The World Bowl Discussion Thread (OOC)

I agree with that. It's the rare person who's creative enough (or has no life enough, *winks at AIF*) to RP extensively with a puppet.

I don't know what threshold we should have to make enough numbers for a Baptism of Iron to be what we want it to be. Perhaps 20? There are certainly ways we can jiggle reduced numbers to make for a workable Baptism of Iron.

Speaking of puppets, can we get two more thrown down to get the World Bowl up to 45? That's a nice round number to work with.

by **The Babbage Islands** » Wed Apr 14, 2010 8:20 pm

Orange-and-Blue will enter.

by **Orange-and-Blue** » Wed Apr 14, 2010 8:21 pm

I make a more suitable puppet for gridiron than Sportgirls.

Puppet of TBI.

I don't know about that, some sporty girls have been winning everything lately ^_^ Orange-and-Blue makes 44 and I'll throw in Weanhall to get 45. An Everything Thread will go up later today.

They were already entered by virtue of their BoI signup.

It probably has something to do with RPs not guaranteeing victory, randomness playing a big factor... you should just read the long discussion currently going on in the World Cup Discussion Thread so we don't duplicate it here.

I was about to say...if GL wins this, I'm going to be pissed; that's not the point of puppets. They're to even out the numbers, not swipe chances from the people who actually RP.

If they are entered, they have a chance to win. You know that. That's the way things go. Dont be pissed, be happy they did well. Awesome offense, thats for sure.

I actually meant because I havn't RP'd with GL since I posted the roster. It seems colossally unfair, really.

It would also be sad that the first time I ever won something would be with a puppet. ;P

Just want to mention that Dancougar's term as World Bowl Committee President does expire at the end of this World Bowl. So we should probably start thinking about who we'd nominate to serve as the next President, whether its for Dancougar to be re-elected or for someone else.

by **Qazox** » Sat Apr 17, 2010 8:42 pm

I nominate Someone.

Is there a CREEP already?

* Committee to REElect the President

Just in case anyone wonders, this is not at all directed at anyone in this thread or meant as a personal insult or whatever, just a lame reference to Tricky Dick's reelection campaign 1972

Congrats to Andossa Se Mitrin Vega on being the Champions of the Fifth Baptism of Iron!

Only when it comes to the starting quarterback of the current president's favorite real NFL team.

No! it is a S.C.R.A.B.

Special Committee to Rally Around Ballas.

Congrats to the BoI champs, Andossa Se Mitrin Vega!

The World Bowl proper will begin sometime this week, once I have new rankings for building group draw pots. Need to go in search of that formula later...

Question: How is the Dancougar government gonna' deal with the Brutes, eh?

We'll need to hand out ration tickets so that Owen Powis doesn't eat all our food, and after that, probably robots. And if those get eaten, Margaret help us.

Thanks everyone. Now if I can just turn this into World Bowl success...

Fear the Pack Attack. I'll take Rodgers over Flacco any day.

by **Sarzonia** » Mon Apr 19, 2010 10:36 am

I guess your winning a BoI crown on Sarzonian soil is partial reward for my winning two Draggonnii Inviyattii titles on yours.

Congrats again.

*Sighs.* There's too many Green Bay fans. Like there's too many Clemson fans, and too many USC, and too many Texas fans.

Dancougar has contacted me about updating the WB rankings post-BoI. I am running into one minor technical problem but should have it resolved later today.
