>gold is obtained from winning>bronze is obtained from winning>silver is obtained from losingDoesn't make much sense does it
Not if it is a racing event
>>153538767They shouldn't even award medals to 2nd and lower in races.>>153538540Loser's bracket winners should get silver.
Gold = win+winSilver = win+lossBronze = loss+winKWAB = loss+loss
>>153538852Really there should be a silver medal match between the loser of gold and winner of what is now bronze
>>153538852is this loss?
>>153538913But you could only have that after gold is decided. No one would watch.

>>153539018But they win the medalThey don't lose the medal
>>153538540true, if silver loses to gold they should have to fight bronze for final silver
>>153538852>KWAB = loss+lossKEK!
>>153538540Silver medalists are the true winners because their medals are the most pure of the three awarded, where gold medals are faking their appearance and bronze medals are mere alloys.
>>153540175but... bronze IS an alloy
>>153540175>no goyim, we can absolutely not afford to spend money on proper gold medals
>>153540175>bronze>literally contains no tin
>>1535401756 grams of gold on a worthless medal for meme mickey mouse games no one gives two shits about seems like a terrible waste of such a finite resource tbqh
As well as the top 3 getting medals, the top 8 in each event get a certificate, known as an Olympic DiplomaThat's cute
