And with that signup by Silver Commonwealth,

SIGNUPS ARE NOW CLOSED!!


It is possible that a couple spots open up with CTE's, so we will now put names on a waiting list. However, note that the 182 signup number will not be expanded.

With the final spot being taken, Grand Quebecois will be delighted to at least know that they are on a reserve list. The greatest soccer stars of Grand Quebecois are to be participating in (if the spot opens up) in both the Baptism of Fire and the World Cup.

Hey Grand Quebecois, let it be noted that if a spot does open up, you will only be eligible to join the World Cup. The Baptism of Fire is full and in its final stages. Just thought to let you know.

Thanks.

Thank you, I didn't think about that. Now I might be asking a question I can easily find an answer to, but will I be able to join in to the next BoF if I participate in this World Cup?

No. However, the World Cup is one of NS Sports' biggest and most active events, so I would definitely encourage you to sign up and if you're interested rather than wait several months for the next cycle. If you do, you'll be able to enter a puppet (second nation) next cycle if you want to participate in a BoF as well.

You know, I was just about to post my request to exit the competition, but what's the fun in that? I'll take my chances. I've always been a fan of a Cinderella story, even though I doubt I can pull it off.

SIGNUPS UPDATE:


Razneta is CTE, and Grand Quebecois is given the spot (slot #86 on my prior list). Razneta must re-sign up while there is still an opening to be reinstated.

With the withdrawal of Hapilopper and Wreckeria (slots #8 and #11) there are now TWO OPENINGS!

Your signup is accepted for the World Cup. However, the Baptism of Fire is already underway, and in fact had its championship game today.

There is room for ONE MORE signup.

So, I'm supposed to declare the LDSS a puppet because we use the same devices.

I guess there's a reason behind it, even if Petrov decided on drawish, boring confusion which is something I appreciate.

Unfortunately though, what Megistos said was correct. The signups for World Cup have just been closed. We will keep you waitlisted, in case another nation withdraws or CTE's between now and the group draw. I don't think any currently signed up nations are in danger of CTE'ing before then though, so you are probably out of luck.

2. Murphtannia was encouraged to add their name to the waitlist by another user, so your comment is extra unhelpful.
