With the real life AFL starting tomorrow, there seems to be no better time to open signups to the sixth edition of the Aussie Rules World Cup (ARWC). In previous editions, one prominent powerhouse has emerged - Sarzonia - but last edition, Ko-oren's Eagles (not Dragonflies) finally broke through to win their first Cup, climbing to second in the rankings in the meantime. Currently, there seems to be a big gap between the so-called "big five", but deep runs from the likes of HUElavia, Hebitaka and StrayaRoos in the past have shown that upcoming nations in the sport are more than capable of producing upsets and possibly even going all the way. Will an established nation hold aloft the trophy this time, or will someone new? We can't wait to find out!
In order to sign up, just post your intentions as a new post below, saying something such as "We sign up" or similar.
Puppet Policy
Any nation may enter a puppet, but this must be confirmed by both the puppet and the main that they are both run by the same user. Additionally, each user may only enter a maximum of one puppet and all main nations will be preferred over any puppets participating.
Host Bids
Any nation or user may bid to host the fourth Aussie Rules World Cup, whether experienced or new. Host bids must include proposed formats, tiebreakers, scorination methods and experience while IC information is recommended. Potential bidders should consider this, this and this before bidding.
The host bid deadline will be set to March 22 at 8:00 am, AEDT (March 21 at 9:00 pm UTC). If there are no bids by that point, the bidding deadline will be extended for another three days after the first host bid is announced.
