Also, would rosters add any improvement, say an RP bonus or something? or would they be just unnecessary flair?

Who's left for jerseys:

Benlandngdo (Nickname: Wolverines) (Colors: Red, Yellow, Black)

i'll get to work on these later, but help is always appreciated.

i can bring up a completely blank uniform if anyone wants to give making their own uni a go.

Hehe... sign me up if there's still room! Football (American, that is,) isn't very popular in Magnus Valerius, but if the RP goes well and Magnus Valerius does well in this cup, well, we can surely see a change in that. Football could explode into the scene in the Grand Empire.

But enough random babble. :p

Sounds good to me. :)

Oh wait, are you talking about WC29? Association Football is already popular in Magnus Valerius; I was talking about American Football. :p

Now, I should get crackin' on my roster. That will take work, along with the Olympic roster I also have to finish.

Actually I was talking about american football. I've got most of the groups filled and you're in one of those already filled groups. and you have some easy compitition

in my past experince i put N/A cause i thought it meant only football, but i am in f1 championship, wc29 and the aqualrk (sp) cherry cup.
