Extenuating circumstances this time, promise. Extenuating in that I came back from holiday with a Mrs Star-to-be. So yep, for those not following on facebook, my gf said yes to the popped question and we're engaged

Congratulations So In about 6-7 years we'll have Starblaydia Jr. Winning a World Cup?

Star breeds precocious 6 year old internet roleplaying prodigy? Awesome.

I bloody well hope not. One of you is bad enough

[Novikov]

Thank you, Margret! I'm still in the running, with a (long) shot at 2nd in my Group. Not bad for my first ever qualifying tournament.

I'm officially a roleplaying prodigy? Awesome.

[Tarrentum]

Can everyone left in my Group (Bostopia, Kelssek, Sargossa, Pays de Horreur) like, roll over and quit so i can have a chance?

Still though, fun times, fun times.

[Sarzonia]

I just want to make it clear that my last post was SOLELY my IC opinion and should only be taken as such.

[Tarrentum]

Oh, sure sure...We all know you hate Newmanistan

Thanks for the props BTW

[Zarbli]

How is it possible that Upper North Yorkshire wins so much? The guy doesn't even know the tournament is happening!

[Sarzonia]

You should see what happens when his former second baseman Carrie Nicolette and my third baseman Kate Schmidt are in the same room.

No problem. I've enjoyed seeing you do well.

In that case, we’ll expect the Cassadagan Association for Soccer Excellence to direct their complaint solely to Mr West for describing us as the defending champions.

Of course, one can expect nothing less of a paper called the Daily Mail…

Corrected since MY Daily Mail is supposed to actually be a reputable newspaper.

Of course, I could always spin that by saying we want to think World Cup 50 never happened...

[Undeadzombiee]

Really, really, really needed that win...

[Andrewboy]

Really, really, really needed that win...

why, your already out.

[Tretskivucia]

i really want to beat you, Andrewboy.

[Andrewboy]

i really want to beat you, Andrewboy.

I think ill finsish 3erd and youll finish 4th.

[Novikov]

One inglorious defeat at the hands of Carpathia and Ruthenia and I'm out... Damn.

[Undeadzombiee]

Because I would have had a terrible ranking, but probably still will...

David James = Cthulhu?

[Jeruselem]

Well done to that Queer ... err ... team, with the funny name for making the finals.
My Joe idiot character did something useful finally.

Group 3 looks like no fun.

Oh, no, Group 3 is fun: Okay, so Starblaydia has the first qualifying slot pretty well sewn-up, but who will join it in the actual Cup? Krytenian humans, Miceland Mice, or even TUN's Bears?

^_^

[Andossa Se Mitrin Vega]

Eliminated and finally I kick someone's butt 5-0. where was that 4 matches ago when it would have helped. I hate you Margaret.

Star does remember I'm a Portsmouth supporter, right?

Anyway, Cthulhu's a bit of a red herring - as today's RP will demonstrate. After the Aztecs, I was never seriously going to risk fielding someone who could destroy all creation.

Though I have to admit it was tempting to have "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" as a terrace chant...

The great Starblaydia sees all, knows all.

How else do you explain the hairdo and goalie kit so pink that TV screens can't display them properly? Did You Just Drop Cthulhu from the Squad? Did Star use too many puns?

[The Weegies]

I do believe my RP as seen here: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=2264603#p2264603 is valid, no?

Homage to Weegies' WC13 infamous RP. Not plagiarism, since at least Weegies won back in the day.

...I won? I find this to be highly unlikely, at best. Anyways, infamously, that's a parody of Aquila's rather... singular RP style. So it's a homage of a parody.

OMGMETA.

Also, congrats Star!

[Andrewboy]

FUCK! 4-2 loss, and i dont qualify.

[Tretskivucia]

Bugger, another loss and now i'm out.
