I will be taking over scorination of Electrum's assigned scorinations as he has some school things to take care of. Thankfully, that part doesn't have any of my schools in it, so I won't need any third-party scorinators.

I'm curious about this random idea I've been debating with myself. Would there be any interest in a thread for signing free agents? Would anyone be interested in signing some Vannish players? I have a few club teams and run a domestic tourney every once in awhile. It could be cool to have signed some international players to these teams. Maybe someone else wouldn't mind some international flair as well. But if there's not much interest, I won't bother with a thread. If nothing else, send me some TGs about it.

Fun tourney everyone!

Probably not until March next year at the earliest when my RL schedule starts to die down and RL interest starts go back up due to March Madness.

Well, after practically binge watching college basketball, I suppose I'll do something domestically before this (potentially) restarts. Anyone got any players lookin' for foreign exchange? :p

To the (few) people who were actively waiting, I finished the conference badges tonight. I'll have to write up a post for them, that'll probably come later in the week when the full field of 64 is released so I can add commentary on that. Thanks for the tips, hosts!

I haven't had time over the past week to get a list of 48 schools together, so I think its probably best if I abstain instead of holding up the 64 team tournament until I actually have the time to put together a proper list or sending in a rushed list.

Yo, I'm liking the common trend in these predictions ;) (and only one of those is mine!)

Good luck to everyone in the bracket! Hope there aren't as many upsets in the first round as there were last year.

These were in my latest RP, if you didn't notice.

Also, my cutoff will come very late tonight due to the school play happening. Because of this, I'll post the scores at the same time I cut off to save myself time.

Oh, don't think this was in one sitting! :p This was about 3 night's and a study hall's worth of work. But y'know, when there's a long break I'm able to do stuff like that.

And thanks! I love peppering humor into my RPs. That's the only way I don't feel guilty making them grossly long.

Well considering that last year you only had one, you were twice as likely to get one through the first round! Definitely an upset, though. Maybe you can pull off 2 in a row so you can get annihilated by Metropolon in the Sweet Sixteen :P
