Gaia Olympics 2k8



Gaia Olympics 2k8, also known as the Gaia Rejected Olympics, will start July 21 and wrap up July 27. As the International Olympic Committee do not see Gaia as a country and therefore cannot host the Olympic Games, Gaia Online will host their own.

Build-Up
On July 2, Bruce Hardcastle and Ricky Baudelaire announced the upcoming games, saying they would 'go down in the annals of history as an unsightly smudge on the soul of athletic completion'. A short manga entitled The Spirit of Competition was released, starring Derek Liu, showing how he supposedly came up with the idea for the Gaia Olympics. A short quiz was also released, asking the Gaian populace for their opinions on the real-life Olympics.
