WC of Hockey Discussion thread

[Qazox]

And it's now unlost!

[Swartaz]

hello

[Dancougar]

To avoid cluttering up the sign-up thread, Dancougar will use this space to announce a boycott of the planned boycott of the World Cup of Hockey. We hope that our playing hockey will send a strong message to the world that... uh... it's awesome and stuff?

[Tocrowkia]

The Reich also announces a boycott of the choice of a moose as the mascot. We think a penguin would be so much more awesome.

[Delaclava]

Delaclava supports Dancougar's boycott of the boycott, and also Tocrowkia's boycott: not that the mascot is a moose, but that it was chosen by one nation rather than all nations.

[Dancougar]

Hmm... we like penguins in Dancougar. A lot. But moose are also very cool. Totally laid back and... I don't know, moosey. Perhaps we could have a penguin riding a moose!

[Connar Republic]

Polar Bears -> Moose-> Penguins

[Skworn]

But, but, "MOOSE!" is a grand tradition in the world of international ice hockey! We protest boycotts of moose and invoke the Curse of Susan Aglukark's ghost upon all nations who participate in them.

What about it? Moose have been deeply intertwined with hockey since the beginning.

So, i say Tree Octopus all the way. Or why do we even need a mascot?

[Delaclava]

Qazox, not that big of a deal, but you spelled "Discussion" wrong in the thread title.

[Taeshan]

Um, well if margaret strikes back maybe.

Remind me again why the upsets the scorinators create are referred to as "Margaret."

And inform me for the first time, as I have no clue.

Because that is what she said.

The Moose is tradition.

Just like in RL, the Octopi in Detroit, a World Cup of Hockey/Cherry Cup (as it was once known) without a rampaging moose is just wrong.

[Sarzonia]

Say, could someone create a uniform/sweater for Sarzonia?

Because the NHL uses coloured uniforms at home matches and white at away matches, here's how I'd like the kits to look if possible:

HOME: Navy blue with the star pattern of my national flag in the centre of the sweater in silver (or white if silver's not possible). The uniform number should be below the left shoulder and above the right column of stars. A silver stripe should line the outer pants legs (if this is possible to render).

AWAY: White with the star pattern of my national flag in the centre of the sweater in navy blue. The uniform number should be below the left shoulder and above the right column of stars. A navy blue stripe should line the outer pants legs (if this is possible to render).

ALTERNATE: Silver (if possible; otherwise, grey will be fine) with the star pattern of my national flag in the centre of the sweater in navy blue. The uniform number should be below the left shoulder and above the right column of stars. A navy blue stripe should line the outer pants legs (if this is possible to render). If navy blue is too odd to work with this colour, feel free to use black in its place.

The back of the sweater should have the player's last name with a uniform number in a block style, corresponding to the colour schemes mentioned above.

If someone were able to use a specific player, I'd like it to be Mark Ridley (number 17).

[Qazox]

I'll have the World Cup of Hockey X NSWiki/Wikistates page up after the first half of qualifying.

[Newmanistan]

Quick notes as we get set to drop the puck on the World Cup of Hockey.

First, cutoffs should be expected around 9:30- 10am Eastern US time. The WCoH will be cutoff and scorinated before the Keisler Cup.

Secondly, the dates on the schedule are not set in stone. You will notice there are no off days. I may add an off day after the group stage and one in the playoffs sometime; this will depend on how things look in regards to WC49, particularly if my hosting bid is successful with TBI. If it is unsuccessful, or if it appears to be starting well into mid-November (which is probably what is going to happen), I will add a couple off days.

[Delaclava]

Sarzonia, I must say I rather enjoyed your most recent hockey RP.

Well thank you! I combined little bits of Pink, President Obama and Secristan in one RP.

Ted Leinhold = Kanye West.

[Newmanistan]

Scorination will be an hour or two later.

But be glad it will occur, because I almost got in a major car accident with a school bus because the bus, carrying a load of kids decides he's going to.... well this isn't the place for it. I'm a little shaken and after calling the school district to report this I need to get a clear head again as I am pretty enraged atm.
