What about this Cygnus cup thing? Do new entrants get a spot in there?

The other guys are right, but as mentioned in the thread, you do require a scorinated cup in order to get entrance. It can't just be a match between the winners of two leagues, rather a complete knockout league cup.

That's what I did. I posted a one-legged match between the champions of Filopines Premier League and Catocton(puppet) First League but someone said it was not allowed.

Check what I just did to my original comment. It cannot just be a match between two league winners. It must be a cup involving many teams. You're Colonial Cup was essentially a Community Shield like fixture, and doesn't allow admission to the Cygnus Cup. As it is called, it is the Cup for Knockout Cup winners. You never scored a knockout cup. Hence you can't compete in the Cygnus Cup. Yet.

There are certainly Association Football, Basketball, Babbage Rules, and Baseball which I see you have already found. They seem to be the most active at the moment. And of course, many nations have their own thread in which all their domestic results can be posted, here's a lovely one right here... ahem!

In xkoranate? Yeah, the "absolute" and "relative" bonus scales just go from 0 to 1, so you'll have to design your bonus scale accordingly.

alright I set up a thread to ask this question and was directed here here's what I put:

Alright I'm new to the sports section here, and by new I mean this is my first post in the section, but The weather where I am gave me an idea for a contest basically a survivalist contest, here's what it would be like mountainous terrain 140 miles 120 degrees farenheit 14 days and it's a race with a bit of a catch, you're given 50 pounds not including a backpack of useless stuff that you have to carry with you the entire time and the last one(s) to finish each leg are eliminated, my question is, I've heard some scorination thing, would it be possible to do that with this idea, if not is there another thing I could do that's compatible with this idea?

Back int eh day I believe Liventia and Ancharmunn ran a series of field hockey competitions. However, I haven't seen any recent ones.

You are going to want to open up Notepad and write a .txt file. Then you create basically a list of participants and their info like so:

Athlete;Team;Skill;

Once you save this you will be able to import it on the Set Participants page. The button is right next to the remove item ("-") button.

I've been thinking about starting a Domestic Newswires thread for T20 Cricket. If I get some interest I'll start it up. The World Competition (IUBC, TQCC-esque) will be called WTTA (World Twenty 20 Asscociation).

Cricket is an extremely niche market, not that many nations signed up for it when the old tests were around. I do not think it will be a success.

I am not. I don't know the first thing about it, and never really got into it because of that.

How long does a Baptist of Fire championship last, or how long is it until a new BoF is created? Because it seems I got here just after the cut...

Also, I read something about ranking/rating somewhere, is there an actual rating system?

It lasts about two weeks, then there is the World Cup. Then 2-3 months later the cycle repeats itself.

Yes there is a ranking system. if you consistently RP, your ranking will improve. The idea of BOF is that it gives you a few ranking points so you don't get white-washed in your first world cup.
