Rugby (Domestic, League & Union) OOC discussion thread.

Excuse me guys, if we are in the second cuttof and I post my RP of the cuttof 1, it would be valid?

Yes. Generally speaking, an RP is an RP. If its completely unrelated to the event, some hosts will award a lower score for it while others (including myself) do not consider that a factor in determining a score. If you RP about a previous day, you should be fine regardless.

Alright, thanks.

[Hutanjia]

I have just posted my rosters for both NE and Hutanjia. Obviously, right? Again, my deep apologies for the lack of RP as our sole PC bit the dust. I am currently on a library computer to catch up on my NS. Hoping to have a new hard drive in operation by the end of this week, and also to get my Seasogs and IRLCC scoring taken care of. Thanks for your patience, those in my groups.
Good luck to all and good work so far!

[New Sideburn]

Due to a tightly packed schedule, today's RLWC quarter-final match (and the matches after it) are going to be pushed back a day. Sorry for the inconvenience. (I've edited the OP to match, so those dates are now accurate)

[Neu Engollon]

Thanks for the extra time on the RPs yesterday, New Sideburn.

EDIT: Hooray! Three cheers for the Sir. "Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!"
Awesome job on the RLWC, New Sideburn. Very classy and well run. Much thanks.
Thank you to all my competitors who RP'd. You made this very fun. Congrats to Uitbregen on silver!
I'm very happy.
I hope one day that rugby (all codes) is as popular, if not more so, on NSS as soccer/association football is now. Keep dreaming, right?


Sidenote: My hard drive crashed and I lost a lot of info I had saved in text docs. Unable to find the backup flash drive at the moment, if it even exists. For those of you that did RU trades with me a while back, if you have any info on Neu Engollian players playing in your domestic leagues and could TG me, that would be great. I lost all their names. Thanks! I will search 'sent' TG in the meantime, to see what I can dig up there.

[Uitbregen]

I'm terribly sorry at my disdainful effort in the competition. I just got back into RPing football, and my attention to the competition went to zero. I deserved to get nowhere near where I did, and I fully congratulate Hutanjia for winning, and not making me feel super awkward.

Thanks for the support - it means a lot for someone in their first hosting role. I can't see myself being a regular host in the future, but it's good to know I can at least do the job when the need arises.

You done good. Hopefully you get the itch to host again soon.
I still plan on putting up closing RPs soon this week.

Congrats to the Dwile Jerseys and Apox on the Seasogs!

I posted a couple of pages back about a potential non-NSRB 7s tournament. I'd like to do that, but I'm wondering what would get the most interest/RP, an invitational tournament comprising the current top 8-16 union nations, or an open tournament, probably capped at 24 nations (if we get that many). I was thinking it would be nice as a prelude to the next RUWC, whenever that is.

You might have an issue with the top nations involved in other tournaments and RL stuff, but that's always the case, right?
I would open it up to try and gain some new interest in rugby, in general. Sevens is not a popular code here, but as a fun tournament, you should be able to get a decent turnout, but only if it's open to newcomers.

[Xadowia]

I apologize for posting questions in the Domestic Rugby Thread: I am really interested to take part in the Rugby Union simulations here, I am about to start my Championship soon.

BTW I received the needed information from Polar Islandstates whom I thank a lot, and will start showing my Union Championship in the Domestic Rugby Thread soon.

I will keep an eye on this thread for more information, and read it all...
:-)

Xadowia!

[Xadowia]

Hallo everyody: I have started the first Xadowian Rugby Union Championship.
If you are interested have a look and let me know what do you think, any advice for improvement will be welcome!

Awesome. Dig the logo for your union and the thread is well put together. You're well on your way, Xadowia. Nice work!

[Xadowia]

Thanks Neu Engollon,
the logo is derived from our state coat of arms.
You can have a look to our national symbols in the Xadowian Factbook

RWC 22 Sign up:

In.

*Hopes Rhodesiah doesn't show up*

After all that went down in RWC 21, that is doubtful, but never say never.
Has Rhodesiah been on NS at all?

You beat me to it. I was going to do that before I got distracted by some RL stuff. Interesting. Still, I'm not going to consider him gone until sign ups are closed. Bigger surprises have happened on NS Sports.

*Her.

And going by her FB, she's been pretty preoccupied with RL stuffs.

My apologies. 'Her'. Well, I hope that things go her way and get cleared up, whatever she is dealing with.

[The Fair Republic]

Derp. Should be fixed now
