Nobody knows for sure but the last page or so of this thread has been a discussion about when the signups for World Cup 86 should open. I suspect they'll open sometime this month.
Historically, the signup thread is open for about 2 months before World Cup qualifying starts (and probably about 6 weeks before the Baptism of Fire starts). Even if the pace were somewhat faster, World Cup signups still run for a long time compared to pretty much any other event (with the possible exception of the Olympics).
Between World Cups, we hold the 4 major regional tournaments (AOCAF for Atlantian Oceania, CR for Rushmore, CE for Esportiva and IAC for "Independents" meaning everybody not affiliated with the big 3 sports regions), the under 21 tournament (Di Bradini Cup) and the under 18 tournament (Sporting World Cup). These tournaments will all happen before World Cup 86 starts even if their signup threads open after World Cup 86 signups.
Edit: Looks like Sporting World Cup signups are already open.
