ITT: Chicken announces Temp Olympics Board. No timetable for its release

Let's be honest, this event with it's full complement of sports is going to dominate the board during it's run. I think a temporary board devoted to this would allow for increased discussion of minor sports that no one usually cares about except every 4 years. In game threads could be created for literally every event.
In 2008, there were many complaints about results being posted and threads spoiling the events for people who were watching recordings instead of live feeds. An Olympics board could help to resolve this issue.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.

The difference is that people would post on the MSB, wanting to discuss things unrelated to the Olympics, or see what sports news had occurred, you know their usual posting routine. However sometimes they would see threads that would spoil the olympic results. Some argued that they just shouldn't visit the MSB if they didn't want to accidentally have the results spoiled.
With the addition of an Olympic board, they now have the option to avoid the spoiler results and still have the opportunity to post on the MSB and discuss other sporting news. This is especially important with football right around the corner. If you are watching delayed coverage, avoid the Olympic board. Simple enough.

What is the timeframe?
What with the swimming, gymnastics, and track and field trials already starting and with the Basketball have its warmup games I think there is an audience for it already.
