Michael McBride Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 (edited) Alright ladies and gents... it's time for another soccer tournament. Using my sweet XBOX 360 and even sweeter FIFA '10, I want to have the first Cup of Nations. I plan on making this a semi-monthly event, something to get everyone excited and some national spirit in CNRP. So here's how the team selection works. This tournament is going to be devised exactly like the World Cup. 32 teams, eight groups, group stage and then knockout rounds. Using FIFA '10 I can use any team in the world, so that'll be cool. When you sign up, please list your CNRP nation and what RL countries your nation encompasses. If we get only one from each area, then you'll all be the national teams. If we get more than one from anywhere, you'll be randomly assigned teams from your country's area. Also note the CN soccer experience. If you've participated in Botha's World Cups, let me know. You're more likely to get a better team from your country at that point, though it doesn't guarantee it. I won't have my nation play unless we need one more team. Otherwise, let's have some fun.

Michael McBride Posted May 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 (edited) You three are accepted. Only four more minimum needed before we can have a 16 team tourney. I'm going to check right now if there is any size between 32 and 16 just in case. EDIT: Nope, either 16 or 32... so I might cut it off at 16, but we'll see.
