I'm surprised, i never noticed a lot of active canadians
Its almost 3 years to the day since the last "Bush World Cup" (Sponsored by Harbinger, who very kindly paid for the PW)
It incorporated 10 teams from around the world. Each team representing their country. Each team consisted of 10 players, 100 in all, and it made for a very interesting, if not slap-dash, private world.

This time round, I propose a little more consultation. There are a number of things that need to be discussed if we're to see the possibility of a World Cup 09'.
Such as:
- Who will meed the cost of the PW? - A 2 week, 10 minute tick PW, will cost 45 BC for 100 people to play in (Do we find a sponsor for the event, or will each team pay 5 BC to enter?)
An idea I had was trying to make the PW "Official" - With Azzer's backing we could "portal" the winning country each year, eternalizing the winning country and their players.
- What settings should the PW have?
- Who will decide the team captains? (The playerbase? How? A vote?)
- Who will decide the 10 best players from each country? (The captains? The playerbase?)
- When will it start? (A couple of weeks planning will almost certainly be required to get things right)
- What will be the reward? A BC reward for each player could be costly, for example awarding each member of the winning team 5 BC, would cost 50 in all. Maybe a new Player Award'? 20-50 points? Or a special in-game unit. Something to encourage people to do well!

I'm not sure if enough people would be behind this to bring it around again, but I'd sure like to see it happen.
Thoughts?

Not active, but look at top 3 in player value last round.
All canadian :<
Some countries will have problems filling a team of 10 indeed, what about using 'regions' for certain teams? Like the Benelux for Belgium & the Netherlands, and the Baltics for Bulgaria & Romania, Oceania for Australia & New Zealand, etc...

UK would have to be split differently i think. Would make more sense to have a England team and then a combined Scottish, Irish and Welsh side perhaps. As I feel a UK team would have enough applicants to make 3 teams or so.
Aye, but since your not going to fill 10 teams (least i doubt it) your denying 10 other people from a game with a large UK player base from getting the chance to play?
I should also probably point out that this isn't going to be a PW for everyone. The whole point is that each team consists of the best 10 players from a country (or agreed geographical region).
