World Cup of Hockey XXXI (31) Signups (Closed)

Postby World Cup of Hockey Federation » Sat Aug 06, 2016 2:32 pm

Welcome one and all to the Thirty-First Edition of the World Cup of Hockey. Can Valanora repeat from its' historic record breaking performance, will Elejamie return with a vengeance, or can some unexpected challenger knock off the powerhouses of the sport? If you intend to bid, please do so in this thread by Aug 13th at 2300 CDT, as the intent is to start the tournament approx two weeks from today.

To be considered valid, host bids must contain (at a minimum) details relating to scorination and the format being used. It is not recommended for you to make a WCoH bid unless you have at least some experience in hosting.

Puppet signups are allowed and must be declared as such, with a limit of 2 signups per user.

I can't think of anything witty or hype-worthy to say, so I'll just say a simple "in". Might also get round to finally improving my kit, since the thing I make it with now has 3D shorts.
