The World Cup Discussion Thread (OOC, version II)

[Virabia]

One of the funniest NSSports posts I've seen

Sorry I'm late but... 1093 cheers for PI.

I Luled!

Well at least you didn't write a very long and good RP, only to lose the whole thing when you clicked on preview, and then had to write up a shorter, worse version of the original. I've lost track of the numberous RP that I've "lost" on here.

I always Ctrl-C my longer (timewise) posts before posting, so if it all goes mammary glands skyward, you just need to paste it back in.

Sometimes my Rp's are lost when all hope crashes and the dark knights of reeboot invade my screen. Or in other words the thing is out of battery, running on a dodgey cable that doesn't work and then snaps off.

And that's why I use a desktop. Also, not a fan of chargrilled lap.

Not strictly from a WCC event but;

"oo-oo, I'm Starblaydia, oo-oo, look at me, I can do a flashier graphics post inspired by a more upmarket and better drawn internet comic, oo-oo, its not even a meme, it's got its own website, oo-oo, how haughty, oo-oo."

Goddammit, Star

Loved it, btw.

[Krytenia]

For those wondering, I now have a pic of the Shirt Louder Than War, in all it's blinding glory.

[Andossa Se Mitrin Vega]

Damn, Kry. you always find shirts that burn away my eyesight,

Find? That's my shirt!!! Worn on national television and everything.

Getting back on topic; when are WC56 threads likely to appear?

[Polar Islandstates]

I would also like to know if there's a rough answer to that question.
I may or may not have started mentally considering friendly schedules and the closer I am to that thread appearing, the less sad I'm going to look...

Hi, I'm Starblaydia. Have we met?

Loved it, btw.

Thanks!

Kry and PI: In the BoF discussion thread, I asked the same question. K&P and ASMV said the tournament will end on Friday, so we can expect WC 56 threads over the weekend or early next week.

Oops, forgot to warn you it was red.

Seen worse.

If I thought I could get away with it without either derailing the thread or encouraging picspam - the heavy responsibilities of being a mod - I'd post a picture of the green Mobutu shirt I picked up in Zaire some 20 years ago.

It makes Kry's shirt look restrained.

Incidentally, if Krytenia are looking for new away kits, I think your red shirt offers possibilities....

Too late. It's been used for the last four cups...sort of.

And of course, it starts just as soon as I'm gone for summer camp for three weeks

Just my luck!

[Valanora]

World Cup 56 initial threads are up.

[Pretty Awesome Persons]

I just realized the average age in my squad is around 29/30.

[Carasatoga]

Mine is really old too. I'll do a re-hall for the next WC and get some young guns in there.

[Hakkland]

when is the next WC ?

[The Kangaroo Republic]

I just realized the average age in my squad is around 29/30.

Mine is somewhere around 27 average.

[Jimmer Fredette]

when is the next WC ?

Starting right after the Baptism of Fire.The qualifying is.

Hey, where would I be able to find the most recent world rankings. I don't want to schedule friendlies against the most ridiculously good of opponents, or perhaps mock them by having an unranked team schedule a friendly with them.

[Darmen]

I beleive Civil Citizenry has the most up to date rankings in his sig. The rankings will be updated right after the BoF though.

[Kagdazka and Pazhujebu]

I'd refer you to them, except that within a matter of days, with the end of the BoF, a new set of rankings will come out. Could be as soon as tomorrow if ASMV or I can get ahold of Aguazul (who usually does the rankings) and send him the BoF results.

[Aguazul]

I believe in working smarter, not harder, and have already found a quick way to update the totals so far. Just need to add the last two rounds. I can have them done almost as soon as the tournament ends.
