Can athletes compete in more than one sport, or are you limited to only one?
Athletes can compete in as many sports as they like - there is no limit.
Do the athletes pick which sports to compete, or do the MODS pick for us based on our groups/countries?
Can athletes also be spectators for other events that they are not competing in? In order to cheer on other members and teammates?

A thread will be created with a list of sports and the recommended number of participants from each country. Athletes can sign up for as many or as few of these sports as they want, and you can exceed, or not even meet, the recommended number of athletes per sport.

Athletes can be spectators. The sole difference between athletes and spectators is that athletes have the ability, if they so choose, to compete in the various sports/
When you say that we have 24 hours in a competition what do you mean? I can't figure out the time frame:/
I agree with Janessa! So confused right now lol
It means that you have 24 hours from the moment that was posted to send in or submit your answer.
Are the Olympics still going on? Just haven't heard much, but then I am sure everyone is just busy with school and life!
Yes, a few of the sports are still taking place!
