Bears Armed's football kits were made by a Starblaydi firm called 'ediraf', but I think they've gone out of business since then. Look around this forum, though, and you'll probably be able to find an advert for at least one alternative supplier who's still active.


(OOC: some of the other people here are willing to design kits if asked politely and not rushed...)

Am I right in thinking the KPB rankings will b updated for between the end of the Qualfiers but before the start of the World Cup proper. If so, when will this happen?

This.

And I assure you, she is working on it, so there's no need to remind her. I do rankings for my semi-regional cup and it takes me a while to calculate the ranks for just 30 nations or so. Aguazul has to do ranks for over 300 nations, so it is expected to take a few days at least.

If you want to calculate your KPB points, you can easily find the formula on NS Wiki.

Edit: The formula can be found in this article.

What day will Aguazul complete the new KPB rankings? I can't wait to see how good I'll be in the rankings! (probably in the 100s). They'll probably be finished on Tuesday or Wednesday.

If you are just going to ask a question, then make up an answer for yourself, don't post. Also, the content of your post is completely irrelevant and belongs in the WCDT, even though it would probably be a little bit off-the-wall there too.

I'm 90% sure you won't be in the top 100s. It's not that easy.

The rankings for most other major events (WBC, World Bowl, IBC, WCoH, Rugby, etc.) work mostly in the same manner; though there are a few exceptions like the Olympics, which have no real rankings to speak of.

True, but not the 3 events, I was just pointing it out. Anyways, there are a lot of events which don't even use rankings.
