Official FIFA 2014 World Cup Walrus - knock-out stage


Ok - so I have declared the group stages of the Official FIFA 2014 World Cup Walrus a huge success. Now we embark on part 2: the knock-out stage.


NB. NB. NB. ---> You don't have to have taken part in the group stages of the Official FIFA 2014 World Cup Walrus to sign up for this game.


This will be fast-paced.


I need 8 (eight) players to sign up.


How it works: You will be randed one of the countries in the quarter finals of the World Cup. You will go head to head with your WC opponents. (So if you rand Brazil you go up against Colombia, etc.)


The head to head match up: you choose 3 songs/pieces of music from your country and I judge them - in order - against the three from your opponent. (So, very vaguely, like chinese poker.) If you win you progress to the semi-finals.

At this point I will re-rand the remaining 4 players so that they do not get the same countries as they have already had. And we go again. And the same for the final (& 3&4th place if you - the players - want to).

Timing: Ideally sign ups would happen asap - but obviously I can't rand until after Tuesday's games. The time allowed for submissions of the 3 pieces will be short - probably 48 hours.


* [Thanks to Nick Royale for the idea - plagarized almost completely.]

** Sincerely, many thanks to TheBATM, CT and UD for their help in the group stages. However, there will be no guest mods for the business end of the WCW.

Gogogo

In to rand Colombia.

Not gonna have much time, but don't think I'll need it to crush submit some stuff tchaz won't hate*.

*ok sometimes he'll hate it

In if game will be completed (ie I can submit final if I make it that far) before 8am GMT Monday 7th July - as I will be incommunicado for 5 days after that time.

To all you coward regs who didn't play last time.

So we have:

Brazil
Colombia
Netherlands
Costa Rica

Argentina/Switzerland
France/Nigeria
Germany/Algeria
Belgium/USA

As long as I don't rand Costa Rica or Switzerland beats Argentina this should be ok.

Man, if Greece knocked out Costa Rica the game would be much more GOAT. Lolgreeks way to throw it.

Yes - that will be fine - well, you'll have to give conditional picks for the final I suppose.

I was pretty interested in the Greek stuff you didn't submit last time - but at least this way someone will be forced to explore Costa Rican music for us all.

Sure.

Ok, I will do it.
