Olympic Medal Scores

The German public TV shows the medal scores each day. If you want to have a quick look, here is the link. There are some buttons on the top where you can get more details (see pic).

For today, Febr. 12, it shows like this:

Yeah, they score by total number of medals which I think is a better way to look at it.

Easy on the UK big daddy in the house

total is important but I think the informal rankings should reflect the medal colors too. Say Gold=4, Silver=2, Bronze=1 and average the numbers. This would give more weight to the best performances.
Germany is doing very well, Russia, not so much.

Gary, as per your logic it would be:

Germany 33
Norway 28
Netherlands 27
Canada 26
US 26
Russia 22
etc.

Makes sense.

Sure would like to swap some bronze for silver or gold darn-it
