World Cup of Hockey 44 - Signup Thread

[Quebec and Shingoryeo]

Alright. Since we didn't get any signup past 40, I'll add Gatchingerrak Union (pre-confirmation) and wait for one more signup before closing it.

Okie.

[Nephara]

"They're made out of meat."
"Meat?"
"Meat. They're made out of meat."
"Meat?"
"There's no doubt about it. We picked several from different parts of the planet, took them aboard our recon vessels, probed them all the way through. They're completely meat."
"That's impossible. What about the radio signals? The messages to the stars."
"They use the radio waves to talk, but the signals don't come from them. The signals come from machines."
"So who made the machines? That's who we want to contact."
"They made the machines. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Meat made the machines."
"That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat."
"I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. These creatures are the only sentient race in the sector and they're made out of meat."
"Maybe they're like the Orfolei. You know, a carbon-based intelligence that goes through a meat stage."
"Nope. They're born meat and they die meat. We studied them for several of their life spans, which didn't take too long. Do you have any idea the life span of meat?"
"Spare me. Okay, maybe they're only part meat. You know, like the Weddilei. A meat head with an electron plasma brain inside."
"Nope. We thought of that, since they do have meat heads like the Weddilei. But I told you, we probed them. They're meat all the way through."
"No brain?"
"Oh, there is a brain all right. It's just that the brain is made out of meat!"

[Soldera]

Signing up as a puppet of Sarzonia.

Feel free to drop if needed for numbers.

Confirming Soldera's puppet status above

[Quebec and Shingoryeo]

So it looks like we had 41 nations instead of 40 before the addition of Nephara and two puppets.

I will be keeping Nephara, but leaving Gatchingerrak Union and Soldera out.

And now, here we have the World Cup of Hockey 44 everything thread. MD1 will be on the 8th of December.

We've already started the World Cup of Hockey, so it's too late to join the current edition.

You're welcome to sign up for the 45th edition when signups open for that one!
