[Cricket] GCF World Test Challenge season 12 - SCHEDULING

[Gruenberg]

So that gives:

1-2 @ The Sarian
3-4 @ TJUN-ia
5-7 v Lisander
8-10 v The Licentian Isles
11-12 vacant, away trip preferred

[Lisander]

That leaves 11-12 for a two test series if anyone wants to face the Isles.

Could it be Lisander?

Matchday (somewhere between**) 8-12 Baggieland away to Alice Bay.

Both sound good to me!

**maybe wait and see your final schedule first?

With 11-12 offered to The Licentian Isles, would 8-9 (two tests) or 8-10 (three tests) work to Baggieland?

Confirming MD1-2 hosting Ethane (contracted via Discord), reducing Lisander @ Liventia to two tests MD3-4.

[Darmen]

11-12 vacant, away trip preferred

Darmen would be happy to host Gruenberg on these dates.

Current Proposed Schedule
MW 1-2: OPEN
MW 3-4: Darmen in Ko-oren (2 matches: plus 3 match ODI Friendship Trophy) - confirmed
MW 5-7: Darmen in Liventia (3 matches: Edwards-Winter Trophy) - confirmed
MW 8-10: OPEN
MW 11-12: Gruenberg in Darmen (2 matches) - confirmed

EDIT: Gruenberg tour confirmed.

Liventia will offer an away series on MD1-2 to any new or returning nations.

1-2 @ The Sarian
3-4 @ TJUN-ia
5-7 v Lisander
8-10 v The Licentian Isles
11-12 @ Darmen

Still looking for my first 4 with my puppet. :)

[Ethane]

Ethane's schedule:

MD1-2: @ Lisander
MD3: OPEN
MD4-7: VS Sylestone
MD8-12: OPEN

Gruenberg, which is your puppet again?

[Milchama]

I'd love to be in for four games.

Confirming this.

[Ko-oren]

MD1-2: Bollonich in Ko-oren

MD5: BYE
MD6-7: Krytenia in Ko-oren
MD8-9: The Grearish Union in Ko-oren
MD10-11-12: Ko-oren in the Plough Islands

That's our schedule done.

Could I get confirmation about the unconfirmed series v Krytenia and Grear so they can go into the official schedule?

[The Grearish Union]

Liventia will offer an away series on MD1-2 to any new or returning nations.

MD5-7: hosting Darmen (Edwards-Winter Trophy)
MD8: NO MATCH
MD9-11: touring series TBD, with offers to be made later in the season.

It will have to be 8-9 (2 tests) as I'm new to test cricket and already have another 2 test series against The Sarian.

Lisander or Alice Bay? I would prefer Alice Bay as Lisander is already an established test side, like I said, I'm new to test cricket. But I'll leave it up to you. If Lisander is easier for you, then I'll take my thrashing like a man!!

[Galimencia]

Hello there!

I am a new nation to test cricket, so am looking forward to a test series of 4 matches. Home or away, it doesn't matter.

FYI, the IC name will be Britland.

[Garbelia]

Also looking for 4 games. Not picky. Home or away, first time.

We would like to visit Garbelia weeks 1-2.

Also looking for 4 games. Not picky. Home or away, first time.

Considering we were both historic unranked nations before, do you wanna play Weeks 1-2 at yours?

If not 1-2, any other time that isn't 3-4 can be done.

Will accept both of these. Is it possible to play in Weeks 1, 2, 5 and 7?

5 and 7 is definitely possible and I can accept that.

That means my current schedule is as follows:

MW3-4: vs Gruenberg
MW5: @Garbelia
MW7: @Garbelia

[Liventia]

From a scheduling standpoint, I have no issues with putting TJUN-ia in Garbelia on MD5 and 7 as long as neither team schedules a Test on MD6, as the matches in the series would still be consecutive and meet scheduling requirements.

Updated schedule to follow shortly.
