Yes please, I'm in. It's been a while. I remember this, my first baseball tournament that got me into the baseball community and the WBC.

Signups updated! We are now up to 20 teams and have approximately 84 hours before the host vote.

[Nova Anglicana]

Since we have just one host bid and no signups for a little while, I’m going to go ahead and start the host vote a little early. All participating nations, except Super-Llamaland as the host bidder, and Pripet Socialist Republic, as a puppet of Northwest Kalactin, are eligible to vote. You will have approximately 48 hours to vote. You may vote once. Your options are below:

1. Accept the bid from Super-Llamaland
2. Re-open bids
3. Abstain

Please TG your vote to Gotalanda by noon EST (UTC-4) on Tuesday, June 23rd.

Do we have to delcare if we're a puppet if our main nation isn't joining?


Oh and In.

Starcom Starboys!

Signups will remain open through the end of the host voting, but any nations who sign up after host voting starts are ineligible to vote, as will the bidder(s).

Its still open, actually.

[Gotalanda]

I am ending host voting a little early because one of the results achieved a majority.

By a vote of 11 for Super-Llamaland's bid and one vote for re-open bids, Super-Llamaland is hereby awarded hosting rights for IBS XI!

I now turn all hosting duties and decisions over to them, including the option of accepting Starcom Racing's signup and/or keeping signups open.

Thank you to everyone who voted for me! Looking forward to a successful IBS.
It looks like we're at 22 signups right now, so I will be closing signups as soon as we get to 24 (after which the IC thread will be posted).

Royal Kingdom of Quebec U23 national team, the Grim Reapers, is interested!

Oh, Ninja'd, missed it by a minute.

[Super-Llamaland]

The group draw has been posted, as well as an updated schedule including cut-off times (which will be between 9-10 PM PDT; unfortunately, this is pretty late for a lot of IBS participants, but it's the best way for me to maintain a consistent cut-off time).

Also, just a heads-up, but I've seen multiple rosters including stadia with different park factors. It's definitely okay to RP your group stage matches as occurring in different stadia within your nation, but I would strongly prefer you stick to one park factor (if no default park factor is stated in the roster, I'll just take the first park factor I see).

[Super-Llamaland]

There's been a change in the schedule to account for the Group A playoff. Tomorrow will still be an off day, but July 5 will be used to score the one-game playoff between Northwest Kalactin and The Jovannic, with the Ro12 (and the rest of the playoffs) all being pushed back one day.

[Super-Llamaland]

Also, since the Ro12 is starting tomorrow, I'll need a third-party scorinator for my playoff matches. TG or PM me on Discord if you're interested!

Update: Found someone, thanks!

[Super-Llamaland]

Just a heads-up that all remaining games on the schedule have been moved up by one day due to every QF series ending in a sweep. This will happen again if both SF series end in a sweep.

[Terre Septentrionale]

I see a mistake with the scores provided by Northwest Kalactin. In game 1 I count 5 runs for my team but the final score is 4-2:
