Notice: RP Cutoff will be an hour or two later than usual tonight. Extra time to get those Ro12 RPs in.

Also, my above request for a 3rd party scorinator still stands.

A well-deserved congratulations to Cosumar for finally winning the WLC after coming so close at least two or three times. Hats off to you and your Dragons! :clap:

by **Jeckland** » Sat Dec 20, 2014 12:31 am

Yes, congratulations Cosumar! I wish I'd have RPed more, but RL sucks.

Anyway, Have Some Ranks!

Couple of notes. First, I'm using the 4-2-1 weighting system I said I would this time. Second, Ro12 matches were not counted, as not all teams partook.

To Star United States: Where is the RP permissions box used for the tourney?

Hey! I have edited in an example of one into the OP of the RP/Results thread.
However, here it is:

Example RP permissions box.

If my opponent RPs first, he/she may:
===================================
Chose my goal scorers: Yes/No
Godmod scoring events: Yes/No
Suspended my players: Yes/No
Godmod suspension events: Yes/No
Godmod other events: Yes/No
===================================

What's "Pots" again?

Splitting up the teams by rank points. Pot 1 is the highest ranked teams, Pot 2 the next highest, etc. When drawing the groups, one team from each pot is selected to make them fair. But beyond that, they're not important.

What are rank points? How do you determine which team has the highest rank point? Based on previous World Lacrosse tournaments?

Yes, it's all based on previous World Lacrosse tournaments.

I have 0 since this is my first one.

Cosumar is ranked #1 since he won the last one.

Oh all right, thanks for the information.

Correction: Since he has posted a roster, RPed and done well in the previous ones. A tournament win or runner up finish just boosts it up.

I didn't even realize how lucky I got with the Pot placement. Being one of those two teams that were in a pot with a bunch of ranked teams? Good work Star

Alphabetical order ally. :lol:

Good luck, you won't need it but yet again, just for the sake of the tournament.

My first opponent didn't submit a roster. I have referred to generic terms (by nation name). What do I do?

Don't make up any information, just use general terms, as you said. Focus more on your own team if that helps.

How'd you lot do in your first game? I tied

Somehow, I've lost to San Jose Guayabal

Ugh, it won't do to have the defending champs out in the group stage!

Lest Cosumar become the next Spain, and SJG the next Netherlands.

With a draw and a win in my first-ever tournament in any sport, my nation is the underdog story of the tournament

by **Kaboomlandia** » Wed Apr 08, 2015 11:10 am

Any upsets to be seen besides mine?

You probably haven't seen my run World Bowl 23. First Match and I won 7th placed in the world, Quebec. I have also been 4th placed in mky first Maple Leaf Bowl which was Maple Leaf Bowl 4. Good times, good times.

AAGGH. Finished 3rd in Group C. I lost to WG, and RamsGates lost to Mytannion. :evil:

Sorry, mate. If the group stage was a few games longer, like a double round-robin, maybe you would've been able to build up enough RP bonus. Better luck in WLC 22!

Well, all I had to do was get a single point against West Guiana, OR for Mytannion to tie or lose, and I'd be in the playoffs. Do those things happen? NO!

OOC: I'll be back for WLC 22.
