Eligibility
There are 3 types of eligible teams. Since the 2018 event is basically a testing ground, only the teams of the 1st type are expected.
- Teams for Talossan provinces
- Teams for micronations/unrecognized states
- Teams for UN recognized states that meet certain quota. If more than three countries from a continent request registration, they need to be united into a unified team for a continent (continents are: North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and Oceania.)
No team of the second or third group can be larger than 1/2 of participants of Talossan provincial teams combined. That means, if all seven provinces of Talossa send 26 participants combined, no team of the II or III group can be larger than 13 participants.

Rock-Paper-Scissors
One set of medals will be contested in this discipline.
Rock-Paper-Scissors Talossalympic tournament will have a brackets structure. Participants will be divided into pairs on a random basis, and then the winners will advance to the next round until finals and bronze medal game.
Each game will have a conductor, who will gather moves from the participants. Basically a player sends either "rock", "paper" or "scissors" to the conductor, who, after gathering both moves, announces them and either declares a winner or a draw. If a draw is declared, a new round is played.
If no external team participates, this will be played via Wittenberg.

Talossan Fantasy Football
I don't know how to play this please help
RISK
Two sets of medals will be contested in this discipline.
Rules are yet to be determined, but I think it would be nice to play a "Talossa" map and a "World" map.
Talossapolia
One set of medals will be contested in this discipline.
I think, depending on the number of registered participants, there could be one game or more games, with winners participating in the finals.
Go
One set of medals will be contested in this discipline.

Curling
One set of medals will be contested in this discipline.
I mean why not? This is an Olympic sport, would be nice if Talossalympics had something in common with big Olympics, and I think Curling is the closest we can get. There are websites that provide simulations of a curling game.
