Well, I'm out. Congratulations to PIS and Farf for advancing out of Group F, and I wish you the best of luck in the knockout rounds. Thanks to Buyan for including a couple Lions in your Top 70, and thank you to Equestrian States and SJG for putting on a wonderful tournament. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and hope to again make the WC proper in the next cycle.

Commiserations, you sure put up a good fight. Really tight group.

by **Polar Islandstates** » Wed Dec 31, 2014 10:37 am

Aye, I basically have you to thank for making it possible for me to get out of that group with your win over Valladares. Great group to be a part of, even from my semi-absent distance.

Regarding to what EQS posted yesterday on the results as a host note, I hereby declare faithfully that the results posted by he are the original scores who Xkoranate produced in my scorination time. Due to a call to leave computer and getting ready to a long trip, I gave the scores to EQS in order to post the results. Also I wanted to wish to all of you a happy 2015 (Sorry, I will not be with a good Internet access this couple of days because I'm doing some hiking with friends and parents on Honduras)

Cheers!

Remember when i talked about Guayabanazzo or G-Fatidic-Day?

hard lose for Buyan,but despite the lose,you can continue hard in other World Cups =D

by **The Saint James Islands** » Wed Dec 31, 2014 10:46 pm

Anyway, a joyful arbitrary year-reboot day to everyone from North Carolina!

Ignore the fact that I'm 45 minutes late, though...

Just as a reminder for any those randomly enthusiastic youth programmes around at the moment, the sign-ups for the 33rd Di Bradini Cup, otherwise known as the 54th Under-21 World Cup, will open whenever Starblaydia are knocked out of the Cup of Harmony.

I've put a thread in moderation about the possibility of this subforum getting a new mod, which can be found here. If you have any opinions on this, please post them there.

Well, Group F in the CoH had a lot of goals

It seems every time I play in the CoH, I get through to the Ro16 scoring fewer and fewer goals.

*awkward cough*
The question now is, do I make the player you voted #1 score the goal that knocks you out...?

It'd certainly show members of the Buyan public that the list was correct...

*catches up with the World Cup*

Audioslavia vs Polar Islandstates, eh?

I'm definitely cancelling a plan for tonight and RPing for this one..

You know when you're a NSSporter when you cancel plans just to RP.

You make plans in the first place? Psssh, amateurs.

by **Polar Islandstates** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 12:00 pm

Aye... If I'd beaten anyone else 1-0 at this stage I'd probably hold back for fear of going OTT and godmodding Kolehmainen at the last minute, thus ruining the 'just-about-realistic' thing. But I kindof feel like my hands are tied now...

And as for you Audio, well, do we have anything but classic encounters upon which to build? Bring it on, oh bullish one.

by **Osarius** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 12:31 pm

Osarius World Cup quarter final possible outcomes:
1. Lose to Pasarga (again) and bow out early
2. Win, and lose to PIS (again) because PIS always beats you
3. Win, and lose (another) semi final to Audio, because it's a semi final
4. Win, and win the semi fin- lol who are we kidding?

by **Red Blackiland** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 12:53 pm

Will be great to see Felix and your 'Colombian lovers' in semi-finals... =P

by **Valanora** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 12:53 pm

I for one am enjoying the AO versus Rushmore feel of the EQS half of the bracket.

by **Chiata** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 1:27 pm

If Chiata and Barunia win their Ro16 matches, it will be the Suns vs. the Suns.

A very hot match indeed.

Givne that Schia has now CTEd, and failed to update the ranks pre WC/CoH, might it be time to look for a new rankings person?
