For some reason, I'm more surprised that Saintland wasn't drawn against Brenecia than I am that Free Republics was drawn against New Sideburn...

And I'm drawn against you again :(

I think you have multiple run ins with another RPer, right? Wasn't Karditan? :p

Maybe this is the beginning of another Karditan-Sova like event? :p

I'm honestly quite excited to play against New Sideburn.

Also, about the Oceania-AO thing, do you guys know how to play 'Spot the Sarcasm'? It's actually quite a good game. :p

Of course I knew it was sarcasm, but I revel at any chance to prove a Rushmori wrong. :P

Checks out my group draw-

SHIT... :palm:

I swear I will find Margaret one of these days and either kill her by sticking a rubber chicken down her throat, or give her a lay so awesome I win every World Cup from now on.

At least the other rps from the group will be good reading.

I think it is safe to conclude that Arch is both amazing and has a scary good memory.

In the CoH thread, by Brenecia:

They're an established side and are in the much-vaunted Class of 51 (that is to say, the Baptism of Fire 51 producing such nations as New Sideburn, Saintland, the Sova Empire, Nenets and Hyskigland), and it's hard to see how we can beat them.
