Atticus, I'll get on your uniform soon.

RD's comment in the 'Ratings Table' thread made me think about something I mentioned before: Is it alright if I just start matching up teams in games, like friendly internationals? Would you gentlemen prefer I set up another tournament?

Its all good for me. I didn't really post last time, because my nation was a Dominion puppet team, but this time, I'd probably try to work it a little more.

That said, as long as you will give me any help I need updating my team information page stats, you can set me up in any game you like.

I think I'll run an intermediary period of friendly games, something to establish rivalries and provide some additional stats. After that I think I'll run the various continental championships.

You gents can request to play any other team you wish, just so you know.

Atticus, this is a design for a previous uniform (the now defunct Dutch Provinces) with a different color scheme and crest. If it doesn't suit you I'll create one from scratch.

I'm up for this suggestion. Given that I changed my flag I'll need new uniforms though :lol:

Could you be a little more specific? What about the pants? Same color/same design on both?

I just don't really like the white with red outline pants. Maybe just the black pants for home, and white with green outline for the away games

If you get a chance, Porcu, can you help me put together a uniform, too?

And how do I set up my team, exactly?

I requested help from Porcu to create the team guides for my countries' teams. He responded with a expanation for each line on the guide. I figured someone else might be having trouble like me, and to save him time I thought I'd post it here.

Hope this helps someone as much as it helped me.

If it's OK with you, I'll just replace the kit I have for Ireland right now with the one above. I'll have the ranking table updated with your flag change too. Uniform looks great btw!

Well, I can just create a uniform from scratch for you, if you want. If, in looking through the previous pages of this thread, you like something I've already done I can simply change colors around and present you with a kit. If there is a uniform of a particular RL football team, let me know and I'll edit that kit so that it represents your nation. Or, you can do it all yourself.

As for your team, there really is nothing much to set up except for creating a national team information guide, as Telosan was so kind to post below.

I think I'd like something similar to Ulg's design for my national uniform. Red shirt w/ gold stripes and black pants with red/gold stripes for home. White shirt w/ red stripes and gold pants w/ red stripes for away. Dragon logo on the front, if that works.

And I've put up a team guide from what I could gather. Anything else I need, player lists and the like?

Player List is not necessary and the guide is filled out as far as you can at the moment, so good job there.

I'll post uniforms later today/tonight.

Alright people...

I'm scrapping the additional tournaments I was going to do with the national teams and instead refocus on club teams. I'll fully explain things later but I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm not going to go ahead with the continental championships I was planning earlier. The World Cup, Olympics, and Confederations Cup will still continue but I'm also adding in a club league for those who are interested.

Imagine the UEFA Champions League for a moment and then expand that worldwide. I'm thinking of having 2-3 teams per nation enter into the League and play. I'll post more tonight.

So now we have to make more club teams? I only have one for each nation. I like the continental chamionships.

Adding more club teams will make my TFL thread more interesting if there's more than 3 teams against each other all the time.

Could we do both? I guess like seasons, in-season games are the national teams, off-season games are the club teams. Alternating each type and then throwing in the special tournaments like the World Cup and Olympics randomly or every so many tournaments?

The issue with the continental championships is that some continents have a very small number of teams: Asia/Oceania only has 3 teams, while Europe has 15. We can do it I suppose just to keep things moving.

I do plan on alternating (kinda like what you said Telo) between the national teams and the club teams. Small international tournaments will take place during the Club season (the focus being on the club teams) and when that is done the main international tournaments (Confederations Cup, World Cup, Olympics) will take place.

And yes, Telo, you'll need to create at least one more club team for each nation. Though if you do that, adding them to mine, the Champions League will already have 8 teams. I plan on having the club league (Champions League) be open only to those who ask to have teams play. I'm not going to create 2-3 team guides and uniforms for nations such as Yshurak, USA (LA), or Paradise who I only use because I need them to meet the 32 team mark for international tournaments.

Now: I've been lazy (kind of, because I actually like the teams and follow AC Milan IRL) and have created my 2-3 club teams by copying directly from real life teams. I can do the same for anyone interested, or I can create unique uniforms for your team.

To Sed, TC, and Atticus: I think having a tournament between the nations of the British Isles would be cool once we all have our national teams sorted out. Double round robin, each team plays each other twice, one in their stadium, one in the opponent's. Six games, going by record and # of goals scored. Let me know if you'd be interested.

The British Isles Football League (BIFL), or in Sed's country's view, the Irish Isles Football League (IIFL) / Celtic Isles Football League (CIFL).

Sounds interesting. Might inspire other people to have regional tournaments, like an Iberian one or South African one.

Landsdallius - Below is the uniform I have but I was unsure exactly what you meant by the stripes on the pants so I created two different designs. Tell me whichever you like better and I'll have the same design on both home and away pants.

Atticus - Below is your updated uniform with the requests you made for the pants added in.
