@itisme:
Getting three players on a team is challenge enough for some of the smaller countries! Let's leave five-member teams for the future!
Btw, homerpc is registered and will be on one of the US squads.

@zulu_warrior
I am glad you're still about mate! After the last thread you posted here, I thought ZE would have exiled you to Botany Bay!
You are on our team, mate. Welcome aboard!

Thanks Zulu
Its always a pleasure to play against u  

So its last day and we have ONLY 2 more players to find...


Aus has 1 extra player ( Where we will adjust it? I reckon host should ask all 5 if any1 want to represent SA,CIS or USA4)

Iran has 1 extra player (Ready to join another team, waiting for reply to choose SA,USA or CIS)


SA & CIS has 1 less player
USA has 2 less players

If you are lacking a few players can teams be based on % for points VS. number of win/losses.

I am trying to find 2 US players, I hope we will get a positive response


Its just my personal opinion that all teams should hv equal number of players as un even teams creates a litlle mess, so while we can recruit players we should find them.

If we can't then host will find some way

Only 1 player left now  

@host

pz assign captains to all teams before Draws...a lot of new players so there should be 1 to guide them
Any player who has played Tourney 1 will be a good choice in a team

As in Nations tournament I, the tie-breaker, after points, will indeed be W-L percentage due to the different number of players on the teams.

Now Aus player will have to choose from SA or USA if they wish so

As the registration is not complete, neither are the teams.
However, I have the following "captains" listed:
1. UK2 - Yiannakos
2. Spain - Servechilled
2. PAK-Iran - Chwaqasahmed
4. Canada - Bonne Chance
5. Romania - Klimtkiss

For other teams, I would like someone who speaks English well and is committed to this tournament.
For USA1: perhaps itisme can fill this role though I have no problem with any of the other three members.
For USA2: Oldman69 or Pokhra?
For Australia: perhaps Kev Howlett as he is the only one with Nations1 experience?
For S. Africa: Neftari or possibly Saurus
For Germany: perhaps Steelerhead?
For Holland: perhaps Achilles57 or possibly Negrita8?
For CIS: Blokhin or Maidann?
