Just a gentle reminder to our hosts that both Dreamed Realm nations now have rosters that can be linked to the RP thread OP.

Americans who think soccer is a sport played by a bunch of foreign faeries [sic] - as my American High School's American football coach used to insist back in the early 80s - would now appear to have a point.

Yep, I pissed her off

Just to let you guys know since we consider each of you a part of our family, D&S's brother passed away today and we may be making a trip to the West Coast. Not sure how things are gonna play out. If we do go, we will be out of the loop for a bit. Just didn't want anyone to worry should we be gone for a while. keep up the awesome RP and we will let you know more as we know what is going on.

We're here for you guys. My thoughts are for him and you guys.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am very sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you.

Hugs from the Starblaydi contingent, you better get your asses back here because there's an swesome showdown match at Stadii Di Bradini to be had later!

by **The Kiaser Colonies** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 5:24 am

I'm sorry for you loss. My thoughts are with you.

by **Sarzonia** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 5:25 am

My sincere condolences to both of you and your family.

by **Dorian and Sonya** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 8:09 am

Thank you all. It really means alot. It really does. We love you all.

by **Andossa Se Mitrin Vega** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 9:45 am

Let me echo my wife and thank you all for your prayers and support.

I wouldnt miss that match for anything, Star. Gotta take ya down.

On a lighter note, i do love Mace. Nothing like a 6'4 250lb manager modeled after Mr T in appearance and on pitch mentality crossdressing and singing girlie songs to inspire at least a mediocre RP when you dont feel like doing one at all.

by **Qazox** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 6:57 pm

My condolences to both D&S and you for the loss of a family member. I pray for your family in this time of sadness.

These RP cutoff times really don't work for me.

by **Michael VII** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 4:12 am

So how exactly do I manage to lose 3-0 to a team that hasn't even RPed for the last few matchdays? I mean I can understand losing, but not getting thrashed!

I'm with Churchma, "screw you Margaret!"

It seems like they don't like us NSCF teams much!

by **Polar Islandstates** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 6:08 am

Because Kazzoria is the 44th ranked team in the KPB rankings. Assuming you're getting maximum bonus every time and Kazzoria doesn't RP at all, its still going to take more than four matchdays to even match Kazzoria's KPB. Until that point losing to the higher ranked team will always be the expected result, no?

by **Kalumba** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 7:43 am

Is the WC always like this, where you lose to the unranked, unrostered, un-RPing team and then beat the much higher ranked team which posts a roster and RPs?

by **Cotdelapoms** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 8:16 am

There's always wacky results in the first few rounds, it settles down as time goes by.

by **Kalumba** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 8:49 am

Ah, thank you. I could do with quite a few more wacky results if i want to qualify

by **Jimmer Fredette** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 8:56 am

I'm not doing so bad!I learned this in the World Bowl.I did great in the BoI,but I lost to teams in the World Bowl that I beat in the BoI.Also,rankings are a big part of it.The whole part of the BoI and BoF is to get the newcomers higher in the rankings.If tough to lose so much,but in the future it will be your 15 year,and all the powerhouses would forget about it.Or the stay.I haven't been here long enough to know.

by **Jimmer Fredette** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 8:58 am

I'm not sure if you think your gonna qualify,and I know you won the BoF,but first year teams rarely ever make the World Cup.Can anyone check when the last time it happened was?

by **Kazzoria** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 9:08 am

Bears Armed in world cup 44.

by **Kalumba** » Sun Jul 24, 2011 9:31 am

I know i'm not going to qualify, just wondering why i beat the good team after being murdered by the bad one
