International Basketball Championships 26 [Signups CLOSED]

Postby International Basketball Organization » Mon Jun 04, 2018 9:53 pm

International Basketball Championships 26

Signups


Welcome to the Premier Professional Basketball tournament in the NS Multiverse. This here is Drawkland, the fourth president of the esteemed International Basketball Organization, calling in nations one and all to signup for the 26th edition of the International Basketball Championships, otherwise known as the IBC. Anybody can signup, and users can submit up to 1 puppet (which must be declared). Be warned that puppets will be the first to be purged if the need arises to create a round number for the competition.

How do you signup? Well, like every other NS Sports competition besides a select few, just state your intent in the thread. Looks something like this, perhaps?
Drawkland wrote:Drawkland is in!
This also counts as a signup for Drawkland, of course.

Host bidding is open for anyone who thinks they can tackle the task. Host bids don't necessarily require anything by rule, but if you want any shot of winning hosting rights, you should include information on format, scorination method, and RP bonuses. The deadline for submission of host bids is two weeks from the time of this post (only members of the IBO may vote in both votes), ending at around 11:59pm Eastern Daylight Time (US), on June 19th. After that, there will be a week-long period for IBO Committee Members to send in their votes for an eligible host bid. At the end, the host will be selected based on the vote count, and signups, timing, & everything else with IBC 26 will be turned over to them.

In the interest of time, if there are 3 hosts bids for the IBC, cutoff for host bids will simply be 24 hours after the 3rd bid is posted.
