[OOC THREAD (1ST IBA FCL)] • [IC THREAD (1ST IBA FCL)

Hello, and welcome to the 2nd IBA Football Champions League signup thread. In a world increasingly divided, we all come together for a huge international football (also called "soccer") club tournament. Regardless of whether your team is the most winning team in your domestic league or just a bunch of amateurs who just have time to kick a ball, you are welcome here as long as you are a member of the IBA at the time of this thread going up.
Having a puppet who is also a member of the IBA? You are permitted to sign up all of them as long as they are all members of the IBA. You can submit up to 4 teams per nation (regardless if it's a master or a puppet), and a hard limit of 10 teams per user (a master nation and a few puppets combined). Teams who play in multinational leagues are permitted, but please specify where they are located in your lore for puppet-counting reasons.
Because I don’t wanna be overwhelmed with many teams, a hard limit of a total of 192 teams will be set. But we can go ahead with fewer teams, last FCL had 132 teams taking part.
This tournament will be divided into three phases. These phases have been named “Seeding”, “Qualification” and “Cup”.
MATCH DATES
The cutoff for the Qualification Phase happens at around 21.00 CET. Results will come in due time, as provided by the Qualification host, Darkmania.
No hard dates have been set as of the presentation of this, but I hope to get the Qualification done by Easter.
