The USA had always based the winner of the Olympics by the total number of medals won, be it Gold, silver or Bronze but in China, it has always been based on the Type of medal, where the country who wins the most number of Gold medals is the winner.

People only remember the winners in any event, no one cares who comes in 2nd or 3rd. Enough said. :biggrin:

Ranking is based on number of gold medals, the winners. Silver and bronze medals are consolation prizes for the best and second best losers, nevertheless still losers.
