Welcome, one and all, to the eighty-fifth World Cup! Presented by Mriin and Farfadillis, in collaboration with Kelssek and Zwangzug. This is the Roster thread where you'll provide information on your team.
Roster Details
You will earn Roleplay Bonus points for submitting a roster, and a more detailed and well-presented roster can be worth more points. Typically a roster will include somewhere between 11 and 23 players (though neither of these are hard limits), a manager/head coach/other assorted staff, and a home field for where your home qualifying matches will be played.
Style Modifiers
You may provide a Style Modifier, any number between -5.00 and +5.00, with your roster that determines how defensively or aggressively your team plays. A -5.00 team is ultra-defensive, a 0.00 team is balanced, and a +5.00 team is hyper-aggressive. You may request a change in your style modifier once during the tournament by contacting the host currently handling your group. For example, if you fire your current manager and hire a more defensively-minded one, you may wish to reflect that by altering your style.
RP Permissions Box
It's highly recommended you include a permissions box that gives your groupmates guidelines for how to roleplay your matches. We've provided a sample permissions box below:
- Code: Select all
My opponent, if they RP first, may do the following:
Godmod scoring events: Y/N
RP injuries to my players: Y/N
Godmod injuries to my players: Y/N
Give red cards to my players: Y/N
Godmod other events: Y/N
Other options you can consider are setting per-game maximums for injuries and cards, listing which of your players are most likely to score a goal/get injured/earn a card, or any information you think would be useful for your groupmates.
If you have any questions, reach out to the hosts and we would be glad to help. You can also check the Guide to Sports Roleplaying and see if your question is covered there.
