Proposal for football tournament - Groot Gouda - 08-23-2005
Okay, after the sports thread, here's my proposal:
All those interested in a sports tournament can report here. If we have a reasonable amount of nations, we can start the IDU Football Championships. The nations will be divided into groups. Depending on the amount of groups, the top X will continue into the next round, all the way to the final.
I will use the benelux football tournament system, which determined the scores by ranking. You take the worldwide rankings of each nation, and strip the rankings so that both rankings have the same amount of numbers. (so if one is 134.946th, and the other 58.238th, you strip the 1 so both are 5 digits). Then, each digit is compared to the one of the other. The highest one gets a goal. If the scores draw, none gets a goal.
So, in our example:
34946 = 0 0 1 1 0 = 2
58238 = 1 1 0 0 1 = 3
so the final score is 2-3.
Points in the groups are as usual: 3 for a win, 1 for a draw and 0 for a loss.
The PRoGG will host the tournament to save on flying trips accoss the IDU.
Update: We will play with national teams, not club teams!.
Participating nations:
Malabra
Antrium
Keeslandia
Mikitivity
Grosseschnauzer
Adam Island
DataGenesis
Lloegr-Cymru
Lawtonia
Wondervolle
Groot Gouda
Isles of Koster

Proposal for football tournament - Mikitivity - 08-23-2005
The Miervatian Reapers (representing Mikitivity) would like to enter the tournament, and as usual they're likely to be followed by a modest, yet insane fan base.
Proposal for football tournament - Adam Island - 08-23-2005
Adam Island is excited for the championship!
Proposal for football tournament - Grosseschnauzer - 08-23-2005
The Edie Ratters, champions of the most recent Schnauzerlands League season will participate. (The Schnauzerland League operates in all five scnauzer nations in the IDU, so it is a coincidence that the city of Edie just happens to be located in Grosseschnauzer proper. They defeated the team from Port Rose in Schnauzer Homelands for the title in a extra time shootout.)
Proposal for football tournament - Keeslandia - 08-23-2005
A capital idea. The soccer (football, futbol) fans of the Empire are a rowdy (but non-violent) lot and are tingling in anticipation.
Two questions: 1) Is this a national team or club tournament? I'm assuming nats, as you referenced rankings, but I just want to be clear.
2) What's the accronym for the IDU Football Assoc.? I.e., UEFA, CONCACAF, AFC, etc.

The Sivaris Wild Hares (from Antrium's new capitol of Sivaris) would love to participate

Proposal for football tournament - Lawtonia - 08-25-2005
The Free Thinkers of Lawtonia would be glad to participate even though we don't presently have football fields due to the fact we don't know yet where our country is located - but the fun is in the participating
