Sorry, that's us too. It's not a dib, it's just sheer objective fact.

Ardchoille already warned you about spamming NS Sports threads and gave you a VERY generous 3 day ban. I too have already warned you about spamming, but you haven't listened. Posting around a ban is explicitly against the rules. Your nation is banned for a week. I'm extending that to Wikipedia again 2 so it is also banned for a week, since 3 days wasn't enough.

Ardchoille wrote:Wikipedia again 2, banned for three days for spamming sports threads.

You lost a nation for doing this, Kryozerkia warned your latest nation just a page ago, but you're still doing it. So you're banned, again. Think about what the next step will be.

Openly posting around a ban AFTER having it explicitly spell out the problem is your one-way ticket to a perma-ban. Enjoy your perma-ban.

Sign-ups updated to Ronaldinho2, 84 nations signed up. 12 of those are puppets and 14 of have signed up for the Baptism of Fire.

San Frasco, The United Kingdom of Britain, Gaytania and EvilDarkMagicians are all eligible for the Baptism of Fire, but have not signed up to that, yet.

Wikipedia again 2, Nueva Elmo Mundo (illegal puppet) and NSCWC Signups (illegal PARODDISTRY FAIL puppet) are not included, thanks to their collective permanent forum ban.

There are three bids for the Baptism of Fire, detailed in the OP, that EWCC members may vote on until Friday this week. Votes to Starblaydia, please. Thankyou.
The poster of this message is probably Ko-oren or Banija as NSWC Signups is owned and operated by the World Cup Committee, bringing you the finest quality in sign-up threads for NationStates' premier football tournament since 2005.

It doesn't matter what nation you use to sign up here, as long as you only sign up one, as it's your first cup. In later cups you can add another nation if you want, but it has to be noted as a puppet of your original nation.

As a user, you are only allowed a maximum of two nations entered in the World Cup at any one time, for various reasons including: fairness on others, RPing overload and time constraints.

You are only allowed, however, a second nation (known as a puppet) after you have participated in a World Cup cycle. This is because your 'Main' nation is supposed to be stronger, better, higher ranked, etc, than your 'puppet' nation.

Your Main and Puppet nation can be intrinsically linked, RP-wise, in that the puppet is a breakaway or independent region of the main nation (this is common). They can also be completely separate (and ICly unknowing of each other), which allows a totally different style, culture, background etc, to explore either a different style of nation or to allow you to go nuts with something far more (or less) extreme than your main.

As long as we're aware that one nation is a puppet of another (remember if you are signing up for the first time for WC48, you may only sign a puppet up aswell in WC49), then that's all is required. We have got fairly good at spotting undeclared puppets, however, and we have got forum and game moderators to check on this for us in the past.

The Community of Howling Scanias wishes to sign up to WC48 and BoF. National Team coach Neil Smith was asked about his teams chances in these tournaments, "as a new nation, we have almost no hope of winning a game, I am just hoping that one or two opposition teams underestimate us or go easy on us and we might be able to steal a win."

The United States of Kinstantia wishes to enter the WC48, as well as the Baptism of Fire. We are new to the international sports scene and look forward to losing every game.
It's as if someone thought, "What if we took Baywatch, mixed it with Star Trek, and then blended in a frat party?" That's Kinstantia, in a nutshell.
This nation may or may not reflect my real life views. Furthermore, there's a lot of comic relief intended here, so if it seems a bit silly, you know why.

Almost forgot to sign up.

Almost.

We're in.
WINNER of the 1st International Basketball Championships, 7th Di Bradini Cup, & the 4th World Lacrosse Championships!
RUNNERUP in Baptism of Fire 30 and World Baseball Classic 10.
HOST of World Bowl 6, International Basketball Championships 6, and Baptism of Iron 6. (Hosting a 6th version of something? Call us.) Also, World Baseball Classic 12 and World Lacrosse Championships 3.
Qualified for World Cups 49-52.

All arrogant, stuck-up, conceded or whatever comments I make in roleplay are always in-character and should not be interpreted as also being the out-of-character attitude of the person controlling the nation. My nation is my attempt to mock people I have to deal with often at work.
