World Cup roleplay is best roleplay! Anyway, welcome to this vast, diverse and often absolutely strange community.

Poafmersia's WC86/CoH78 Prediction Game!
You may not have gotten into the World Cup, but I am sure you have in mind who are deserving World Cup winners! Why not you tell us how the World Cup will unfold from top to end, and see how accurate you are?
The Prediction Game would only require 1 entry, before the competitions begin, where you predict every single result. You start with the Group Stage - you name the results for every match. Based on how you name the results for every match, the knockout bracket would be generated as such. You then predict those results, all the way up to the Finals and the Bronze Medal Match.
Here is how the points will be awarded.
For every match in the Group Stage -
1 point for every correct result you predict.
2 point for every exact scoreline you predict.
For every match in the Knockout Stages -
2 points for every correct result you predict.
3 points for every exact scoreline you predict.
Here is the catch - you must get the exact match correct. Meaning, there must exist such a match in that particular stage between those 2 opponents. (Eg. If I predict that Group A winners are Ko-oren, and Group B runners-up, who play the Group A winners in the Round of 16, is The Holy Empire. I can then gain points if I predict the result between Ko-oren and The Holy Empire in the Round of 16 correctly)
On top of that, at the start of every stage in the Knockout Stages -
1 point for every team that you accurately predict to be in that stage. (Eg. If I predict Baker Park to only reach the Quarterfinals, and they reach the finals, I gain 2 points for predicting correctly that they are in the Round of 16 and the Quarterfinals)

Silver Commonwealth wrote:Well, the World Cup 86 so far has been enjoyable for me. NS Sports are waters with which I am not the most familiar, and this is the first time I have joined such a RP, but that is what makes it particularly fun for me. Either way, I hope that The Holy Empire (And Audioslavia if they get through Playoffs) manage to do well in the rest of the tournament!

Really good performance for you, coming from a really difficult group and yet get some results.
Also on another note, after the WCQ fantasy, anyone up for some prediction game for both the World Cup and Cup of Harmony? I am looking at the following set of rules, if anyone has any suggestions about how to make it better, feel free to point them out!Poafmersia's WC86/CoH78 Prediction Game!

One note though, sending out invites today already: wouldn't it be better to wait after the playoffs are done?
Or is my tiredness catching up with me and am I being an idiot now?

If anyone has a relatively young manager who can commit to operating a balanced style and a 4-4-2 formation, I'm willing to entertain candidates.

We have Nichola Mentes, manager of the u-18 team that went to the semis in SWC 11.

In order to prevent issues from cropping up, I had the idea of making a solo bid with the promise of using "third parties" as consultants to help out with behind the scenes. I want to know what the WCC People think about this.
I wanna take every precaution possible to make sure I can finally have a smooth hosting gig.
