I am organising the first Pop-Pop WorldCup !!! The WorldCup is a competition between 4 teams (countries) made out of 3 players each. I have made a webpage with the rules and gameplay grids...

(url="http://"http://users.skynet.be/bk288494/poppop.html")http://users.skynet....494/poppop.html(/url)

First tournament will start when 4 teams are set-up. Teams are made on a first come, first slected basis. One team per country only. To join, see webpage for instructions.

I understand there are some concerns on how teams are formed for this tournament and that the first come, first selected method might not be the most appropriate to form strong teams.

For this first Pop-Pop WorldCup I suggest we keep it simple but will accept:

• Regional teams (e.g. US States, Benelux, Scandinavia, Asia...) or Clans/Guilds teams
• You can join the tournament by submitting an entire team (3 names)- so you can go over the selection process yourselves.

This is the first tournament I am organising, if successful I already have a few other ideas:

• Extending the WorldCup to maybe 8 teams divided in two groups of Four. Top two teams of each group would then meet in semi-finals, then final.
• Having a Manager per country / region in charge of recruitment and selection of his best players. This will hopefully raise the level of the tournament.

Your thoughts???

ROFL Sweden is listed in the example thing I didn't know we were such a great nation in pop-pop gaming.

Didn't you know that, Desert-Rat? That's probably because I'm better than you.

Just go from an assumption - as Scandinavian countries have the higher internet usage in the world -must be that there are a lot of Pop-Pop players (I played against one Swedish last night but can't remember the name :frown: Anyway, would be really nice to have a Swedish team!!!
