Community football is the result of a two-and-a-half year old discussion about inventing an original sport for the world of NationStates. While some events were held in those days, no official world championship was held as the participants continued to evolve a rules set. Time moved on, people have come and gone. The main rules page disappeared into Internet nothingness, not even the Wayback Machine was able to help. But rules have been reconstructed and several nations have signed on, so let's bring this sport back into the world.
Community Football is a unique sport invented here. Rules are in the next post.
This is not a soccer or American football event!
Come, be a part of history! You can sign up by posting your interest below.
If you're inclined to host, we're also open to host bids. Post them here too. There are two scorinators in existence, an xkoranate sport file (that needs to be installed; it's not part of the download) and a Google Doc (link in my sig). I'll post a host bid so we're sure to have one, but others are welcome.
Finally, I called this the Global Whatsit to stimulate conversation. We could have a straightforward World Cup or world championship. Or, in the spirit of this invented game we can invent a new title. Community Plate? Global Shield? Planetary Bowl? Let your imagination go, and we can vote on something.
