10000 Islands football/soccer league!!!

[Alfonia]

I am going to start a football/soccer league here in the 10000 Islands. If you want your team to take place in the league, please message me, but this first season the league only has 14 places. If all works well a second league or division will be formed after this season!
TTIFL - rules

Signed by the league governor Alfonia.

All teams are ranked between 1-12 rank-points, 12 being the teams with the best players and 1 being the teams with the worst.
Nations under with under 20 million inhabitants can not be ranked over 8 and nations with over 400 million inhabitants can not be ranked under 3, nations with one billion or more inhabitants can not be ranked under 5.
After each league there's a 33% chance that your team will improve one rank-point, a 33% chance that it will drop one rank-point, and a 33% chance that nothing will happen.
When entering the league system a nations teams rank-points are randomized between 1-10, after each league is finished the winner will gain one rank-point, and the two last teams will lose one rank-point each, even if this puts them under or over the limits set by the rule above, but apart from that a team can never go under one or over 12. No exception to this rule is made, even if a powerful/important nation demands it.
Every team in the league will play against every other team twice. It is the duty of the nation owning the home team to supply a stadium and lots of cheering fans!
It is only allowed for a nation to own one team, please don't create colonies or anything so you can get more than one team in the league system. If I discover this, one of the teams will be banned and the other punished, most likely with a point penalty.
14 teams can play in the highest league and the two teams finishing last will be moved to the second league (if there is one).
Unfortunately there will only be place for 14 teams the first season, but if all goes well more teams will be let in before the start of the second season.
The second league (if needed) will also contain 14 teams, and the two finishing first will be moved up to the first league. If needed a third league will be formed also containing 14 teams. the second and first league are considered "higher divisions" and any league below the second will be considered a "lower division".
Teams gain three points for winning a game and one point if it's a draw.
A result is a result, if that two-pointed team beat your 10-pointed one, you will have to accept the loss
The nation governing the league is not permitted to have a team in any of the leagues, any other nation may have one, as long as they are in the 10000 Islands, ambassadors from allies to the 10000 Islands may have a team in the league, ambassadors from other regions must get a permit from the league-governor.
All match-results are random, but the teams rank points are used in the calculations, a 12-point team will most probably beat a 2-point one.
It is not allowed to try to bribe/threat the nation governing the league.
It is not allowed for any person involved in the league to take bribes.

I need your participation! You may Name your team what you like, as long as it isn't racist or offending.
Please include the name of your team in your message. I will message you back with your rank classification, rank and confirm your teams name. Since this is the first season, things might not work perfectly, but I am confident that things will go well. Match results will be published here, if you want to play a training game vs any of the other teams before the season starts, message me.


Again: to join message me telling me your team name, then you will get the other info like your rank and description from me. (you do not have to use the description, but you're stuck with the rank you get I'm afraid....)

[Thewsconia]

Team number:3
Owner nation: The People's Republic of Thewsconia
Team name: the Thewsconia Lancers
Team rank: 10
League: First
Rank classification: Artistic divas

Size: huge
Style: A bit too individual, Artistic

The Thewsconia Lancers has many of the best players in the world. The players are really true artists, and they are paid insane amounts of money. The team consists of superstars and living legends. The teams downside is that all the players just want too much, and many of them prefer to shoot and miss instead of passing a team-mate that scores.
Average number of supporters/ game: 60000
The supporters are a bunch of noisy, yet sensitive people that like to argue about who's the best in the team.

[Odracir]

Team number:1
Owner nation: The Federation of Odracir
Team name: the Odracir Jaguars
Team rank: 6 points
League: First
Rank classification: Developing team

The Odracir Jaguars is a team made up of a sensible mix between young talents and old experienced players. The leadership is good, but not very good. The only thing this team lacks is that player who has got the guts to take a card to prevent a goal. The team hasn't got any real superstars and it never have had any, but the team works good together, and maybe in a couple of seasons (maybe even sooner), it will reach the top. Average number of supporters/ game: 20000
The supporters are a bunch of almost fanatic, yet friendly people of all ages that tend to come from the middle-class.

[TheSensitiveNewAge]

Team name: the Ninja-Monkeys, team #7
Owner nation: the Dictatorship of TheSensitiveNewAge
Team rank: 7
League: first
Rank classification: Former all-star team
Team description:
A couple of years ago the Ninja-Monkeys was one of the better clubs in the league. The leaders bet it all on one card, and bought many good players, and many said they were certain to win the league, however they didn't and the clubs economy imploded. The club still has one or two stars from that period, but the rest is the former second team, the experienced trainer has some problems organizing them. The players main strenght is their stamina, and it wins most of its games in the last minute when the opponents are tired. Many supporters from the team's days of glory are still faithful, hoping that their beloved team will recover. Average number of supporters/ game: 35000
The supporters are a bunch of noisy,drum-beating fanatics that like to remember the team's great days of glory.

Do not worry about the fans, if they act up they will be dealt with, generally with real ninja-monkeys. All fans from other nations will likewise be treated similarly.

[Thewsconia]

So when's the league starting? I'm ready to kick some Ninja-Monkey a$$!!!

[Alfonia]

Well I want to have at least ten teams by then, really the league is a 14-team one, so in that case I'll have to include 4 teams governed by no-one.
These four teams will all be ranked between 1 and 3, so they won't have any real chance of winning. The reason I'll have to do that is that I don't want to have to redo the system I've built up.

[Boktavia II]

Don't forget I want to be in the league, Alfonia. I gave you a message, remember? You said you just had to give me my random rank.

[newwallia]

I've passed on a message too - I hope it's not too late to see the Ystwyth Rangers in the League!

[Alfonia]

So we have 10 teams! That's simply great! It means that we can start the league tomorrow.
However since the league is meant to have 14 places, I will include teams to fill up the last four places. These teams will be ranked between 1-2 points, and well, the chance of them beating a 6-pointed team is ridicolously small.
It will be possible for nations that hasn't got a team already to take over these during the season. When (and if) someone takes over one of these teams, they will get their rank like a normal team, but keep their score they have in the league.

Thanks to all who have registred, and made this league possible!

[Boktavia II]

Team number:11
Owner nation: the Empire of Boktavia
Team name: The Boktavia Grizzlies
Team rank: 9
League: first
Rank classification: Brutal Professionals
Team description: The Boktavia Grizzlies play soccer, and the play it well. As their classification implies, the Grizzlies are well trained and proffesional at the game, and they know it doesn't hurt every once in a while to foul an opponent if it means taking out a lead scorer. The Grizzlies play to win. Their coach has one of the most brilliant strategic minds in the country (when it comes to sports). Grizzlies fans are some of the most die-hard fans you can find around, and constantly produce sell-out games at the Imperial Boktavian Stadium. Average number of supporters/game: 42000. The fans know that the glory days of the Grizzlies is now.
