Dozens of medals but to be handed out in Monitor and Subject — the place the USA are anticipated to have an enormous video games, however already the staff has a reasonably commanding lead in at the very least one rating system.

In the meantime complete medals simply amasses gold, silver and bronze into one complete depend — whatever the shade of these medals.
Debate rages over which is the correct option to depend the medals, however listed below are the top-20 in every depend.
