Super Duper awsomeness

Description: The lack of an event that promotes world peace and physical education is very much over do. I am proposing that a comitee called the International Olympic Comitee (IOC) be formed to help organize and host an event in a different UN member country every 2 years.
The Specific terms being:
1.A Every 2 years a summer olympic event and a winter olympic event be held in a different country each of those five years.
2.A Every country will have an olympic team that participates in these events in a Playoff style fashion
2.B. During the 2 years each temas country will play different teams that rank each countries team in a point system. The best 300 of those teams will then move on to compete in the Olympics.
2.C Throughout the season random drug test will occur every 3 months.
3.A All interested countries who wish to host an olympic event can bid their country once every 12 years if they win the bid.
3.B If the country bids and doesn't win they can try again and again until they make it
3.C All countries who bid must have newly renovated athletic complexes within 10 years and must undergo complete safety inspections.
4.A A countries team must have a universal jersey with their countries colors somewhere on their jersey
Extras:
The IOC is to be an unbiased comitee
If a country chooses they don't have to participate in the Olympics

The olympics is probably the most attempted (in terms of major, serious attempts) and failed area of UN law. It is one of the hardest to get through because the RL IOC is impossible to model in the UN. Add on that some people have noted in the past "We already have Olympic games, they just didn't need a UN mandate to be run"

....Fine
The Specific terms being:
1.A Every 2 years a summer olympic event and a winter olympic event be held in a different country each of those five years.
I lost you as of the word "each". There's a single event?
2.A Every country will have an olympic team that participates in these events in a Playoff style fashion
So the entire team plays, say, Hockey and we keep working our way up using.....a playoff style fasion
Define playoff style (yes, I know what you mean by it, but the UN Gnomes didn't, AFAIK, grow up watching humans play sports)
2.B. During the 2 years each temas country will play different teams that rank each countries team in a point system. The best 300 of those teams will then move on to compete in the Olympics.
define temas - or fix that typo. Your choice
So you will have a 1 in 100 chance of getting a team into the olympics....interesting
It takes a few minutes to try and figure out what you're trying to say here. Might want to reword it.
2.C Throughout the season random drug test will occur every 3 months.
Ok, we'll randomly test one player out of all the teams every 3 months to discourage the use of drugs!
3.A All interested countries who wish to host an olympic event can bid their country once every 12 years if they win the bid.
Try "Any country can bid for an olympic event, provided they have not hosted one in the last 12 years"
3.B If the country bids and doesn't win they can try again and again until they make it
Meh, reword my line so you can combine 3 a and b
3.C All countries who bid must have newly renovated athletic complexes within 10 years and must undergo complete safety inspections.
......
HUH?
4.A A countries team must have a universal jersey with their countries colors somewhere on their jersey
There's going to be a lot of people wearing the same uniform.

Minimum wage?

Minimum wage?
Hmm......maybe. UN Funding is right up there - though it's definately behind both of these two. Though minimum wage has failed more often due to lack of interest than either olympics or UN funding - the latter two failing because the mods keep deeming them illegal.

Yeah. I've tried this twice. First one got DEATed by the mods, and was the foundation for the rule that you can't have committies staffed by actual people, and the second one just didn't get support, things got busy on my end, and I gave up.
Good luck with it, but I must say you won't have too good of chances. Here's (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Olympic_Games_%28removed%29) the text of the resolution that got deleted, if it helps. Plus a little story that is actually very accurate for not being written by me.

No it is merely for the readers in this thread who didn't realize that in real life the IOC is unbiased and that not every country particapates in the olympics. I probably won't put the banned substances list in the proposal either.

Hey that proposal was damn good. Would you mind re submitting it without the game modifacation. I think that was real solid and ten times better than mine. Then if your doesn't pass I'll use mine as an afterthought.

Add:
3.B.1 The IOC will have a publicly viewable list of all drugs that are considered to be banned substances and may be tested for in the submitted urine samples
Fix:
4.A - countries->country's (all instances)
You also should think about changing your numbering system. The current one is really awkward. At first glance it looks like you have two 2.A's. Try Roman numerals or lower case letters or (i), (ii), (iii).
How does the Olympics (sports including fencing, javelin, archery, shooting, wrestling, boxing) promote world peace?

Kernwaffen only wants to know your definition of drugs, so that he can outline it in his absurd proposal, get rid of that piece and put all his competing athletes on steroids so he can win. Then he'll slur victory because he had nothing to do with drugs, nor did the team while he's doped up.
And I'm going to blow any olympic's up that have a UN mandate.

It brings everyone together to so that they can show patriotism for their country and so that athletes can show sportsmanship to one another. An event where everyone in the world is trying to get to one place.

Because patriotism has traditionally been an agent of world peace. Right...

A 13yr old kid going into a psychiatrists, walks up to the receptionist and says "I. I'm a Lunatic. Can I get some Counselling?" I don' think so. I may be 13, but I know what to do.
I'm going to look in the mirror, because I'm an individual. I'm gonna decide I look okay, my hairs wet because I just got out of the bath. And I'm going to post this saying,
I'm not weird, everyone else is.
You know the first step is denial. Once you can overcome that you'll be okay. My friend had a phyciatrist when he was 13.

And I do believe you mean "overdue." If not, my mistake.
Description: The lack of an event that promotes world peace and physical education is very much over do.
Westenwales was correct, you are looking for the word "overdue".
I am proposing that a comitee called the International Olympic Comitee (IOC) be formed to help organize and host an event in a different UN member country every 2 years.
Take out "I". Say, "The UN hereby create a committee..." or something.
The Specific terms being:
Sounds weird. "The Olympics shall be operated under the following terms", or something.
1.A Every 2 years a summer olympic events and a winter olympic events be held in a different country
Fine.
2.A Every country will have an olympic team that participates in these events in a Playoff style fashion
I don't like being mandated to do this. Perhaps make it optional. I think the mods have ruled that it's not illegal for optionality unless you make it not happen without nation approval: you can allow nations to opt-out of a larger program, although it would probably bump the strength down to mild, if it's not already there.
2.A.i Each country has a randomly selected schedule for one year in all Summer and Winter Sports.
Huh?
2.B. For every win that a country's team gets it earns points. The best 300 of those teams will then move on to compete in the Olympics.
Don't specify an exact number, use a percent to allow for changing numbers of teams.
2.C Drug test will take place every month. Urine samples will be sent into the IOC headquarters and they will be analyzed for any banned substances*.
Okay, although this is a little bit micromanaging (?).
3.A Any country can bid for an olympic event, provided they have not hosted one in the last 12 years
3.B Any country that wins the bid must have all athletic complexes (stadiums, domes, etc.) must pass safety exams to unsure they are safe for the athletes as well as fans
Okay.
3.B.i The IOC will have a publicly viewable list of all drugs that are considered to be banned substances and may be tested for in the submitted urine samples
Good.
4.A A country's team must have a universal jersey with the country's colors, country's name, and national aminal incorparated in the jersey design.
I don't think our national animals have to be on there. How about flag and name?
