I'm not a comic book guy, but this looks pretty cool.

Ah yes, the Hivemind Labyrinth of Backrooms, which we never speak of... oops!

They snuck in a goal there even being a man down, but they need to turn it around in time for the round of 16. ... Which I'm pretty excited about. Spain/Portugal and Germany/England will be great.

That does not sound appetizing.

The knockout stage really does fly by. The England-Germany game looks to be the best game of the round of 16 so far, too. It'll be a fun watch!

Now that's drama. Fantastic! EDIT: If the US avoids playing Germany, making it to the quarter finals is a strong possibility.

Though, it should be pointed out, that such an unexpected result from Slovenia would not be the strangest thing to happen this World Cup. Bizarre results have not been limited to Group C.

Indeed, this World Cup is certainly not a bore to watch. There have been lots of good, interesting games, and impressive teams. Well, you know, except France, the third-to-last team to score at all this World Cup. What a let down.

No problem! For some reason, I'm not bored of the stats. ;) I assumed the party was the same--5 PCs, average level 12.

They dropped 8 back in their first game. In their second, it looked like they tried to have a few midfielders, so they changed their strategy a bit.

Finally updated! Hope you don't mind, Jester, I filled in some numbers from DDE. I'm still keeping track of my numbers, but not always posting them in this thread first.

The main reason I see why it's a terrible rule is because it's always a detriment, never an advantage. Therefore, not balanced at all, and makes the game less fun for players. The current rule, on the other hand, is sometimes a detriment, sometimes an advantage. I like it, though I wish there...

I've been gone for a few days! Happy birthday, Dog Moon!

This. Though the call may have been technically correct, it was a bad call. There are a lot of "technically correct" calls that refs choose to call or not call--it happens almost constantly. There's an important difference between correct/incorrect and good/bad.

It was a fun Free RPG Day! Didn't get a chance to play or run the Dark Sun adventure, though.

Have you not had that few in some time? The stats I have for you are somewhat consistent in terms of player count. Or am I misunderstanding something?

I'll put in another vote for Howard being the best player on the US side. In fact, I think that the US team has a better goalie than England, though England has a much stronger defense. I really expected to see Hart in there instead of Green.

An upset, certainly, but by no means unheard of. Rank 3ish upset by a rank 28ish? In 2006, during the World Cup, Czechia (10) was beaten 2-0 by Ghana (43). 2002 World Cup, France (1) lost 1-0 to Senegal (27). So, US beating England in 1950? My response: statistical anomalies exist.

Wait, what? Do you have players running multiple characters or something?

I tend to think neither means anything. On the other hand, if people like it, then it's a feature that attracts people to EN World, so it's useful nonetheless.
