Welcome to the Brolympic Games! The august Brolympic Committee has released the competition's tentative inaugural schedule, and it promises to test each competitor's every faculty (except for those related to, like, physically moving around). Ten events will challenge our brave "athletes", with each competitor's top eight scores contributing to their final rank (which means that you can just skip up to two events at no penalty if you so choose). And of course, throughout the event the Brolympic Coverage Team will ensure that no triumph goes uncelebrated and also that every embarrassing mistake will be enshrined forever on the Internet. Let's take a look at the schedule:
Week 1 (Indie Week):

- Super Meat Boy Individual Competition (Worlds 1 and 2)

Two secret events selected by the Brolympic Secret Committee will be inflicted on competitors in our final play period. They're so secret that not even I know what they are!
The committee (which is to say me) will be accepting competitor applications and comments and suggestions about the tournament format until Saturday morning, at which point week 1 will begin, barring any unforeseen issues. Hit me up on Skype or Steam!
