Although I do have to point out that, if we're going by geographical areas, the Netherlands is the smallest winner at 41k km^2, and it wasn't named. You could fit three Netherlandses inside Greece (131k km^2) and Czechoslovakia (128k km^2)! I did not mention Netherlands as a "small country, as their results in WC (3 finals, all 3 lost) and EC (winner '88) make them a real big wig.

Nekonishiki Banji 404 Posted June 14, 2024 Hello, players, it’s the very time of a new game. The deadline is over, no more changes, I had to set it up earlier, because I don’t have any weekend yet. The kick-off is in 3 hours. Are you already excited? As I read and saw on TV, there is already a great vibe in Munich, I remember when I had luck to be there in 2006, it was fantastic. Let me introduce the players of my two groups, as well as the line-ups you are all waiting for. A technical note – although I understand the reason of using “Turkiye” (Türkiye), due to technical reasons, I still will use the English name Turkey. Unless I will be pressured to change it. One more note – I don’t know my July work schedule yet, in June I will work in normal shifts already (except of today), so I think I will be able to send out the daily results after the 21:00 match, if I won’t, I’ll send you a notice here. The partial results after the kick-off will be posted only tomorrow, maybe separately, maybe only together with results of Day 2. Let’s go, here come the teams: Group B – Refioji Nekonishiki - Round 1 Koorifuu (Spain) vs Kimyama (Croatia) Koorifuu 1. Belgium 2. France 3. Turkey 4. Romania 5. Spain (R) 6. Slovenia (C) 7.

Refioji comment: The brothers have the same teams in Slots #2 and #9 Asapedroryu (Belgium) vs Nantonoyama (Slovakia) Asapedroryu 1. Germany 2. Portugal 3. Belgium (R) 4. Denmark 5. Switzerland 6.

Athenayama 1,199 Posted June 14, 2024 Group A Round 1 - Day 1 : Kuma Koma will score right from the start with Germany, his (R) team. We still need to find out if it will be 1 or 2 goals. Tanetakahiro needs absolutely Portugal to win to stay alive. However this result will come much later (on day 5 !) so we'll have to wait ! Kuma Koma Goal H Chain H Goal A Chain A Tanetakahiro 1.

Nekonishiki Banji 404 Posted June 15, 2024 Group B and E: Refioji Nekonishiki Actually there is "nothing to see" yet, it will be more exciting to see the standings after today's matches. Group E: Asapedroryu secured a win in #1, Nantonoyama has Scotland in #7 Group B: Krisachiyama has a win in Slot #3, Koorifuu a loss, in Slot #7, too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nekonishiki Banji 404 Posted June 15, 2024 Group B – Refioji Nekonishiki - Round 1 – Day 1-2 Koorifuu (Spain) vs Kimyama (Croatia) The players have positioned the losing teams well. Koorifuu’s (R) team is in good place, but Kimyama’s is at the best possible slot. Jarayama (Italy) vs Krisachiyama (Albania) Jarayama’s (R) team is winning in the furst slot. Krisachiyama has wins in Slots #2 and #3 and the losing (R) team is in safe place. Real goals can be expected tomorrow. Group E – Refioji Nekonishiki - Round 1 – Day 1-2 Jomojo (Romania) vs Jejima (Ukraine) Jejima’s chain will break in Slot #7 at latest, but there is a chance for #6. Sorry, but nothing more can be said yet. Asapedroryu (Belgium) vs Nantonoyama (Slovakia) The first green slot, both players have a win in #1, no goal, but a very good start. Asapedroryu has one more winner, Nantonoyama has two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athenayama 1,199 Posted June 15, 2024 (edited) Group A Round 1 - Day 2 : Kuma-Koma adds up wins like a nice neckless of pearls. Let's see how productive will that be. Tanetakahiro Gets his first win at the 5th spot. Overall the Hungarian player seems to be in a slightly better position up to now. Kuma Koma Goal H Chain H Goal A Chain A Tanetakahiro 1. Germany ® W - - Portugal 2. Denmark - - Netherlands © 3. Switzerland W - - England 4. Netherlands - - W Switzerland 5. Spain W - - Romania 6. Czechia - - Serbia 7. Ukraine - - L Croatia 8. Austria - - Slovakia 9. Albania © L - - L Scotland ® As delicate was his position yesterday, things went much better for Jakusotsu today. He's already scored one goal (spot 4) thanks to his (R) team neutralizing at the same time his opponent's win of the Nationalmannschaft. Nothing is over yet as the win of Italy might be useless since Turkey will have good hopes to win also. In addition the loss of Croatia makes things difficult for Jakusotsu at spot 5 as Nekonishiki appears strong there with Portugal. Nekonishiki Goal H Chain H Goal A Chain A Jakusotsu 1.
