For Computers:
As you probs know, my olympic scoreboard for monitors was featured on reddit thanks to dan200! ;)/>. This gave me motivation to make one that fits on a computer screen. It also has scrolling!

For monitors:
Hello there! I was bored one night so I decided to make an Olympic games scoreboard. It displays the top number of countries you specify (In the header of the program as noObjects. By default it's set to 25, perfect for a 5 tall monitor). Yes, this is the IRL Olympic games I'm talking about. It downloads the information from: http://www.london201...ls/medal-count/
and it updates every 5 mins. Feel free to use and modify my program, however please give me credit for it :P/>



Also, here's a picture of it working and can be found on this server right out of spawn
ccnet.ddns.me:25564

Spoiler


IMPORTANT INFO:
THE MONITOR VERSION CAN ONLY BE USED ON A 8 WIDE MONITOR. BOTH REQUIRES THE HTTP API.
The side of the monitor can ofc be configured at the header of the program
The number of top countries shown can be modified in the header of the program (noObjects) <-- Monitors only

Constructive criticism and feedback are highly appreciated. Also please post any flaws/bugs/problems you find.

Enjoy!

You need to enable the http api in the config. If it's a server, the owner needs to enable it.
