So the merry men of the WCDT have kicked out a long-standing contributor, who recently held a World Cup, just because of some innocent question? You guys just have to type out several paragraphs of hate that doesn't really mean anything? For crying out loud guys, it's just a game. We aren't FIFA or UEFA or any of those real organizations, so just cut it. Please.

Well, World Cup 51, which is currently ongoing, is scheduled to end late next week. Based on that, I would estimate the next Baptism of Fire will likely start in early-to-mid July and World Cup 52 around the end of July or so.

For the last week I've been running around like a madman trying to find someone to bid for the next Baptism of Fire with me. So far I have had no luck so:

Would anyone like to bid for Baptism of Fire 39 with me?

Sorry to say it again but I really want to host it.

Ive done it before, but I havent been in a Cup in awhile. 50, but I didnt RP and I think 39 was the last before that. Also depends on the scorinator used (or hopefully not).
