Figured there's no point going balls deep into the World Cup activities until at least the Premiership has been decided, which would allow for a few weeks for the usual candidates to hastily hash together a poor excuse of a write-up that they couldn't be bothered to do but decided to waste a place in signing up for the BANTS. Still at least we won't have random cunts popping up asking to join like we used to get whenever a network game or Fifa club was being discussed. Anyway, there's your intro.
Sure you all know how a sweepstake works, I sure hope I do because I've never run one before, but basically this thread will basically just be to whack the rules up (of which I'm literally just about to go and try and find a thread on the old forum and steal them) and then wait for 31 other people (because it's only fair I do a write-up too, unless anyone objects) to say I Do and we can get the ball rolling. Whilst I go and do that, you can amuse yourself with this;
Yes, I do realise that attempting to occupy you with a .gif of an Asian in a pink dress who turns into some sort of giant swollen vagina with a tail rolling down a hill to send a truck off a cliff is futile when I'm not actually posting the thread until I've researched the rules but I had no other way to introduce it.
Right so basically I've gone and looked at a few threads and basically they had fuck all useful. So I guess I'll have to wing it.
I'll wait for 31 (or 32 if someone gets shirty about me taking part) people to confirm they're taking part and are willing to produce a somewhat decent write-up for the next topic which will almost act as our forums introduction to the World Cup period on the forum. Similar to how many people do FM write-ups, make it bright, witty, colourful, insightful, there'll be a diverse mix as we have a lot of keen writers on here as well as a lot of people who think they're witty. As well as this write-up, I think it'd be a decent idea to theme the forum as best we can (idk if we can change colour scheme or add features), so that'd involve changing avatars and signs to represent the colours of the country you've been allocated in the sweepstake.
I think I've explained it pretty clearly, in truth it's not too difficult a concept but I'm rambling, so I'll end it as only I know how; cheap pop
