World Baseball Classic Discussion Thread

We finally made the finals. Hoo boy, it's been a long time. My condolences to Schiltzberg; you were probably more deserving in terms of effort. Congrats to West Phoenicia for making a big jump, but falling just short. Ethane, I'm looking forward to a great finals series.

Will the third place series be best of five?

by **The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 10:16 am

I posted something in the ic thread because I thought it was the discussion thread.

Sorry guys.

Absolutely. I don't want it overshadowing the main event, after all.

Yay Weird Al for the music!

No one is surprised that I'm a Weird Al fan, are they?

It was the wrong IC thread, too

I was tired and I couldn't find the discussion thread.

That's what I figured, but you never know.

Does 3PPO stand for "3rd place playoff" or something else? I knew that it meant the third place series, but I've only seen that acronym in NS Sports.

Yes, at least for me it does.

Lion Brewing Company should try doing bourbon barrel alr. It's certainly a unique one to add to the repertoire.

They should stock SCHILTZ MALT LAGER, the Schiltzbergian competitor to a certain American brewing company.

Out 3PPO is settled. Will the championship follow tomorrow, or can the Lions pull a brave 3-1 comeback?

The Cubs and that Lebron guy did it, so why not Nova Anglicana? I'm glad I got third. Congrats to West Phoencia on a great season, but comissorations on the series loss.

Thats fine. I had no time to rp due to increased caseload at work.

I think we might've heard of that guy a little bit. Some sport about bouncing a ball...

Can I do it? Is a first World Baseball Classic trophy going to happen?

True. Speaking of Frenline's reference to hall of fames in the cutoff, I coincidentally was updating the Hall of Fame just now. There will be no one eligible for vote this time around, because though Ethane would be at 10 in the case that they win, they don't have 10+ seasons, so they are ineligible for a vote. Regardless of who wins, Nova Anglicana will be over 20 points, though this is not as meaningful, since they have already been voted in. Frenline Delpha now has 13 points after hosting this season, though they still are ineligible to be voted in and will be until after the WBC 42 season. Schiltzberg is pushed up from 28 to 30 with a third place finish.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh woooooooooooooooooooo baby yeah!

Guess I'll - um - write up my victory spe- I mean news article - tomorrow. Thank you Frenline Delpha for being a great host.

Honestly though, would your nation be happy that I won after losing out to you last edition, or pissed because the nation they had beaten in the last finals last edition won in their own country?

Congratulations, Ethane!
