I love the idea behind this. America has their fucked up system for deciding who's in front, why can't other countries?

I wonder how many different countries you can put up in #1 using different obscure systems, with the only limitation that a gold must always be ≥ a silver ≥ a bronze, and any divisors must be something you can make a somewhat reasonable argument actually are likely to have an impact on a nation's ability to perform.

I bet Australia wins on per inverse population density. (It's hard to get enough people to good trainers if they're so spread out!)
