Add a sub rule to 2.4 called Awe, stating:

The Olympians holding the greatest number of points in each attribute gain one Popularity Point. (e.g. if Bucky has more Strength than anyone else, e gains a Popularity Point. If ChinDoGu has more Dexterity and more Wit than all other Olympians, e gains two popularity points.) This may only be done once while the Olympian has the most of that attribute. The moment this ceases to be true, e loses the Popularity Point e gained. (e.g. if spikebrennan trains eir strength so that e has more than Bucky, Bucky loses the point e gained, and spikebrennan gains a point.)

If a single Olympian has a higher sum of all eir attributes than all other Olympians, e gains 3 Popularity Points. The moment this ceases to be true, e loses the three points.

If an Olympian meets the requirements to gain popularity points because of this rule, but e is unable to gain the Popularity Points, e does not lose a Popularity Point when this ceases to be true: An Olympian can only lose as many Popularity Points as e gained. If an Olympian is using the Banned Trainer, e is not eligible to win any popularity points from this rule.

This way Olympians with too much popularity to gain anything from this rule aren’t hurt by it, and the current highest attribute holders can gain the popularity point before losing it if someone overtakes eir attribute points. Because of the way the Banned Trainer rule is stated, this rule could have adverse affects on Olympians who use the Banned Trainer. Plus, people won’t respect an Olympian who uses that trainer, despite eir muscliness or intelligence.
