Funny you asked.

The voting period will be eight days - get your votes in, people!

I've got skills. Now if only I could vote.

At least we won a friendly match.

I won one and tied the other two (0-0 @ TBI, 2-2 @ QMA, 2-1 vs. Albundania). I'll definitely take that!

The Holy Monastic Synod of the Archregimancy and the Monastic Football Association are pleased to officially announce a joint bid to co-host the next Baptism of Fire Tournament between The Archregimancy and The Weegies.

Much opportunity RP-related hilarity (we hope) will be had as the Orthodox monks and the atheistic Weegies get into all sorts of hi-jinks following several terrible misunderstandings over just what the nature of 'baptism' is supposed to mean in this context.

Though I haven't confirmed it with the Weegies, I imagine we'll be using NSFS to scorinate, because for the first time in my hosting career I can't be bothered looking for a new scorinator to test.

Traditionally BoF bids haven't needed a bid thread, but if voters want me to conjure one up, just ask.

The Dreamed Realm nations' hosting experience stretches allllll the way back to World Cup 2, and they have hosted or co-hosted three World Cups and at least two Cups of Harmony. They have also served in an official mentor (though not co-host) capacity for at least one past BoF.

I know what you're thinking; "Did he host six events or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a an event sanctioned by the WCC, the most powerful committee in NS sports, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky?

The Weegies fill the semi-traditional BoF co-host role of the less experienced co-host.

No doubt others will join me in enjoying the rich irony of Taeshan, of all people, complaining about someone else spamming the discussion thread.

Funny. Truly jocund today are we?

Be honest though Taeshan, this thread wouldn't be as near to 100 pages without you.

Maybe but i can think of some others who helped more, like Qazox probally, Dae if he hadnt had personal issues, and many others who probally spammed lost of times.

Anyway.. Are all returning teams (ie: Sativaville) with a KPB rank of 0.00 still eligible for the BoF, pending the hosts discresion?

My point exactly.

by **Connar Republic** » Tue Sep 22, 2009 10:13 am

So would you guys vote a new nation to host a BoF tournament.

Yanno, someone different

Probally not, i think it would have to be to a lack of serious voting though to have one. On another note since most newbies dont have any rep most bids are not taken seriously.

75% of the previous 12 posts are by someone who's been complaining about spam. Few of which are necessary, relevant, or add anything to discussion. At one point, there are 5 consecutive posts by the same person.

Tae, do you think you could possibly edit your posts so as to combine several points in one post, rather than litter the thread with, well, spam?

Thank you.

And I'm explicitly requesting that you not reply directly to this.

Either way, it is always easy to point out stupidness. Takes one to know one.

I was wingin it as i went. And really those are all from like the first 3 pages so io couldnt easily go back and forth. Usually i would try to keep it down, but then again in the future i always try to make it less spamish, although in the end it usually ends badly.
