Out of pure bordem I have decided to do a Middle-Earth Football Tournament. It will be done World Cup style. 8 Groups, 4 Teams in each. Top two will move on to the Quarter-Finals and from there on it will be in knock-out format.
All matches will be simulated in Fifa 2k6, and results will be posted with highlights. (I'll have a video of the match if people want.)
Here are the teams (In no paticular order)-
- Gondor
- Shire
- Mordor
- Numenor
- Rivendell
- Lothlorien
- Bree
- Arnor
- Angband
- Alqualondë
- Belegost
- Dale
- Erebor
- Mirkwood
- Rohan
- Moria
- Gondolin
- Grey Havens
- Nargothrond
- Valimar
- Valmar
- Vinyamar
- Woodhall
- Barrow-Downs
- Old Forest
- Fangorn
- Isengard
- Tol-In-Gauroth
- Ephel Brandir
- Doriath
- Crickhollow
- Goblin-town
I shall put up the groups and fixtures tomorrow. (The teams used for simulation will be picked at random before each match. Brazil will not be used because Fifa 2k6 has a bad habit of over-rating them. Only International teams will be used.)
Thoughts? Comments? Feedback? Should I go ahead with this?
(And also let me know which team you're supporting! ^_^)
NOTE- For the highlights I will change the player's name to someone from that region in Middle-Earth. (Some teams will have random players if nobody from that area has been named)
EDIT- I meant soccer. (Just clearing it up if anyone gets confused)
