I think we're due for another edition of what the ancient Chinese referred to as the Global Cup Championships Trophy of Icing Sport With Hockeyness... I'd be happy to host again, and in the meantime let's have signups and other hosting expressions of interest here, mkay?

Qazox will be back to Defend It's title.

(That sounds good!!! :))

in

Mallatarsland will have a go. :)

Might as well try to win this one whilst it's still young :p

Having only recently colonised land after years as sea faring nomads, The Platypus People would be glad to send its up and coming team of young hockey stars to make a name in the world for our fledgling nation.

Kura-Pelland are in!

Lovisa in

Oh, why not... just for a change of pace.

The Monastic Ice Hockey Federation will send a team of skating monks from the arctic monasteries, who will have trained on a 'puck' of leftover dried lentils from last year's Lenten fast.

The Valerian Imperial Hockey Association states:

The Valerian Empire is in!

Would want to join, but I don't know a thing about sports RPs. How would this one go?

The United States of Philimbesi National Team is in.

Would want to join, but I don't know a thing about sports RPs. How would this one go?Like most sports RPs (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/sports_roleplaying.html), the hosts will post scores, and you RP how the matches went.

Some of this (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/world_cup_faqs.html) might also be useful (though it was written to be specific to football/soccer).

Any guesses on the OOC timeframe of this tournament?

If it were up to me, by February.

Once again due to my RPing inactivity I've missed out on a bunch of stuff.

The Wombats on Ice sound like fun to me. I'm in.

Hockey??

HOCKEY???

What the heck I'll give it a shot.

I envision the theme song going something like bummm... bumm... bumbumpitybump

The Icealopes are in it again, this time to out do their field counterparts

I envision the theme song going something like bummm... bumm... bumbumpitybump

It would sound similar to the Hockey Theme? I thought that was Kelssek's national anthem :P

We're in (this is going to be my last competition as Oliverry)

sign us up.

Yo. It's the first thing I'm doing since bringing back the nation, that should indicate how serious I am.

So how's about an updated sign-up list.. please?

19 to date, with 1 expressing interest in hosting (me)

Kelssek
Qazox
Taeshan
Mallatarsland
ESF
The platypus people
Kura-Pelland
Lovisa
The Archregimacy
Magnus Valerius
Brutland and Norden
Philimbesi
Plutoni
Green Wombat
Prux
Bazalonia
Oliverry
Corneliu 2
McPsychoville

Ad'ihan will sign up.

The South African Ice Hockey League shall gladly send its Nationale Mannschaft (National Team) to represent the Republic in the World Cup.

Well, because I feel like it, if nobody else is going to join I'm going to run this bitch, mostly because I know if I do it then it'll get done.

That's 21 teams and do I hear a hosting bid from McPsychoville?

Squornshelous signs up, and threatens to bring Petr Crzjgrdlwldiwdc back from the dead to coach.

Well the newly founded IHFNS (Ice Hockey Federation of Communitiy of NoShitia) will be honoured to take the part in this competition. Although out national team is set up only from amateur players (mostly 14 yer olds who want to earn some money, apart from selling lemonade on the streets) they will do their best to represent their national symbol, which is, coincidently their national animal Clean Toilet.
And they will take shiat from no one!

EDIT: If we are allowed to be part of competition we shal submit the list of players.

The Principality of Wezleana would like to enter.

Dannistaan would like to try it's luck once again.

The tiny nation of Krasslor has begun a search for the twenty best hockey players in the country, and the entire process will be aired on television to raise funds for the team's travel expenses.

Any Idea when this might start? The WORLD CUP is going to overshadow it soon.

Fuck knows. I don't have the time to host this, I just wanted to bait someone else into doing it.

And that will be new how?;)

The Neue Schottland Ice Hockey Federation announces its interest in joining the world cup.

Bai Lung will be making its debut this year.

The Dictatorship of Cave Johnson will be making its official rp debut this year.

With the organisation's collective ego currently out of control, the Candelaria And Marquez Amateur Field Hockey Association could send a cold and embarrassed team...

30 teams. Two more would make for a good number. I'll host if no one else wants to, and we can always delay it a bit to avoid a clash with the footy World Cup.

Qazox is on that list twice. Just FYI

Actually...it would be 30. Minus one Qazox brings it down to 27. add you and Dundonian and Quackmybush and it is 30 :D

well Quakmybush has won twice, so were coming back, hopefully.

Fie!, hoisted by my own petard. Which is apparently a small medieval bomb, so you learn something new every day.

In other news; christ, jolt's timeslippy today, isn't it?

Its been like that for awhile Candelaria :D

hey if it isn't too late, i might give it a try,
if it is too late, then oh well, i guess next time

Assuming I haven't double-counted again it's 31 now. Please also note that shooting opposing players with sniper rifles will result in a game misconduct.

I think that Turkemimbeliminstein was shooting itself, and that isn't a game misconduct. IF you're desparate for 32 teams Sign Sativaville up (my puppet).

I can't RP under that name anymore (some dumb jolt thing) and if a legit 32nd team signs-up, just drop them.

Logo unveiling disguises bump for one more participant.

Eighthgraderistan, as Qazox NEW puppet would like to join this august tourney.

Qazox OFFICALLY confirming Eighthgraderistan as a puppet nation.

at the rate we're going, who knows

Eighthgraderistan, as Qazox NEW puppet would like to join this august tourney.

Oh God, let's hope we're not delayed that long in getting this thing going. ;)

I'll take Eightgraderistan as replacing Sativaville. Draw will be up in the next 24 hours.

Yes it is.

I've only just realised this, but Ad'ihan DID sign up on page one. And was never included in the list. Which is why I totally forgot about this. Bad Kel.

Oh... Christ...
