What is "NS Bowl?"

The NS Bowl is the supremacy in American Football. It's a World-cup kind of tournament where 12 teams take part into a tournament where the champion wins the NS Bowl. If there are more than 12 teams involved, those who didn't qualified for the playoff part of the last NS Bowl plus the new sign-ups will be running a qualify to know who will be in the present NS Bowl.

Does this clarifies your understanding of the NS Bowl competition?

East Lithuania would like to join

I'm working on a good scorinator now. I was going to make one for my domestic college league anyway. I plan on using a bonus for the team ratings, and a very small roleplay bonus as well.

Kylaai will join the NS Bowl II

We are looking for atleast another team who wants to be involved in this.

You can always add my puppet, Marligantis, if you need more.

Actually, I'd be very interested in doing this.

Still open for signups.

Schedule and groups out on Sunday.

Add the Bowl Philosophers in.

IE Liverpool England sign up with a footie-turned-American football team. :P

I might as well try this sport too.

The Robotoplis Titans offically sign up.

Too late. The Bowl is already finished! Sign-up for the third edition will start soon!
