I've never been in a big tourney, but I have rp'd in some. Will I miss any games? Will I be disqualified? I'm starting to regret signing up, lol.
It's quite alright, actually.
The bid deadline isn't until Wednesday night Central Time in North America (sometime Thursday morning for most of the world).
There's usually six to seven RL days for the EWCC to vote on the bids, so I'd guess the possibility of missing any games would be slim. After the vote takes place, the hosts announce the schedule which sometimes includes a few days to post rosters and RPs before matchday 1 is scored.
You won't be disqualified if you can't post a roster or RP, it just makes it very difficult to win any games. Also, as many point out, you only get one chance at the Baptism of Fire, once a nation participates it's World Cup and Cup of Harmony from that point forward.
