Stay tuned for (most likely) tomorrow's report on the rumors involving the Lothlorien, Rivendell, Misty Mountains, and Anduin squads.

Let's beat Boro more than 2:1 this time just for the sake of it...

I am not suicidal this time.

EDIT: Oh, and being the boffin 'in charge' of the spreadsheets the last time I participated, I shall volunteer said services again (under the 'ArdaCup.com Stats Report' tag.)

I will play, though my time may be somewhat limited, I will do my best to keep me roster up to date.

Boromir88 · 06-12-2011, 08:24 AM

Woo Nilp and Morm! Glad both of you could come back and join in.

Phantom, would it be possible if we don't hear from Eomer by the end of the week could my vote change to Nilp?

Seconding Boro!

Btw. all of you new to the game, don't get scared by the different analysis on the teams beforehand in the "storyline-thread". It just feels like me and Boro are horses that have been left out to the grassland from the barn after a long winter for the first time...

We will be writing a lot of stuff during the tournament but we have no special knowledge pertaining to the actual game mechanics (otherwise we would not be able to compete in the phantasy-game). Later on, when the games start, tp will send us the results of "our games" (games we're going to report on) after we have done our own team-adjustments for the round in question.

Also, I'm calling for you all to come up with your own commentaries into the storyline-thread. Come up with a blog, a picture agency, a news network, a gossip-magazine, whatever you come up with. (look for the example of Nilp!). It is not that only certain people are allowed to take a bigger role in there. On the contrary. The more voices, the merrier games we'll have!

phantom will be releasing the final rosters (and hopefully the groups as well) pretty soon and then it should be easy for anyone to start speculating... And even before that, send your reporter to make the all inclusive interview of any star-player you wish!

And anyway, it is also perfectly legal (and what I think most people do) to just follow the official results and ignore all the speculative sports-commentary, and just update your phantasy team every once in a while...
