Rugby (Domestic, League & Union) OOC discussion thread.

[Liventia]

I would like to be a League VP.

Considering you haven't taken part in a Rugby League World Cup before, I can't see that happening.

[Aels]

As the last stand-in RLWC hosts, Aels will offer to stand for election as League VP of the NSRB.

[Free South Califas]

Merely for the sake of competition, put me down in the sevens category. Nobody likes an uncontested election

I like your style, CC.

[Sorthern Northland]

Election returns for the Executive Council of the NS Rugby Board

League vice-president/NSRB President:
Green Jello Salad - 1
Saugeais - 0
Filopines - 0
Aels - 2

Sevens vice-president/NSRB 1st VP
Western Cuba - 3
Civil Citizenry - 0

Union vice-president/NSRB 2nd VP
Saugeais - 3
The Kiaser Colonies - 0

Aels therefore is the League vice-president, Western Cuba the Sevens VP and Saugeais the Union VP. Aels takes the role of President of the NSRB, with Western Cuba as his first VP and Saugeais the second VP. The next order of business I believe is the Sevens World Cup.

[Western cuba]

I think now would be a good time to mention that I will gone from the 7th to the 14th of July next month.

[Saugeais]

I think now would be a good time to mention that I will gone from the 7th to the 14th of July next month.

You can still start the signups, though.

Actually I think since Aels is NSRB president that is his job. As I am pretty sure it is the responsibility of the NSRB President to start the sign ups for the League, Union, and Sevens world cups.

[The Kiaser Colonies]

no sevens is your job. you open i think

[Ancharmunn]

The President of the NSRB opens signup threads for the three World Cups and oversees selection of their hosts, organises the election of Section Vice Presidents as called for above, organises votes on properly proposed amendments to this document as stated below, and chairs the Executive Council for the resolution of emergencies.

The Vice Presidents of the NSRB take up the duties of the President in sequence, First then Second, when that officer becomes temporarily or permanently unable or unwilling to perform the above duties.

As President the duty falls to Aels to open sign-ups and organise the selection of hosts for the next four tournaments to fall under the NSRB umbrella. He may wish to delegate such an activity to the VPs if he wishes, or should he not do it for a while the 1st and then 2nd VP may do so instead.

[Darmen]

When can we expect updated Rankings for the Seasogs?

[Western cuba]

Question, since Aels gave me permission to open up sign ups for R7WC II, should I use my account or the NS Rugby Executive Council one?

If you can access the Executive Council account, use it. Your own account is fine, we all know that you're the Sevens VP and acting in that capacity (presumably with permission).

[Western cuba]

R7WC II signups are now open, also I have revised the signature of the Executive Council account so that it meets the standards of the current council. Link is below.

[Darmen]

A vote will be held by the nations who signed up to determine the host of R7WC II.

I believe only members of the NSRB may vote, but I may be mistaken.

Your correct, the NSRB as a whole selects the host of the Union, League, and Sevens world cups. The change will be made right away.

[The Kiaser Colonies]

I'd like to thank PIS for holding yet another great tournament. And thanks to everyone who competed for making this happen.

Also, Kulverint began this page during the last edition, here's an updated R7WC nswiki page

There is also one for the knock out stages of R7WC 1 here.

forever in your debt kul. forever.

[Cyborg Holland]

Are we looking @ a potential Union WC in the near future?

[Varijnland]

Why was I not informed of an NS rugby society?

[Cyborg Holland]

Why was I not informed of an NS rugby society?

Because there's a massive conspiracy against you on NS to keep you away from anything fun.

Nah. It's just is hasn't been up recently.

[Aels]

Are we looking @ a potential Union WC in the near future?

I will leave it to the NSRB Union president, Saugeais, to make that decision, although my personal opinion is that it may be wise to avoid the World Cup qualifiers.

[Saugeais]

The last Rugby Union WC was back in January, so I think we are overdue for that. But as Aels said, we'd be competing with the WC qualifiers, as well as the World Baseball Classic that I'll be opening signups to soon. Though rugby isn't the most popular sport on here and not one for intense RPs from its participants, so I wouldn't have a problem with putting it up against those other sports.
