Banackock 8,048 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 The S74 World Cup tournament has officially come to an end. Team Nordic won gold, Canada the silver and our amazing, strong and YUGE team USA took home the bronze medal. I think heading into the tournament you always hold your expectations as high as you can because these tournaments are typically different than other systems we have here. Everyone plays the round robin, everyone has a fair shot, single game elimination for gold, silver, bronze. Looking back on the tournament, it was a lot of fun but we knew it was going to be a lot of fun. Heading into these tournaments, it's always my mission to be a little over the top and to try and spread the news and hype like it's going out of style. Usually these tournaments don't get quite the focus and attention that they should but they play a very fun role in the league, for the members and for a players career. Winning medals is always a fun accolade to add onto my GM'ing resume but I do it for the fun experience and to hopefully have fun with and cause a little fun for others. Firstly, thanks to @rory for helping with some line talks but mostly "playing" along with the shit talking and good times. He was 10/10 what USA and the tournament needed and was a lot of fun because at the end of the day, when we say we were joking and mocking Trump and the USA... USA NUMBER ONE. STOP THE COUNT. FRAUD. THIS IS RIGGED UNLESS WE WIN. At the end of the day, we lost but won. We were the 2nd best winners or best losers. Whatever perspective you want to look at it as. We were 1/2 teams to win games to receive medals which is better than losing to receive one I guess. I heard Costco was giving away silver medals if you bought their newest butterball turkey. Thanks to the rest of Team USA - especially to those who were a daily fixture in the activity to promote the WC and make the tournament more enjoyable. I'm not going to single anybody out. If it's you, you will know. ACTUALLY, HOLD UP. @Doomsday got too many penalties, but the man scored a hatty too. Talk about redemption?? It's always a pleasure leading teams in these tournaments. Thanks for putting up with my shit talk (and Rory's) and our mocking. This has to be one of the more fun tournaments lately and I appreciate you guys coming on board and putting an effort and time into make it more enjoyable for everybody. THANKS! LASTLY, thanks to the rets that made this tournament fun. We had some good chats in the general and a lot of fun shit talking was shared. At the end of the day, just remember we allowed @Spartan to have the first laugh so that the last laugh we got didn't sting as bad. We care about you that much, fartan. Thanks to the GM's - all of you and thanks to @fonziGG for running a good show, being active and always available and a very fun commissioner. IDK if the league would like for more stability in hopes that it offers improvement and structure to the World Cup (as well as lessens the load for them), but Fonzi would be an amazing permanent fixture similar to what we did with WJC. Spoiler thnx @Josh for simulating. I told you Gold = $25 Canadian Tire card. Bronze only gets you $5 Timmies that expires Nov 17.
