Jejima Posted July 8, 2018 Author Posted July 8, 2018 We are down to the last four teams in the real world cup, with only two matches per round to make our predictions on. The rules are a little different for these two rounds. Please check below for explanation. Rules for the semi-finals (the finals will be on the same basis using the final match and the 3rd/4th play-off) The two real semi-final matches are broken into 'three' parts. a) the result of the first half b) the result of the second half c) the result of extra time (if no extra-time, this counts as a 'normal' 0-0 draw - even if it features a © or ® team) - Penalty shoot-outs are not included. Players need to label which part of the match they are predicting. Remember that a player predicts for all parts of the match for the teams still on his roster. So if the player has all four teams, he will have 12 slots in total. Label as follows:- (1st) = first half, (2nd) = second half, (ET) = Extra time. Players need to highlight their (S1) and (S2) teams (from the previous two rounds - if still in) - by putting it by the first mention of that team in your line-up. The © and ® teams - if any players is lucky enough to still have them - have slightly different rules (new for this competition). You choose which part of the match (so 1st, 2nd or ET - remember if no extra time occurs, then any ® or © team in that slot is counted as a 'normal' draw. If extra time does occur, then ® and © teams in that slot get the 'special' powers.) to use your special ® or © powers. This power can only be used once - so choose carefully. For the other two time periods, they count as 'normal' teams. Players need to remember to indicate (just the once) which slot he intends to use the special powers. Normal time rules As for previous rounds. Extra time rules The chain restarts for extra time from the slot after the one that ended the normal time results. (It does not go back to the start.) Penalty shoot-out See the message in this thread above. 'Drone' rules All teams already knocked out of the World Cup/Euros are removed from the drone's line-up. The order of a drone's squad will be the current order of his remaining teams, from 1st half - Extra time. E.g. Drone: 1. first team (1st), 2. first team (2nd), 3. first team (ET), 4. second team (1st), 4. second team (2nd) etc, where 'first team' means the first team in their previous line-up (for the quarter-finals) still in the World Cup / Euros competition. If a drone still has a © and/or ® team in its squad, the special powers are used in the first possible position. 'Semi-drone' rules.... If any player omits to give the 'time' for the match, E.g. 1. England, 2. Germany etc, it will be assumed to be 1. England (1st), 2. England (2nd), 3. England (ET), 4. Germany (1st) etc If a semi-drone still has a © and/or ® team in its squad, the special powers are used in the first possible position.

Brazil Bae Dat: 1. Brazil (S1) 2. Russia 3. Croatia Bae Dat's chain is broken at 1 by the Brazil loss. Chisha's chain is then broken at 2 for the same reason. No goal's scored. Final score after extra time: 0-0. In extra time, that starts at 3, again no goals can be scored as there are no winners in either team, either in 90 or 120 minutes. And so I believe we need @Jejima to run a penalty shoot-out. Agreed! Well, this is going to be interesting, Bae Dat pushed a button on a random list generator to choose his penalty takers..... Let's see if random can beat a planned list of takers...? (Please can the refiojis with the list of quarter-final penalty takers let me know ASAP if I have used the wrong list!) chishafuwaku.... Brazil! A bad start for chisha. 0-? Bae Dat.... Belgium! Pure luck! 0-1 chishafuwaku.... England... Back in the game. 1-1 Bae Dat.... Spain! The sides remain level 1-1 chishafuwaku.... Spain! He made the same mistake as Bae Dat... 1-1 Bae Dat.... Mexico! All to play for.... 1-1 chishafuwaku... Portugal! These keepers are amazing. 1-1 Bae Dat.... England! He has the lead! 1-2 chishafuwaku needs to score his next penalty to remain in the game.... . . . . . . . . chishafuwaku.... Croatia! 2-2 If Bae Dat scores his fifth penalty, it will all be over! . . . . . . . . Bae Dat.... Japan! What a wild shot. 2-2 Okay, it is sudden death now..... . . chishafuwaku.... France! It's in! 3-2 Bae Dat needs to score his next penalty to remain in the game..... . . . . . . . . . . Bae Dat... Switzerland! Oh, the shot is saved! 3-2 chishafuwaku wins the penalty shoot-out. Final score chishafuwaku 0-0, (0-0 AET), 3-2 (PK) Bae Dat chishafuwaku moves onto the semi-finals of the Bowl. Bae Dat is on the plane to join his little brother already at home.

Achiyama Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) Quarterfinals stage (Refioji Achiyama): Final Scores The Cup match between Nekonishiki and Nantonoyama. The real score of the match was favorable for Nekonishiki twice, but Croatia both time managed to even the score. In the penalty kicks phase Croatia scored 1 more goal and send Russia packing. As Russia had a draw after 90 min. Nekonishiki's chain was broken at Slot #2. Nantonoyama's (R) team France was waiting at Slot #3 and scored 2 goals. Win for Nantonoyama 2:0. The Saucer match between Crall and Jakusotsu was already decided. The final score was 1:0 for Jakusotsu, who goes to the 1/2 finals. WORLD CUP NEKONISHIKI NANTONOYAMA SQUAD Goals SQUAD Goals 1.

Jejima Posted July 8, 2018 Author Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) Get to know your Semi-finals refioji! Please check below, and send to the relevant refioji by PM here or by email. Please check to see if your refijoi has a preferred method of receiving your entry. Please also check for the deadlines that they set for entries. Otherwise, assume it to be 30 minutes before the start of the Belgium vs France match. Please (and refiojis need to cross-check) refer to Nekonishiki's post (yet to be written!) in this thread regarding the teams left on your squad. You need to divide your remaining teams into three. [1st] = first half [2nd] = second half [ET] = Extra Time Please remember to label (S1) or (S2) teams that you may have in the first time that they appear in your chain. For those players who still have either a Representative team or a Counter-balance team, the special (C) and (R) powers can only be used once. When you make your chain, please remember to indicate which part of the match you would like the special powers to be used. A correctly entered line-up would look something like this... Wakanohana: 1. Hakuho (S2) [2nd], 2. Abi [1st], 3. Abi (C) [2nd], 4. Hakuho [ET], 5. Abi [ET], 6. Goeido [ET], 7. Goeido [2nd], 8. Hakuho [1st], 9.

For the other two time periods, they count as 'normal' teams. Players need to remember to indicate (just the once) which slot he intends to use the special powers. Just a question to clarify : If I choose to use my special power of (R) team for [ET] and Extra Time DOES NOT occur, it means that this slot will be like a 0-0 but the special power ARE NOT in use, as my team will be considered as a normal (N) team Am I right?

Correct. If there is no extra time, any (C) or (R) rules will be ignored if a player has chosen extra time for the special power. This means that a player with a (C) team cannot gamble on getting an easy draw - and a possible goal - with his/her counter-balance squad (guessing that the game will not go to extra time) AND a player with an (R) team will not be heavily penalised if no extra time is played and he/she has chosen the unplayed extra time for the special power. In short, if a player selects extra time for (R) or (C) team, the special rules will apply only if extra time is actually played for the game in question - otherwise it will be treated as a 'normal draw' - i.e. if there is isn't any extra time, it won't break your chain, but it also won't score you a goal. 1

Chijanofuji Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) I'm just getting to grips with how play for the last 2 rounds (the 2 semi-finals and then the final + 3rd/4th place match) works... Until now I understood very little of it from just reading through the rules (so yes, especially that section of the rules is in need of a thorough rewrite for clarification purposes in my opinion), but it's beginning to dawn on me... So possible line-ups for me as examples (many more are possible) would be.. 1. France [1st], 2 Belgium (R) [1st], 3. France [2nd], 4. Belgium [2nd], 5. France [ET], 6. Belgium [ET] 1. France [ET], 2.

BWBS2 Match 6Bozhanitakara (Australia) Bozhanitakara: 1. France [1st], 2. England (S2) [1st], 3. France [ET], 4. France [2nd], 5. England [2nd], 6. England [ET] vs Maeden (Colombia) Maeden: 1. France (S2) [2nd], 2. England [1st], 3. France [1st], 4. England [2nd], 5. England [ET], 6.

However, if you look more closely, it is certainly possible for a result in normal time to happen.
