Is the Baptism of Iron still a thing, or will I be able to jump right into the World Bowl next time around?

Honestly, I'm not sure why you're taking it so personally. You seem to be very upset that this edition wasn't very active. Does it matter? Who cares? We can't wave a magic wand and return hundreds of users to NS Sport. As far as I'm concerned, just having tournaments run is enough for me. I enjoy following the results, discussing them with others on Discord or IRC, and from what I can see over the past two weeks, plenty of people still do as well.
My view: if someone isn't happy with the activity in the World Bowl, withdraw from future tournaments and stick to the still popular ones, like WCoH and the World Cup as a whole. Why ruin other people's fun because you aren't satisfied with how they are having that fun?

My love for this game is almost unhealthy. Almost.

I want to suggest to you to sign up for the World Baseball Classic, which has open signups right now and will probably begin in a week or two. If you are that passionate about football, I assume you are on our side of the ocean in North America. You might not really like baseball, but what it could be for you is a practice run for the next World Bowl. What it can provide you is an idea for how roleplaying a major competition works. How we set up rosters, and go about the tournament. When we roleplay, we don't necessarily have to talk about the competition, necessarily. You could, for example, talk about your football team's preparation for the next World Bowl, or give it some hype, while actually posting in the World Baseball Classic thread. The next World Bowl probably won't start to around when the real NFL season starts, at the earliest. Another tournament with open sign ups now with an imminent start date looks to be the World Lacrosse Championships, if you preferred that sport.

Perhaps reset everyone to zero, and then provided bonuses to everyone based on how they roleplayed in this tournament. Certainly I want to be fair to people like Abanfhleft, Drawkland, and Anthor among others, but there are users also who are completely riding their rank. If they get reset, then they will need to start contributing again, and contributing here, not in an off-forum location.

Thanks, my goal was to climb some ranks and hopefully qualify for the playoffs (I didn't expect to go all the way to the final). So I thought I better RP the most I can to achieve my goal, I didn't know no one else would RP.
