CivWiki:Featured/August 22, 2022: Difference between revisions

The '''[[Olympics]]''' held on [[CivClassic 2.0]] were a recurring large scale community-run sports event. The events were inspired [[w:Olympics|by their real life counterpart]], as well as earlier attempts on [[Civcraft 2.0]]. The [[First Olympics]] were created by the Olympic Committee created by [[WackyAki]] and [[Feathercrown]] and held in the Olympic Village in [[Yoahtl]] in summer 2018. Subsequent iterations of the Olympics were approved by the Committee and were held in [[Second Olympics|The Commonwealth]], [[Third Olympics|Gensokyo]], and [[Fourth Olympics|Mount Augusta]], with independent organizers, new venues, and additionally different events for each iteration. Mainstay events included Spleef, Thimble, and PvP.

The [[Fifth Olympics]] were initially planned to be held in [[Columbia]], however after a civil war and the subsequent outbreak of the [[Infinity War]] in the country, the games were indefinitely postponed. [[Icenia]] announced in late May 2021 that they would assume hosting duties for the Fifth Olympics, which would be held the next month. Columbia was finally able to host the [[Sixth Olympics]] in the country in December 2021 during the waning days of the server. Currently, no Olympics have been announced for [[CivMC]].
