[b][size=120][color=red]New to the World Cup? Read This[/color][/size][/b]
Welcome to the longest-running sports competition in Cybernations!
All you have to do is say [i]"<nation> signs up"[/i]. You can make it more polite or impressive than that, of course, or even RP the sign-up, but that, simply, is all that is required.
If this is your first Cup, [b]you may only sign up with [color=red]one[/color] nation[/b]. A second nation, known as a 'puppet', may be signed up in later tournaments. Puppets need to declare their status as a puppet, as well as be confirmed as such by the 'master' nation.
[color=#008000][size=150][b]Introducing: The World Cup[/b][/size][/color]
[size=90]The [b]Cybernations World Cup (CNWC)[/b] is a tournament for any CN nation who signs up. The CNWC is about to start its first competition, and your nation can take part!
Scores are generated using 'scorinators' - usually either a Java program, an MS Excel (or similar) spreadsheet, or another custom-made program - which use random numbers, weighted by ranking and RP bonus to produce the scores. Note that for this one xborate 0.3.2 will be used.
It is encouraged for Nations to RP - roleplay - their matches, team rosters, players and such. Good RPs will help raise your chance of winning. [u][b]Please note: A lot of RPs does not guarantee goals or wins, but your chances are improved of this happening.[/b][/u] i.e. Two debutant, non-ranked, nations play each other. One has RP'd a few times, the other has not. The nation who has participated should have the better probability of victory, but still has a chance of a Win, Loss or Draw.
RPs can be Team Roster announcements, fan comments, press conferences, media stories, anything about the game, or even other situations, as long as you've kept to the score as posted by the host(s).
