Whats IOC rule out for general winner in olympic?

Question

US use method ofoverall medal count

Chine use method of most gold medal obtained

which one is right?

Answer 1

the system used by China is the Olympic standard. it has always been counted that way. Even the US counted that way in previous olympic when they topped the gold medal haul. The only reason US is using an alternative counting system in which bronze and silver medals are given the same weight as gold is the media want to project to the americans that they're still on top. and some americans really do believe theyre winning this olympics and thats very very sad...... huhu
