As you know Second Round onwards scores are TGed 24 hours before posting to this thread. You can also get your Group Stage results 24 hours before they are posted to this thread by going on IRC and having the luck to find me.

If you RP in U21WC12 you automatically get a space reserved. The list will be added when U21WC12 finishes. Meanwhile people who aren't playing/gonna RP in U21WC12 can signup here. I'm posting it early because even cups tend to be harder to get players for.

All 6 styles are available. Please choose one when signing up.

The 5 fixed styles

AOA [All Out Attack]

ATT [Attacking]

NOR [Normal]

DEF [Defensive]

AOD [All Out Defence]

and the very random and suicidal [unless you have a high rank]

KAM [Kamikaze]

These styles effect how many goals are scored in the match, the more defensive the two teams the lower the goals and vice versa. Of course Rank plays an important role here.

Any questions can be posted here, as well as suggestions and comments. I'd like to improve the cup and what better way than asking the players for their ideas.

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE PRAYING2GOD SOCCER ASSOCIATION

We are officially withdrawing our U21 team from any future international competitions because the U21WC is a sham and a mockery and is a disgrace for a soccer tournament.

Gaian Ascendancy: ATT

We'll probably rp some as well. =^^= Even if we lose alot, it'll all be for fun, and we stand by that.

We would like to change from ATT to DEF, because we did quite well with it under Maserrat. Maybe this will be our tournament...

Nah! :)

Well we don't plan on doing well anyway, but we will true!

I thought I would try this before kicking on our national team. Most of our national team is, in fact, under 21 anyway :D

You lost to Krytenia? :p

How did you guess?

Do I get a prize? Say...5 points in the next group stage?

I'll settle for a muffin. :)

Here is a muffin in the shape of a star, it has 5 points.

lol

I'm going to frame it. :D

Are these in order of rankings? If so I'll be very happy. :)

If not, I'm keeping this box of freshly baked muffins.

OOC:

I want a muffin!

BTW, when is the thread going to be started? Suspense is killing me! Maybe I should get life support then?

Usually at the end of WC qualifying, so there's a bit of a wait. Guess I'll just have to get through losing there before I start losing here. ;)

OOC:

Same! My first World Cup, as such.

Can't wait to get the roster done.

OOC:

Ditto that Kaz, no idea how bad I will suck in this U21WC.

(my 1st as well)

OOC:

My ultimate goal is to get past the league stage, but I amn't expecting anything!

So I will just RP to the point where its verging on spam, trying to get more ratings...but never actually spam.

We'll see! Good luck, and keep watching NSF1! By the way, we need sponsors :D

I've been in (in one form or another) since U21WC4. I can still remember my first game - a 2-1 win over Ebon Hawk. Then I drew with then-champions Jeruselem, which was even better. Then the competition gave birth to my bogey team - Bedistan. I'll beat them some day...hopefully.

I'm thinking of starting around the time of the playoffs, as not many people will be involved in them.

Sounds like a plan... there won't be any critisism in THIS tournement will there?

Critisism?

Just saying for people like Vilitia to not critisize anyone for little things like mistakes or mix-ups. :confused: :( :eek: :rolleyes:

Vil is pretty annoyed about the randomness of U21, it tends to screw him over the most, mainly because he has 2 teams, ergo twice the screwedness.

I think Vil hacked into my account... starting a thread under my name.

Nice spread.

I am going to try something different for the first time, but I am going to go with AOA for this cup, and see how that goes.

Just curious... does a AOD team actually have a chance at winning?

Have you met Rejis?

Have you met Rejis?

No, should I have?

(Goalie for high school soccer team, best defence is always key)

BTW, 32 teams is enough to start eh?

No, should I have?

Rejistanians love their defence like the French love surrendering. AOD has given them Three Under-21 Championships, which isn't too shabby.

Wow, never knew AOD could be so productive.

Uh, total? what does the chart mean?

:confused: I'm so lost in the dark :confused:

I run 10 sims. Record the results. Post em.

Could TG me the meaning of it all? Is it just to determine rank?

It's just TnUI testing the formula to be used for the up-coming cup. It's being tweaked all the time.

The ranks are determined by the levels of performance and RP in the previous cup or (maybe) two. I can't remember it exactly.

Thanks... at least now i have a vague idea what's going on.

wow, that has to be the best my team has ever looked on a table before the actual thing. Wow :D

And probably one of the worst for me. I'm getting the feeling it's going to be one in ten. :(

This thing is closed and ready to roll right? the signups are done?

Won't start until WC Quals over.

Bumping this one up... just so it isn't forgotten.

Kylaai AOA replaces Kipto-Mare KAM.

The Euroslavia Chromas wish to participate.
We choose DEF, that is, if there's room left. :)

And probably one of the worst for me. I'm getting the feeling it's going to be one in ten. :(

At least you have one more than I do. =oo=

Nope, but the next signup should be up soon.

I feel special, only 3 AOD teams in the tourney. All alone on defence... (what if 2 AOD teams play... won't the score be like 0-0?).

(what if 2 AOD teams play... won't the score be like 0-0?).

That is the general idea.

I thought the whole point of AOD was to practice your wall-building skills (i.e. just in front of the goal). Remember, two parts sand to two parts cement, or something like that...then add water!

AOD fixed :D

FIXED????? More like screwed over!

I fail to see anything wrong with RPR Formula 134.7

How did I go from a 1 in the 6 column to a 0, then a 0 in the Total column? This is getting very confusing.

Each sim is random.

Don't mind the n00b, but what does the table mean? I assume having 1 in the 7th position is...um...bad...but otherwise I'm slightly clueless.

10 sims of the entire tounament with the top 8 from each sim recorded.

bah, I liked the previous table. this one doesn't look to friendly :/

I forgot, but its starting when WCXXI second round starts right?

I added start times to the first post 1 or 2 signups ago.

Oh lol, I have not looked at the first post since I first read the thread. :X ><

You lost to Krytenia? :p

LOL

Your U21 are gonna die. Beeyatch.

That wasn't meant as a derogatory comment towards you. What it really means is 'Why are you saying the competiton is unfair? Is it because you lost to Krytenia, and if so, :p.'

So.. uh, when does my losing streak officially begin? =--=

Now!

Actually in my latest sim.

..and who won the First place sim? =^^=

Vil

As an old inactive geezer that is trying to become active once more it nice to see that the World Cup is still around. Atleast one thing from the good ol' days is still around. Good work!

Heh if you ever get into an Under-21 3rd-Place Playoff with me, you're gonna lose. 4 times i've been there, and 4 times I've won them. Having said that, if you meet me in a Semi-Final, well, be prepared to win as I've lost all 4 of the 4 Semis I've been in :D
