I've been thinkin' some more and:
"
Welcome, ladies & gentlement, humans & non-humans to the Fantasy World Cup!! This year's event is co-hosted by Goblins and Kobolds - this is because they make excellent slaves and so have worked hard to reproduce this great event. I hope you will all enjoy it and good luck to every team!"
OK, this is the deal, I reckon it will be more fun to create a Fantasy Cup than jus' talk about it. So...what I want is for
anybody to
enlist their teams to this Cup so that I have enough to start it.
Since it would be too lengthy to duplicate a World Cup completely...all I ask for is 16 teams - and as a manager (you) can only have one team which constitutes of a single race or species. If you're interested, create a post in this thread with the post subject being "My Team" and talk a little bit about it.
eg:
My Team
Kobolds
Generally very weak, easily injured, quick on the break though, have a good amount of flair & skill, but are cowardly and have been known to desert the soccer pitch when under pressure.
However, 2 teams are owned by me - Kobolds and Goblins - since they are co-hosts...so I'm really asking for 14 teams.
Once I get all the teams sorted, I'll create a draw which will not have a group stage, but will go straight on to the eliminatories. Thus, it's like starting at the second round of a normal WC. 8 teams will play the other 8 teams initially; normal soccer rules apply - though with a fantasy twist.
As soon as I give out the list of who's going to play who, and in what order, I'll let the battling teams each create only
one post (at the time of the 'match') detailing their strategies. I'll then decide, adding commentaries, who wins.
Firstly, though, the simple thing - enlist your team!! I'll give more information later on...
