Middle-Earth Football World Cup 2007

[Sleepy Ranger]

After much thought and work the Middle-Earth Football World Cup 2007 is finally here! I know many of you have been waiting for it and I'm sorry I couldn't get this done earlier but I've been "busy". I'm afraid arcticstorm will not be able to help me out with this but I would like to give complete credit to him for making the teams with complete rosters. I doubt I'd have such a wonderful base to get started if it weren't for him.

Here is the old thread for those who weren't around last time and those who want to go through it again- MEFWC

Alright, heres some things that weren't around the last time around:

• A fantasy football tournament to increase user interaction
• Matches will be simmed on Winning Eleven instead of Fifa
• Screenshots of games will most probably be available
• Complete line ups!

Of course just like last time around I'd need people to volunteer to help with press work and such. You know, like writing articles, fan reactions and so on. Any help at all will be very appreciated.

Without further ado, the teams that made it past qualifying.

1. Valinor
2. Tuna
3. Tol Eressea
4. Numenor
5. Nargothrond
6. Gondolin
7. Doriath
8. Angband
9. Dor-Lomin
10. Brethil
11. Shire
12. Buckland
13. Bree
14. Arnor
15. Rivendell
16. Misty Mountains
17. Mirkwood
18. Erebor
19. Moria
20. Lothlorien
21. Fangorn
22. Rohan
23. Gondor
24. Mordor
25. Barrow-Downs
26. Tol-in-Gauroth
27. Ham
28. Niggle's Parish
29. Wooton Major
30. Old Grey Hill
31. Inklings
32. Roverandom

As you can see there are many new faces this time since we've decided to include the entire Tolkien-verse this time. It should be a good tournament.

I will most probably have the groups up tomorrow along with a summary of the previous tournament.

So, what are you waiting for? Let the games begin!
