Time for the 2017 Wintrean Games! All nations welcome for (almost) all sports.

First scheduled games will be the Soccer Tournament! All nations that wish to submit teams just post below the following:

Nation name:

Team name:

Any information you wish:




I will use a random number generator to 'judge' the quality of your teams. Don't worry though, even the lowest ranked teams can still perform miracles! So step right up!

Rules

1. I will use this program, xkoranate, to simulate matches. I will then write a story detailing the results of the match. This will go on through the legs of the Tournament (size depends on number of teams) until the Finale,
 where the winner will be decided!

2. My word goes. Full stop.

Nation Name: Intelligeneria (https://www.nationstates.net/nation=intelligeneria)

Team Name: Intelligeneria Intellectuals

Info: The Intelligeneria Intellectuals are the football team of Intelligeneria. The public refers to them as the IntFooties, to distinguish from other national teams with the same name in other sports, and they are the most popular sports team in Intelligeneria. They compete in various competitions, throughout regions that Intelligeneria has a relationship with.

Unfortunately, the team is so bad, they usually win nothing, and so most of them have to have a secondary job to pay the bills. They decide to try their luck and enter as many competitions as possible, but know they will probably do terribly. They're all quite intelligent, who spend more time studying soccer theory than training. They also call it football, and aren't very well financed, as Intelligeneria doesn't spend much financing their sports teams. Luckily for them, the public, though avid fans, understand the team's plight, and don't have high expectations.

OOC: Can I play, despite not being a citizen?

Nation name: Pogglind.

Team name: Hinton Hounds.

Any information you wish: They have a German Shepherd named Bucks as their mascot. He's getting fairly old, and the Hounds are hoping to show him one more victory before he retires.

Nation Name:The United Acarian Empires

Team Name: Imperial Eagles

Info: The Acarian Imperial Eagles is the professional national football team in Acaria. While football, isn't the national sport of Acaria, it has gained popularity in the 1960s and has become a career for many athletes. The logo contains a double headed eagle on it.

Come on guys! What kinda tournament has 3 teams? :]

Nation name: Geramundo

Team name: Skyhelm Mountaineers

Info: All members of the team happen to be right-handed, not that it matters in a game played with feet.

Nation Name: Penguin Dictators

Team Name: the Penguinia Patriots

Info: While the Captain of the team is a native Penguinian, all team members were imported from the nation of Bandicoosha.

Nation name:Crushita

Team name: The Most Holy Soccer Team

Any information you wish: This year Crushita has sent its best and brightest!
So Priests.
Lots of priests.
Really, really dumb priests.
Please paint a potato on the ball so they will go after it.
And don't say this is a soccer game because they don't know what soccer is and will assume its heresy.
