It's been discussed. The last few cycles we haven't opened signups until mid March.

I'd like to say I'm available to scorinate a conference. NSCAA 8 stated signups in March 1, 2017. BTW, who is in charge of NSCAA Basketball nation? It CTE'd.

Huh, must've been thinking of when the tournament actually started. As far as the nation is concerned, I believe Ceni is still in charge of that.

If it's not a problem with anyone else, I am willing to at least start the sign up thread, even though I can't scorinate.

He specified that he would open signups this weekend since he'd be less busy.

Perfect, can't wait!

Would it be a problem to create IC-ly ficticious schools from other nations for an equally ficticious school from my nation to allegedly play in a Plainfield Teacher's College style hoax I RP?

I'll go one better: I will "schedule" your school against a few of mine. Let me know (here or TG) and I'll make the list.

Signups for the 10th NSCAA Basketball Tournament have been opened.

This is a little earlier then it has been the last few years, but it should get the tournament more in line with the NCAA tournament.

I don't believe there is an official rule against it, but it would be preferred by the prospective hosts if you kept it to one nation.

There was an edition of NSCAA where I entered 2 schools from Saintland and 6 from Free Republics, all treated as the same nation OOCly, so its definitely been done in the past. There is the risk though that a host might erroneously not count your bonus for both nations.

Thats basically what I would be doing. All 8 teams would be ranked in Xannerias post as one OOC entity where as they would be ICly a same entry.

These would be edited into my main countries sign up to avoid that.

If this is what you want to do, then it's fine. There's nothing inherently wrong with it. Not what I would do, but I do appreciate that you kept to the eight school limit, combined.

If you only want four (or any number fewer then eight) schools to participate that is perfectly acceptable. Let me know if that is your preference.
Note that each school does not have to individually roleplayed, so even if you were to RP about one school exclusively, the RP bonus is applied to all your schools.

sorry I should've put that here. Not thinking. Just four for now.

We are in need of one more host. Nine conferences have been accounted for.
I have given myself, Valanora, Cassadaigua, and Drawkland each two conferences and Lisander the requested one.

Giving one of the nations that have two conferences to scorinate a third conference means they cannot avoid scorinating a conference with one of their schools in it.

If the only drawback to starting basketball is the fact that I'm scorinating only one conference, then there's no drawback. I decided to try only one because I was not too confident that I would be accepted. But if there is one left, yes, I can handle two.

Great! Then we will be all set. Putting the conferences together now.

Due to my inability to finish my rosters in my own deadline, I'm postponing Newlands and United 15 first cutoff for tomorrow, in the same time.

Enjoy the overtime to finish your rosters.

Cheers,
Lisander.

Since I missed both the first scorination and then yesterday's with RL issues, I'll be doing a triple scorination tomorrow to catch up and be on the same schedule with the rest of the hosts. As this is a lot of MDs done at once, any RPs done in this window will be multiplied by four times.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this earlier, but I think you forgot to paste the MD 16 results for the Sky Blue Conference, Newmanistan.

That's now been fixed, thanks. Now time for some more scores!

sorry guys, been tied up the last few nights with home improvements and other commitments. Will be scorinating to catch up on the MDs I missed momentarily, and scorinate tonight's normal set of matches as normal.

are we gonna get Lisander's conferences caught up?
