    How about a ranking based on medals vs. competitiors? If a country had 500 athletes and won 20 medals, is that better than a country having 20 athletes and winning 10 medals? There are many ways to weigh the results and conclude which is better. Joannie Rochette didn't need a gold medal to win the hearts of Olympic viewers.

    How about a point system?
    3 points for a gold medal.
    2 points for a silver medal.
    1 point for a bronze medal.
    Peace.
