1-3, times out. Failed by Elias IX

Add the following text to the end of Rule 2.1:

Immediately after an Olympian goes Idle, the Team gains Bronze, Silver and Gold medals equal to the number e had when e went Idle.  Should e be de-Idled later in the Dynasty, eir Team loses those medals.Because e was idle when the changes happened, e still has all Medals e had before when e de-idles, the Team just holds onto them in the meantime.

No, I don’t think there will be any kind of implementation problem

Actually wait, what if the team doesn’t have them to lose when he returns…  against

No vote yet, I’m still thinking about it.

On a related note, I’m a little unclear as to how team medals work.  It looks like a medal won by an individual Olympian is not also treated as a team medal for the Blognomic team.  However, in those events in which both individual Olympians and virtual competitors representing rival teams compete, if a virtual competitor wins a medal then the medal is credited towards the rival team.

Doesn’t this unfairly keep the Blognomic team’s medal count artificially low compared to the medal counts of the rival teams?

ChinGoDu: Given that there’s no way for the team to lose medals, this isn’t an issue.
