The Nations' Cup 2 <Champion: Anatala>

Postby Melki » Fri Jul 09, 2010 3:32 am

Hello, and welcome to the Nations' Cup 2! After an amazing performance by Cosumar and Paroom as champions of the Newbies and Veterans series respectively I have started another tournament. This cup is sort of a Triathlon. Nations will compete in three sports— Baseball, Gridiron (American Football), and Quidditch.
The cup will be scorinated by The Babbage Islands' Miscellanator. Rankings will be scored by population for the first round, then normal rank for the rest of the rounds. Round results are released twice a day; one at around 10:00, one at about 5:00. PLEASE DO NOT TG ME IF I DO NOT POST A ROUND'S RESULTS; I PROBABLY AM OUT AT THE STORE OR AT A FRIEND'S.
The playoffs work like this:
2 teams from each group go to the playoffs as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th seeds respectively. Then they play in the semifinals. The winners play in the championship and the loser plays in the 3rd place game (like the world cup).
Aspen Group:
1. The New Caribbean
2. Freenarnia
3. Natbia
4. Cosumar
Beech Group:
1. Newivory
2. Hayaba
3. Wadomia
4. Anatala

Let thy games begin!

Sorry, it's been 12 hours since the first one ended. Can a second tournament not wait a while? Not even the World Cup (or, more broadly speaking, a World Cup cycle) happens this often. I'd argue it's not unlike spamming.

I don't think it is. Why not have another one already? Each tournament is quick (about 4 days) so I don't know how this could be bad. I understand why you think so, though.

I believe you've been told the rule is ONE BUMP A DAY. Kindly don't bump a few hours later.

[edit]You've now had two mods remind you of this. Don't force us to attach an official warning to it.

Melki-I enjoyed the last Nations Cup but I agree it is too early to start another one. Wait a week or two, then I will gladly participate again. That is my advice, but it is your decision.

It's just not realistic to start nc2 less than a day after nc1 ended. Either way I will sign up though. The champions don't want to get left out of another NC!

But others will be more reluctant to sign up for this only a few hours after the first one ended.

No, baseball has at least 12, Gridiron at least 11, and Quidditch has 7.
