For the record, I would've voted yay if it hadn't closed so soon. Best wishes to the Shuell Central area on hosting the first IDU Olympiad.
1. Well, as much as a very diverse, life-like Olympics be very cool to have in the region, past hosts of the NS Olympiad will tell you it makes scorinating very complicated due to the sheer number of events. The size of one compared to the other means that we should stick to the basic, more traditional ones first. Aquatics, Athletics are practically guaranteed, because they're basically the main events.
2. Question: When you say time frame, does that mean we're doing them separately, one by one? If not, then the usual time is around two to three weeks, pretty much like a RL Olympiad.
3. I usually say how it's done on the forum as a guideline. In this case, as far as I know, there's never been one way. The most recent, as Laeral (our only entrant for Republica) will also tell you, had a limit on the number of people you had on each separate event. After entering them, with their respective skill levels (for the xkoranate application), you had to ensure that the mean skill level of the entire committee was under 50 (on a 0-100 scale). If you search for the sign-up thread there's a link to a sheet to fill it in, or, you could do it on Excel (but I'm terrible at Excel). It's a bit of a complicated process, and time consuming if you wanted a big Committee - time was literally the only reason I didn't enter.
Hope this was minimally helpful in the process to a successful first IDU Olympics
