scoop 3,426 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) (I know I'm not the WC commish or anything but from what I can tell, this hasn't gotten underway yet so I'm gonna get this out there so people can apply; if someone already has this under control go ahead and stop me.) With the World Cup supposed to start today, I'm looking for people ASAP. Someone has apparently been offered the WC commish position so I won't be making any decisions but this thread can still be used to apply. As a GM, you'll be tasked with: - Selecting a roster of players to represent your country ASAP - Helping to generate discussion with your selected team-mates in both your respective team forum and in game threads. - Submitting lines for each game (If you have no prior experience of this, then a teammate or the World Cup Commissioners will be more than happy to assist). Team List: Team Canada Team USA Team Scandinavia (Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Iceland) Team Western Europe (England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Germany) Team World (All other countries) Team Mercenaries (Any players not selected for the above five teams) Things To Consider: - A small TPE payment will be awarded to General Managers, providing an extra incentive for those thinking about applying for the role. - Primarily, we will be looking to have teams represented by General Managers that own players of the same nationality. - If you're someone with no previous management experience in the VHL, then a role as World Cup General Manager is a great way to introduce you to the basic concepts of managing a team. - The World Cup does not have a fixed start date as of yet but I am working on the spreadsheet right now and should have it up this weekend.

Advantage 2,891 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Gonna look at these soon. Since I'm Commish I can't really GM for Western Europe so we still need a candidate there. Thus far I have GM Candidates for: Canada USA World Scandinavia, Western Europe and Mercs still need candidates!

Devise 4,475 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Verner is likely on Scandinavia, and I don't mind GMing. I'll apply/snatch that role up. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/44469-s56-world-cup-gm-applications/#findComment-477077 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banackock 8,044 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I too will throw in the name for Scandinavia. It would be my 3rd time back for them I believe - grabbing gold the first time around! Wouldn't mind attempting to do it again!

Banackock 8,044 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Would be nice to start seeing more swedes and shit enter this league! Canada/USA are dominant all the time.
