Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I'm almost more impressed that 7 people apparently beat Phelps. Guessing those were mostly relays?
I guess the Americans are out trying to huff some compium for their current standings in the Olympics
Wow, 3 Chinese top-medal-earners are what it takes to match 1 Phelps.
Incredible.
There are other measures of dominance. For instance, Bob Beamon set a record at the Olympics that stood for more than 30 years.
Ledecky laps the field in the 1500m (she also has 13 medals so far). No one is competitive with her.
The olympics are a circus that comes to town so they can rob you while you are distracted by the bullshit.
shutup jerkface
It took Montreal 30 years to pay off the debt incurred for hosting the Olympics. Host cities build vast infrastructure that is essentially disposed of after the games because there is no possible use for it absent a world event that is not going to return. Paris brags about being the "greenest Olympics ever," though clearly they are not including the vast environmental impact of inducing millions of humans to migrate across the world releasing megatons of CO2, and temporarily housing them in a place that cannot support them except in a massively unsustainable manner.
My bad Olympics opinion is that you should only be allowed one medal per games. Let more people have fun Michael, damn
Just swim faster than him, duhhhhh
It's kind of skewed with some sports having several events (swimming, gymnastics) where one person can earn many medals and many that are just one unique event.
Interesting to see some variations in the mix though, like 3 on 3 basketball.
Also 8 of his medals were with the sharkskin swimsuit which was immediately banned as it conferred an absolutely immense advantage to those wearing it.
Do you think he wouldn't have won without the suit?
and that's exactly why he doesn't deserve it.
