(Please address your questions, suggestions, comments, etc. here and also post rosters and competitors. If you are using your NSWC football team, please say so so I can use your post-WC35 rank. RPing has no effect on results. Dice, simple spreadsheet scorination, NSFootySim 1.2.4, and Oliverry's Hockey Scorinator will be used. For the spreadsheets, a minimum result is set and a range of possible scores is multiplied by a random number (0-1). The random number is bell-curved ((RAND+RAND)/2).)
