Legalese returns yet again
Host/Co-Host of many World Cup-associated things, mostly long ago. A couple of small wins as well, which is nice.

You're both eligible for the Baptism of Fire as well.

The Baptism of Fire is a pre-World Cup tournament for nations competing in their first World Cup. It gives you a chance to test the RP waters, get some rivalries going with other newbies, win some silverware, and boost your ranking. This will be the only time you'll be eligible though.

If you like the sound of it, just amend your signups to include the BoF.

Good luck!

Do bear with us, nobody with access to the NSWC Signups account has had the chance to update in the last couple of days.

EDIT: But don't worry, as one of the people with access is me!

Hey, no worries. Think of it this way; gives you more time and opportunity to develop your storyline(s). That can't be a bad thing, right?
