"Work is the curse of the drinking classes."

OOC: Like I mentioned in the other thread, this is purely a simulation of what I envision a World Cup to be like. While everything will be posted in this thread to provide you all with an idea, there will be specific threads where updates go, reports go, etc. when the real thing starts, just so you all know. I also plan on updating the scores and my reports, at least, twice weekly.

“Good evening and welcome to ‘Football [or Soccer, I can change this to whatever is more desirable] World: Your daily football update!’ hosted by the PBC. My name is Aleksandra Stasov from the Russian National Nightly News.

“Nervous anticipation and anxiety gripped players and fans alike as WUFA, the World Union of Football Associations [this too may easily be changed to whatever is desirable], announced earlier today the updated world rankings and the group stages for the upcoming World Cup tournament, hosted by Russia.”

“Here is a look at the current world standings…”

*Music jingle as various teams and spots are read out loud by another commentator*

[^ I do plan on creating a picture table for this, just to spice it up a bit]

“Groups were also announced and there was much speculation as to which group would be coined as the “Death Group”, though this year it appears teams have been spread out evenly. Group E, however, has three teams in the top 12, including the number one team in the world: New Harumf, and promises to hold plenty of high-octane action.”

Group A:
Germany
Telosan
Empire of the Romans
Haiti

Group B:
Porcu
Russia
Catholic Europe
Kasynia

Group C:
Metz
Marslava
Draxis
Alexanderhaven

Group D:
Holy Roman Empire
Assassination Nation
Dutch Provinces
Konosha

Group E:
United States of America (Los Angeles Section)
New Harumf
Ulgania
Yvelinais Republic

Group F:
Terrel Fen
World Military Dominion
Great New France
Paradise

Group G:
Al Qalaa
Lambda League
Ireland
Çerdonč

Group H:
Yshurak
Huesca
Confederate States of America
Eleytheria-Duo

[^ Same as with the world rankings]

“Host nation Russia has plenty of work ahead of them in Group B but coach Boris Filatov (NRE, you can of course change this) had plenty to say about his team’s chances…”

“…We have a young team, one with plenty of energy and potential. Compare that to our competitor Porcu, for example, who is mostly characterized by tough veterans of club play…The biggest concern for me is making sure that we are disciplined. A very strategic team like Porcu will always capitalize on mistakes and penalties…We need to be focused and determined, but I have no doubt as to the ability of our players. Russia will be proud.”


OOC: This is not really out of character, as the whole tread is a mixture of both, but ah well...Please DO NOT post in this thread. I do indeed want feedback and if you could post it in the first thread, that would be very much appreciated. Again, this is in no way a final format for the world cup but it shall act as a basic guideline. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please, by all means, post them, but in the other thread...

[Because updates, interviews, reports, etc. will be separate from the actual scores and results the other threads (updates, reports, etc.) will probably be filled more than the actual result thread.
