Unfortunately, as a first time entrant you are unable to enter a puppet, so Puerto Dorados will not be entered into the competition. Greater South's signup is fine, and you'll be able to enter a puppet as well next time round.

For the sake of transparency, this post is brought to you by Krytenia.

i'll take a seat.
IC: the Order of Mare Nostrum, but are also known as the Knights of Mare Nostrum or simply Mare Nostrum. The year is 2022, with PMT tech.
Anthem: Ave Regina Caelorum

The Knights of Mare Nostrum are an order formed in 1189 centered around islands in the Mediterranean after the Knights Hospitaller and Templar merged, along with the integration of other knightly orders through history, and now serve a role as a militarized wing of the Papacy which utilises what is essentially hyper-militaristic canon law.

After reading the rules wrong and having it cleared up because of the recent BoF conversation, I'm entering the Gallian Union as a puppet of Bojikstan. Might not be able to RP every single MD but I do have a plan to keep both nations active...

Thank you.

With this, we have 149 signups, as Bojik confirmed the withdrawal of Gallian Union on the WCDT, and the withdrawal of Amerland Island.

Therefore, the World Cup will take the next 3 signups. After we get 3 more signups, signups will be closed, and the group draw will commence/threads will be posted ASAP.

Good luck everyone.

Yup, Darkmania is right. Although in the future he shouldn't post in this thread unless he's a host or EWCC member...

The BoF is just about to finish actually, but you're still more than welcome to still participate in the World Cup!

This is correct, I forgot to remove Somersville since they were banned (as the BoF hosts did).

Group draw will be finalized tonight, check out #nssport on IRC in the next half hour so if you want to catch the groups early. If not, you'll get them tomorrow like everyone else when the threads are posted.

Signups are now officially CLOSED. Good luck in the World Cup!

A delegation of highly motivated soccer moms from the Toponymanopolitan lunar suburb 'Muskrat 1' have lodged a petition to have their doped-up and genetically modified prodigies compete in the World Cup.

They won't leave my office and won't take no for an answer - it was only the promise of more trophies that got them to agree to participate in the BoF tournament too.

I would be grateful if you could process our application with due haste - Webbodia would have been honoured to host the event in one of our glorious sports arenas, but we have a bit of a dinosaur problem to contend with right now and it would be a shame if there were any more accidents.

Sorry, but the group draw has already been conducted, and therefore I can't really remove Kebec and replace with another nation at this point (threads will be posted momentarily, actually).

1) if they're a separate nation, they can't be entered because it force a redraw which I don't want to do as it would delay the tournament
2) if they're an IC continuation of Kebec then there needs to be RP evidence for it.
3) in any case, I'd need that actual nation to post on this thread to confirm.

Therefore, I will not be replacing Kebec's signup at this point.
