[Gnejs]

I didn't get the response I was looking for in the NSwiki subforum, but Im thinking the "region's fauna thread" attracted so much interest, my thread got lost in the wind...

Anyways, I have started an articel about the gnejsian first division soccer league on NSWiki. It's called "Allgnejsan" and has so far been made up by only players native to Gnejs. It is extremely popular among the nations citizens, and are now looking to bring in players from all around the region. Would anyone be interested in having one of their players turn "pro" in Gnejs?

The Allgnejsan is made up by 14 teams, but so far I have only come up with 13 names:
*Briskeby BK
(Nickname: "Raconteurs". Last years winners and big favourite this year. From the town of Briskeby in Birka. A city with a "small town feeling" were the Raconteurs are the biggest pride and joy. Play here and you will be king. Inhabitants speak Norwegian as first language, but also master english and swedish.)
*FC Kejm.
(Nickname: "Dockers". Ended in second place last year. From the city of Port Kejm in Birka. FC Kejm is a good team, but has never been able to attract many fans. Play here and you will enjoy a serious team and anonymous "big city life". Largest city in Gnejs. Inhabitants speaks english as first language.)
*Finntorp IK
(Nickname: "Charlatans". From the city of Finntorp on Ecpatia. Top team for several years, although have never won. Big rivals with BK R?sunda and often spoken of as the "posh" alternative in Finntorp. The city of Finntorp is one of the biggest in Gnejs and located in the nations northern parts.
*BK R?sunda
(Nickname: "Raggamuffins". Classic "Working class team" which in recent years have become extremely popular. The "Hip" alternative these days, not only in Finntorp on Ecpatia, but all over the nation. Are known to have the best and loudest fans in Gnejs. Fierce rivals with Finntorp IK. Make it in BK R?sunda and you'll be a star all over the nation.
*IFK Hagen
(Nickname: "Daughters", abbreviated from "Daughters of Hagen". Classic team with several Allgnejsan victories. Known to have a very strong defensive side. From the city of Hagen, a big city located in ?ngby.
*Lokomotiv Esaias
(Nickname: "Prophets". "Middle team" for the last seasons. Native to the town of Albia in Vika. Albia offers beautiful sites from it's location right by the sea in the gnejsian "bible belt". The Prophets fans are known to be very loyal.)
*Erika FC
(Nickname: "Confederates", due to the nearness to the Confederation of Domnonia. Comes from the city of Erika in ?ngby. Typical "middle team" with ambitions to climb higher.)
*Stor?ngens IF
(Nickname: "Bohemians". From the nations capital of Gnejs City. Has been a middle team for several years, but later seasons have shown inprovement. Has a large fan base, but they usally only show their numbers in the derby against IFK Nordstjernan. The nickname Bohemians is said to come from the supporters inability so show up at matches. Gnejs City is a big city located in ?ngby. It is the nations political centre and also offers most aspects of modern gnejsian big city life. Inhabitans of Gnejs City speak swedish, english and norwegian.)
*FC Nova
(Nickname: "Libertines". From Port Kejm. New for the year and divides the gnejsian experts. 50% views them as standing no chance in the highest division, due to their low experience and young squad. The other half sees them as the most exciting newcomers in years. Has always attracted quite a big fan base. The derby against FC Kejm is something many kejmians look forward too.)
*Norrholmia
(Nickname: "Inquisitors/Big Brother". From the city of Norrholmia in Vika. Has been seen as a top team for several seasons, but has had trouble delivering. The nickname Inquisitors is a joke about the big amount of christians in the nations southern part. Big Brother is also a nickname of the town of Norrholmia, as it is the biggest town by far in Vika. Living in Norrholmia offers a calm city life experience. Inhabitatns speak mainly swedish, but master english.)
*Welmia IF
(Nickname: "Litt'lans/Yoyo's". Classic team, but new for the year. The nickname Yoyo's comes from the teams tendency to jump between the first and second division.)
*Euston Athletic
(Nickname: "Malingers". From the town of Euston in the nations most northern parts. Been struggling at the bottom for several years. The origin of the teams nickname is unknown. Known to have fanatic fans that shout loud and creative supporters' chant. Inhabitants speak english.)
*IFK Nordstjernan
(Nickname: "Explorers/Blues". From Gnejs City northern parts. Came in fourth last year and are aiming to improve this year. Fierce rivals with Bohemians and the Gnejs City derbys are considered the most intense.)


If interested, please post players name, position, what team you would like him to play for and any other info you might find usefull.

Thanks!

I know absolutely nothing about soccer (I am American, after all) but if you want an Antrian player, I can come up with a name and background and possibly pick a team, and you can just pick a position for them.

Perfect reason for the Antrian players to come here

Great! Im thinking a fast Antrian striker.. That would be something..

[Saidercray]

For the last IDUFC, I`ve written an article on Saidercray's national soccer team, including the names of the players. Feel free to take one or two of them.

And here`s the link: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/S...l_football_team

[Gnejs]

Great! Thank you!

I'm thinking Gareth Brownland (28) would feel at home in BK R?sunda. Many people have great faith in the Raggamuffins this year, but they have been found wanting in the goal scoring deparment. An experienced striker like Brownland would suit them perfectly. Also, seeing as Finntorp has a sister city in Saidercray I think it's a fitting match.

And perhaps IFK Nordstjernan could be something for Sean Mortey (24). They are aiming to improve their fourth placce from last season, and could use some young strong legs on the midfield. Mortey can look forward to living in the gnejsian capital, and playing in the extremely popular and packed Gnejs City derbys against the Bohemians

[Gnejs]

Ok. Done some work with the wikipage and made a few team pages. Feel free to check them out.

Oh, sorry. I forgot about this for a second...

Name: Av?n?? Os?rno (you can just type Avunai Osarno if it's easier, but it's spelled that way in Alv?sin)
Av?n?? grew up in Vorant, Esto, a suburb of Corico. He played on his university team, the East Point Seahawks (based in Kavert?l at East Point University) and the Anv?ln Hawks, which played in the IDU Soccer Championships last year. He is 24 years old.

If you need more, I can come up with more.

[Mikitivity]

Is there still time to create a player? I'd like to create somebody to play in the Gnejsian professional league.

Thats great. Just one thing, which team would you like him to play for? I'd rather not decide for myself (I do have my darlings among them )

We would be honured to have a player from Mikitivity! Just post some facts and which team!

The 07 season begins in april, but the transfer window is open all season long

[Antrium]

I was initially drawn to the Raconteurs because of the name (being a band that Jack White is in) and the Libertines. (another band, which makes me think that you're doing it on purpose, along with the Charlatans) The Explorers would be OK too. If you want to pick from those, please do. If not, I'll try to pick one

[Gnejs]

Both Raconteurs and Libertines are favorite bands of mine I also like the new bands of both Doherty and Barat from the Libs: Babyshambles and Dirty Pretty Things, although those names didn't really work as team nicknames

Im thinking Av?n?? would like it in Briskeby, so let's make him a Raconteur.

Sounds good. Out of those, the Raconteurs would be my favorite anyway
(I like anything even somewhat related to the White Stripes.)

Perfect. Briskeby it is. Check out their logo on NSWiki (I haven't gotten around to actually writing anything about them yet, but they did win last year!)

That makes two of us . And, just some trivia, the nicknames Litt'lans and Proclaimers (coming team) are also band names

Ooh. I thought maybe some of them were, but I didn't know them.

(You're Swedish...ever heard of these: Dungen, Peter Bjorn & John, The Knife or Love Is All?)

EDIT: And I'll look at the logo when NSwiki decides to work again.

You obviously have great taste in music. Dungen has been a favourite band of mine for several years. I'm really glad they have made it in the US, especially as they sing in swedish. If you have any questions about the lyrics, just ask. And if you like Dungen you should check out "Tr?d, Gr?s och Stenar" (Trees, grass and rocks). They are without a doubt Dungens biggest source of inspiration. I also love the Knife, have you listened anything to their latest cd? Peter, Bjorn & John are ok, but if you like their kind of music I would suggest a band called "I'm from Barcelona", and despite the name, they are swedish.

Yes. Stupid wiki. Was trying to put some info on the teams pages yesterday, but didn't get far.

Thank you
I wouldn't say Dungen have "made it" in the US, but their CD was released here. (EDIT: I know they have multiple CDs...I'm referring to Ta det lugnt. Don't want to sound like I haven't done research ) The critics loved it. (I read music reviews.) I only have Ta det lugnt but it's one of my favorite CDs. And thanks for the recommendation, I'll check that out.
And actually, I only have the Knife's newest CD. The other two weren't available in the US until late last year, so I'll get those later. Silent Shout is really, really good though.
And I've actually heard of I'm From Barcelona. Next time I get paid, I'll have to order that CD

...back to thread matters...

I did see your logo finally and it looks nice

You really should! They are very funny. The band consists of like 35 people. The cover of their first single was a "class photo". really funny. Ta det Lugnt is a great album. I especially like the track "Stockholm", or is that from another of their CD's? can never remember. Anyways, the lyrics is about how you miss living out on the country close to nature, but still choose "big-city-life" because of a need to "get away". It really sums up my own situation (living in Stockholm City, grew up on an island outside Stockholm) very well.

'''Jonas Mraz''' (born March 28, 1977 in Miervatia City) is a Mikitivity football midfielder.

I'm starting a NSWiki for Mraz. I know very little about football, but figured you could help.

Can he play on IFK Nordstjernan aka the "Blues"? BTW "Mraz" is Czech for "Frost" and Mikitivity's national color is "Blue". I figured he would be a huge hit both with Nordstjernan and also make the club the "adopted" favorite from Mikitivity, which would be a fun note to include.

Is he too old? Can we pretend he has played there for a few years, since graduating from Miervatia University? I've started a NSWiki for him, which you are also free to edit.

Thats sounds great. I love the idea of the "Blues" being a favorite among Mikitivians (Is that correct?) and the meaning of Mraz name and Mikitivity's national color makes it a perfect match! The name "Nordstjernan" translates into "The Northern Star", which in some way actually makes me think of Mikitivity

Concerning his age, nothing wrong with a little experience and I like the idea of Mraz playing a few seasons previous to this one!

A funny thing Is he will be team mate with one of our other international player, Sean Mortey from Saidercray! I can already see what the rival fans will nickname the team... L?gion ?trang?re!
