CNRP2 International Football League Signups


Louis XlV

Recommended Posts

I've got an itch.  An itch for FOOTBALL
 
After talking to Mogar, I've decided to start signups for an international cnrp2 tournament.  And before anyone says "But who are you!" I am Louis 14 and I've decided it's far more interesting for me to actually do a game like this than to do a nation roleplay.  This would allow me to have characters of multiple nationalities (with permission) to be able to have character-centric RPs with tons of people without being constrained or worried about nations, stats, war, etc
 
So, without further ado (Mogar will be down later tonight to help out!) I'm going to present to you the signup sheet and the rules.
 
THE SIGNUP:
 
CNRP2 Nation: (ie, "Principality of Tikal", "The Imperium of Japan")
CNRP2 Nation shorthand: (ie, "Tikal", "Japan")
CNRP2 National football team nickname: (ie, Las Aguilas, Samurai Blue)
CNRP2 football team kit color: (ie, yellow/blue or blue/yellow for primary and secondary, respectively)
CNRP2 football team playing style: attacking, defending, counter, tiki-taka, spreading, etc.  If unsure of unfamiliar with soccer/football, just pick aggressive or passive or neutral based on how it sounds
 
THE SIMULATION:
 
I import a custom league of all even players into Football Manager 2014.  Everyone gets an equal shot.  Then the season progresses (I'll be using MLS because that way we don't have to deal with the relegation nonsense) scores will rise or fall with players as they play well or play poorly.  This creates continuity from season to season and allows newcomers to come in with teams that aren't handicapped from having all the good ones taken.
 
After simulating three seasons in order to create a variety of teams that are stronger or weaker all randomly, we will begin the tournament.  If anyone whines about having a weaker team, just remember that anything can and will happen and there can be a dramatic turnaround from tournament to tournament.
 
In addition, since I don't play and I don't have a history here, I have no reason to be biased. :)
 
The tournament will run out like the FIFA Cup, essentially.  People will be put into groups, winners of the groups advance, and then single elimination from there on out.  There will also be a loser's bracket.
 
If there are any questions we can ask them in this thread.

CNRP2 Nation: Druk Yul
CNRP2 Nation shorthand: Bhutan
CNRP2 National football team nickname: Druks ("Thunder Dragons")
CNRP2 football team kit color: (ie, yellow/blue or blue/yellow for primary and secondary, respectively): Orange/Yellow
CNRP2 football team playing style: High pressure with an offside trap:
 
This maybe described as an attacking way of defending. Teams try to win the ball back as quickly as possible where ever it be on the pitch and as close as possible to the opposition goal. It does require the other defending players to push up at the same time as the pressure is placed on the opposition player. Thus, offside is often played to prevent an attack behind the defence and as the opposition player will be pressured to play the ball as quickly as possible (often a long pass) he will have less time to judge the accuracy of his pass making the offside trap even more efficient.
 
I don't know how this would be labeled in your sim. I'll let you select what you believe most closely emulates this strategy.

I guess this team won't win (and I'd not even expect it to participate, given circumstances), but if you decide they participate, feel free to tell me where they'd end up. Because I have no idea whatsoever.
