There is an unfair ranking system.

In the 2008 Beijing Olympics rankings are determined by the amount of total medals a country has. Well I’m thinking this isn’t fair. Lets say country A had 10 bronze and country B had 9 gold. Is it fair to call country A better than country B? 

I thought of an idea that rankings should be determined by not only the number of medals, but with the amount of each type of medal and the ratio to the total.

If this is too complicated, why not just set up different rankings suck as overall as in total medals, or most gold, and even most improved country. This would shine spot light not only on the professional olympic countries but the smaller developing countries too.
