Looks like we'll start Thursday. I'd like to have started tonight but probably thursday is better.

Yeso's puppet here... So this is Yeso.
I meant what will the matchdays be? Whom do I play first, second, and third?

Falconfar, nice flag. What is it? A nebulae?

Tbh I googled "space" and picked this image because it looked cool.

[Euskirribakondara]

Hey.... I did not know I was 3rd and 0 points away from qualifying! Hehe, surprises everyday.
Congratulations to Bergnovinaia who did qualify

Euskirribakondara will go to the World Cup sometime this year!

[Jeruselem]

Hey, ASMV ... wonder if that Mace could bump into my Princess Sofia during our game?

[Qazox]

OH
GOD
NO....

Unlike our friend Qazox, I think that would be quite the show

[The Archregimancy]

Apologies again that I haven't been very active in RP recently.

I have been working, in conjunction with the other mods (and some of the admins), on this policy amendment to the moderation team's approach towards puppets in NS Sports:

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=164932

Since this is relevant to all of NS Sports, please take comments to that thread; but since this is the discussion thread for the largest event in the forum, I thought it couldn't hurt to draw your attention towards this.

[Homelands our]

In CoH group H should I not be 3rd on goals scored?

[NSWC Signups]

[Yesopalitha]

Someone check this for me:

-------Group D----     P  W  D  L GF-GA     GD  Pts
[1] Ipeland            2  1  1  0  7-3    +4   4
[2] Stachland          2  1  0  1  7-5    +2   3
 3- Yesopalitha        2  1  0  1  4-7    -3   3
 4- Wight              2  0  1  1  4-7    -3   1

Matchday 3 Schedule:

Ipeland vs Stachland
Yesopalitha vs Wight

So...
Case 1: Ipeland wins, Yesopalitha wins
Ipeland would advance with 7, and Yesopalitha with 6.
Case 2: Stachland wins, Yesopalitha wins
Yesopalitha would advance with 6 and Stachland with 6, with YSP getting the higher seed due to H2H.
Case 3: Ipeland wins, Wight Wins
Ipeland would advance with 7 and Wight with 4.
Case 4: Stachland wins, Wight Wins
Stachland would advance with 6 and Ipeland would advance with 4 (Unless Wight makes up for the 7 GD between the two teams somehow)
Case 5: Ipeland vs Stachland is a draw, Yesopalitha wins
Yesopalitha would advance with 6 and Ipeland with 5.
Case 6: Ipeland vs Stachland is a draw, Wight wins
Ipeland will advance with 5 and Stachland with 4 (due to H2H against Wight)
Case 7: Ipeland wins, Yesopalitha vs Wight is a draw
Ipeland will advance with 7 points and Yesopalitha second with 4.
Case 8: Stachland wins, Yesopalitha vs Wight is a draw
Stachland advances with 6, Ipeland advances with 4 (due to H2H against Yesopalitha)
Case 9: Ipeland vs Stachland and Yesopalitha vs Wight are both draws.
Ipeland and Yesopalitha advances (Yesopalitha ahead of Stachland due to H2H)

This being said, shouldn't I be second in the group since I beat Stachland?

I assumed that H2H, and then GD.

Please tell me if I'm wrong (I don't wanna RP the wrong thing).

-Yeso

[Vilita]

I assumed that H2H, and then GD.

According to our bid:

Tie-breakers:
1) Head to Head
2) Goal Difference
3) Goals Scored
4) Wins
5) KpB Ranking

The tables have been adjusted accordingly.

ooc: WC and BoF for us, please.

Oh crap... there goes the neighborhood

margaret... we humbly ask just one thing for World cup 59: an Audioslavia-Qazox final as to determine once and for all the worst team never to win a World Cup.

Perhaps World Cup 67 is more appropriate, and I hope to be the one to scorinate that final

Just remember that it's fated that Qazox and Jeruselem meet in WC69.. and that I win WC100 against one of my puppets..

Son, I was losing finals before you were losing pocket money. If we played in a final I would lose to you faster than you could say 'oh hey maybe Audioslavia have a chance'. I'm a lean, mean, losin' machine. You know what would happen if we had a big tournament between all the biggest losers in the world? I'd get to the final. And lose,

You don't think you could win an 'earthy' kits competition?

[Andossa Se Mitrin Vega]

You know what would happen if we had a big tournament between all the biggest losers in the world? I'd get to the final. And lose,

Audioslavia, Krytenia, Qazox, Arch, Spaam, Milchama, Jeruselem, and ??? Who gets the last spot in the field of 8? TnUI, TBI, Newmanistan… Or am I forgetting someone?

But there is no doubt that Audioslavia can lose a final like nobody’s business. How many is that? 4 I think

I will step into that ring there, confident that I can lose like the dickens to anyone on that list. Except Milchama.

Anyone backing me to qualify for any World Cup up to and including WC 100?
