If you need to bump it up to 28 nations, I can have Senria participate, but I'd prefer having a unique person take that spot.

If we reach 27 (no more or less) by Saturday, I suppose you can have Senria participate.

But if it stays at 26, I will have to nerf Kaona (as much as it makes me sad) and Livancia.

After wasting nearly two hours trying to get this to work, I have succeeded in getting the IC thread up.

I took Qianrong's offer of bumping the total number of participants up to 32 nations. So sign-ups are now officially closed.

Houston, we got a problem - Luz used an incorrect fixture formula for the Round of 16, meaning that currently teams that played each other in the group stages can play each other again in the Quarter Finals (e.g. Luziyca and Ainin, WC and Montecara). Per standard football convention, the only way teams from the same group can meet each other again is at the final.

I propose we use the correct fixture formula for 32 team tournaments, namely this.

This means that the following fixtures would occur at the Round of 16, erasing any errors/inconsistencies that may arise:

Luziyca vs. Arkiasis
Toksan vs. Vyvland
Kaona-Phikam vs. Tinzhan
Montecara vs. Ocelot Isles
Fjalland vs. Ainin
Senria vs. Pisdara
Daecon vs. Livancia
Lyonsland vs. West Cedarbrook

Very well.

It shall be corrected. Apologies to all who have been inconvenienced by this arrangement.
