join the teams they have been attributed to*
We're almost here!
FOURTH PICK
*all five walks to the stage, waving at the cheering crowd*
Since we had 32 entrants, this means both Green Team and Team Dark will get an additional member. Anyway, last but not least...
FINAL PICK
*the final members walk on the stage and join their team*
Alright, we are done!
EVERYTHING BEGINS NOW!
I declare the Runolympics to be officially open now! As promised, team subforums will be available soon, where you will be able to get ready for the first event, the Art Contest (and more if you want)! This post is a bit messy, so another topic with clearer lists of who is in which team will be posted tomorrow. This topic is only for dramatic purposes...
Feel free to discuss, and don't forget about the Art Contest! It will start on the 13th of July, so
you have until the 12th of July, 11:59pm PST to choose a representative!
Good luck to all the teams!
