From the desk of Rory Mason, President, Gloriax
GRADE 1 CLASSIFICATION
Lord Greg
Dictator
Gregoryisgodistan,
The word ‘almighty’ is, as you can see, missing from the above salutation. You most definitely know the reason. But, I shall not go into controversies, and go straight into the matter at hand.
As the world knows, and we know too – we have witnessed one of the bloodiest wars ever fought – turning the frontier province of District 26 into a nuclear wasteland. Considering my soldiers’ previous incursions into the GGS area, definitely prove to you (I hope), that we are able enough to attack the area again, and annex it to our fair nation. I won’t be a crime to the civilians, even – as they are, evidently, all dead. Thus, it is not a crime to our eyes. And we are totally gearing towards doing that. If we can invade your so called ‘holy’ nation, and then make you, the ‘almighty’ leader himself drop nuclear bombs in you own nation, I hope you can well imagine that we, are no less. We are enough to cause you lots of trouble in the future. And if you think we’re ones who will sit back, and let things happen, you, Sir, are wrong.
We, therefore, are going to go forward with a proposal. It is fair, to us – considering the more number of casualties and deaths we have suffered. You,
1) Grant us half of the area of District 26
We shall NOT invade the district if you shall choose to do this peacefully. But if not, brace yourself.
2) Remove our name from your enemy list
We never wanted to make enemies, of yours. We wanted a long-lasting peaceful friendship – but your antics in Coconutstan (I shall use that word as the proper name of the nation – no matter how much you ban people from using that ‘forbidden’ word) forced us to make enemies of you. Remove us from the enemy list, and accept the other offer – you shall never find a friend as loyal as us.
A friend you have made an enemy of,
Rory Mason,
President,
Gloriax

#4 Teur SmuemundPosition – DFM
Club – Captile SC Spurs
Club Location Captile, Bondporter
Crest/Logo –
Teur is an outspoken defensive mid for the Hops and plays his club ball for the Spurs of Captile SC. I wouldn’t say he is outspoken in the sense of pushing his opinions on his teammates, he just lets everyone know what he is thinking about everything they do; drills, scrimmages, games, he has a comment for every situation. Even though he is outspoken he takes direction very well and almost all of his coaches love having him on their squad. This past season was his first with the Spurs after signing a new contract with them and parting ways with his long time club Turtles of Tearrain FC. His coaches also love the fact that he is very position oriented and is a great holding midfielder because of this and almost never being out of position. The one thing they do wish he did better was transition forward to help in the attack because sometimes he leaves too big of a gap between himself and the attacking mids.
Teur just finished up a degree in finance this past off-season which he took up somewhat as a joke from his teammates because he was always blowing his money on needless objects and filling his bachelor pad with all kinds of electronics and man toys. He would tell them he saves more than half of his salary form playing and the rest is just fluff to be used however he felt at that moment, so he took the advanced finance degree course through a local university just to prove he know what he was doing with his money. He plans to become some kind of financial planner or personal financial consultant once his playing days are over but in the meantime he has vowed to help is teammates do a better job with their money.#14 Leuld BiaddanPosition – DFM
Club – Timbers of Malt SC
Club Location – Coppendo, Copperwies
Crest/Logo –
Leuld started his playing days in the Timbers youth squad because his parents lived just a block from their training facility and had been long standing fans of the team. Around his 18th birthday he got his first call up to the senior squad and was soon starting for them. He eventually wound up at Raid FC Warriors but only lasted one season with them before returning to the Timbers, he expects to finish his career with them. Playing wise he is smart and stays in good defensive or supporting positions when the team is defending and attacking. He will switch positions with anyone on the field if the opportunity or situation develops where he is needed to rotate into a new role. This plays well into the Hops style of play and is a major reason Coach Schmidt called him to be part of this team.
Leuld is divorced and lives in a small apartment near the Timbers training facility and sees his two children every other weekend. He feels his ex-wife is to blame for their messy divorce and the reason he only gets to see his kids twice a month, after all she was the one cheating on him. He does have a small dog to keep him company, which his teammates give him a hard time because of the size of his dog (toy poodle). This is mostly because he is a decent size man standing at 1.98 m (6’6”) tall and the dog is only near 6” tall. He rolls with it and doesn’t let them get to him and often jokes right along with them about it.#22 Eisa LoostinPosition – AM (Right)
Club – FC Darkton Serpents
Club Location – Darkton, Dunklevine
Crest/Logo –
Eisa is a wonderful right mid, is strong with both feet, and can hit nearly any target with a cross from the corner of the pitch. He is often confused with Lecho Loontas at first glance of the roster because their last names are so close in spelling, Loontin v. Loontas, but he gracefully corrects anyone who says it the wrong way and never gets cross with them. He can sometimes be a coaches nightmare because he likes to joke and fool around, a lot. His fellow players like this about him but it often finds him running a few extra laps at the end of practice sessions. For the Serpents he will sometimes play the center attacking mid positions if they play in something other than the 4-2-3-1, which the coach of the Serpents tends to mix positions and will often use a new tactical formation for each game. The players on that team adapt to it well and it often catches opponents by surprise.
When not with the Serpents or the Hops he is still attending University trying to get his degree in electrical engineering so he has something, in his words, “Fun to do when not playing”. Not sure to many people would agree with him on that one, but it is something to fall back on and this is despite his very nice new contract with the Serpents. Eisa is also considered by many to be the best looking player on the team, well probably right up there with Droimpol, and yes ladies he still is single.#10 Pheir Droimpol – CaptainPosition – AM (Center)
Club – Hops of Bayern FC
Club Location – Bayern, Hefebayern
Crest/Logo –
Pheir is probably the best player to come out of HopNation, ever. He is prolific with both feet, a master of ball control, a precision passer, and has a shot rivaled only by Schytaing. He is also a coach’s dream because he only needs to hear something once and he will have it mastered in mere minutes. This is his first time being a captain and was approached just after the initial training camp with the Hops by Coach Schmidt to take over this role. His teammates fully support him in this role and even though Oeny wasn’t entirely happy with it being taken from him he knew it was going to a deserving player. Phiers days at Bayern FC started when he was only 4 and he progressed through their youth divisions quickly. By the time he was 8 years old he was playing with the u13 squad and performing better than most of them. On his 14th birthday he was called up to play with the U21 side and did very well, although he saw limited playing time because of his small stature at the time he did score a couple goals as a substitute for that team in one of their tournaments. He started playing for the National team at the age of 16 and has been with them ever since.
Droimpol started seeing Dr. Jill Hansen just a year ago and their relationship is going very well. I know this is heart breaking too many women out there because Pheir is the best looking player on the team and he has received a number of proposals while playing or just after a game finishes by women that can’t control themselves and rush onto the pitch. He currently lives in his very nice one bedroom apartment but is house hunting, and rumor has it he has been looking for a family style home with Jill so we’ll be watching to see what develops there.[u\#30 Ike Myer[/u]Position – AM (Left)
Club – Ghilies of Guile FC
Club Location – Guile, Hefebayern
Crest/Logo –
Ike is the second oldest player on the Hops roster and there has been some rumors floating around that he might be retiring after this cycle, but I’m not so sure he will after all he has been playing very well. His club, the Ghilies, have made it to two straight HCL appearances and mainly because of his help on the pitch. He is a great passer and finds openings in team’s defenses when others cannot. He can also play striker, but prefers the outside mid positions more than anything.
Ike is married with three kids and they live on a very nice property that is situated in upper Guile. His whole life has been football and he’s told me in the past he wouldn’t mind coaching at some level once he is done playing.
Next we’ll meet our starting forward and perhaps a couple reserve players.
Brew On! Brew Well Hoptonians!

We have spoken out against intolerance and oppression throughout the world. We have spoken out when no one else has dared to speak out. We have spoken out when we knew we would be persecuted for speaking out. We are speaking out agains Saintland and the former Free Republics for what they are doing to this world, regardless of the consequences. If we may go to some person's hell for speaking out against that person's heaven, then so be it. We will all be in hell anyway, for if we speak out against one religion, we will go to that religion's hell; and if we change our minds and speak out against another person's religion, we will go to that religion's hell. If we believe in one religion, we will go to all other religions' hells; if we believe in another, we will be going to hell nonetheless. Whatever religion we believe in, we will be going to hell because we do not believe in some other person's religion. That is true with our displeasure with the actions of the Church of Saintland. If we listen to any one religion, we will be deceiving ourselves. No one religion can tell us what to believe. We must choose what to believe ourselves, and only we have that choice. A patriarch in Saintland or the former Free Republics cannot tell us what to believe, the same as we cannot tell them what to believe. If we told them that they must believe in tolerance, they must believe in equality, they must believe in freedom of religion, then we would be no better than they are. We can only tell them the reasons why we believe what we do. In our heads, there is that nagging little voice called our conscience. Our conscience tells us that whenever a group is persecuted for what it believes or does not believe, it is wrong. It is wrong because all men have a freedom of choice and a freedom of belief. Those freedoms are immutable. No outside force can choose for you what you must believe. What the Church of Saintland is telling us is that you must believe what we believe. All of their pronouncements have told us that. They have told us that "you will only find [happiness and contentment] in the One True Church." They have told us that anyone who opposes their teachings is "selling snake oil in order to corrupt your soil." They have told us that they are the only solution to this world's problems. When you walk the streets of Nephara, when you walk the streets of the Royal Kingdom of Quebec, when you walk the streets of Audiooslavia, you will find people who are happy and content who do not believe in the dogma of the Church of Saintland. You will find people who live their lives peacefully and prosperously. You will find people who are Buddhist, who are Protestant, who are Catholic, who have happy lives. You will find people who believe in many gods, one god, or no gods who are happy. When you walk the streets of Saintland and the Free Republics, too, you will find people who are happy with the so-called "True Church". But you will also find people who are not happy because of the direction their country is taking. You will find people who do not believe in your strict dogma and you will find people who oppose the policies of thheir government. Yet they are not allowed to tell the people who supposedly represent them that - because the people who represent them do not have tolerance. They will claim they have tolerance, surely, but they will only tolerate those who agree with them. They claim they support religious liberty, but we challenge them to find one piece of evidence that supports that. Their own pronouncements have told us that they do not support religious liberty - they will proclaim, and have proclaimed, that believers in any religion except their own will go to hell. Well, then we will go to hell, for we do not believe in their creed, and we will not believe in their creed. If the True Church appeals to you, then we enourage you to join it, but if the True Church does not appeal to you, then do not join it! Only you can make that choice. We cannot make that choice for you. Reino Kulseth cannot make that choice for you. Sister Maria Polus cannot make that choice for you. Religion is between you and your God, and we encourage you to find your God, whoever he or she may be. We might not like the choice you have made - but we will fight to the death for your right to make that choice. For light, for knowledge, for action!
