Post your intentions to sign up here. Also, bids to host. Primary natives will have priority over inactive/transplant puppets at the hosts discretion if numbers need to be reduced. This post is also a handy sign-up for Krytenia, so EBWK applies. Nations Signed Up: 24/24 Krytenia Semarland Lindmark (puppet of Semarland) Farfadillis Ko-oren Tallaga la Falla West Guiana Audioslavia Vilita & Turori Mertagne Valanora Osarius Cosumar Austenersey Equestrian States Protectoria Ratastan Greater Watford Royal Kingdom of Quebec Starblaydia 95X Western Sunrise Islands Weimania Swilatia Host Bids: Semarland & Farfadillis Krytenia |

SEMARLAND AND FARFADILLIS - AOCAF 48 HOST BID HOST EXPERIENCE Semarland has not hosted any major cups, but has scorinated many domestic competitions ranging from football to handball, as well as some third-party scorinations on behalf of other users for other tournaments. Whilst this may discourage some voters from supporting this bid – Semarland will be joined by a senior co-host (Farfadillis) as well. Farfadillis has hosted a variety of football tournaments, including AOCAF Cup 38, Campianato Esportiva 5, Copa Rushmori 16 and Baptism of Fire 54. Farfadillis has prior experience to hosting AOCAF host and his hosting of a WCC-sanctioned tournament is also good proof that he is an experienced co-host. FORMAT Once signups close and we have the final number of participants, we will decide our format. Our preferred target of signups is 32 or 16, but we can adapt it to another number if needed. CUTOFF TIMES Semarland will cutoff groups from 7PM to 9PM UTC, Farfadillis will cutoff groups 12AM to 2AM UTC. This means a cutoff one day could be at 7PM but the next day be at 8:30 PM UTC, so posting before the earliest time possible would be advised. If you’re lucky, you may be able to find us on IRC (#nssport) so we can give you a more specific time for details. TIEBREAKERS Tiebreakers will be as follows: Points (obviously), Head-to-Head, Goal Difference, followed by playoff match (ICly a coin toss) RP BONUS The scale we will use is 0-1.5, which will be cumulative. SCORINATOR We will be using the latest version of xkoranate (0.3.3) with NSFS formula and xkorante style modifications. We are open to questions, so feel free to ask them! |

For the sake of numbers i'll include my never introduced puppet of Austeria http://www.nationstates.net/nation=austeria1 |
Posted by: 95X-Scottfire Aug 10 2015, 10:51 AM |
The tournament doesn't need puppets for the sake of numbers, it needs the defending champions! Yes, this is an official 95X sign-up. |
Posted by: Krytenia Aug 15 2015, 02:52 PM |
I've asked Valanora to conduct the host vote for this edition. I've made a preference for votes by TG, but I'll leave it up to the Elven One for the format of the vote. |
