I'm slowly emerging back to life... to death that is.

Great to see Wilwa joining the game and the team!

That seems to mean that we can only get one from the top of the list; Legate (3), Sally (3) and Gwath (2), into the team.

I'm going to use one of my votes to tie it up with the argument that it would be bad to leave a multiple winner of the phantasy-tournament without a spot in the team.

Seconding: ++ Gwath

That said I withold my other votes as yet if someone else wants to make the difference here. If all the others have used their votes already (which I doubt), I'll use some more votes - well at least one - tomorrow...

Wait a minute... aren't there also two slots to fill in the 'Downer -team?

So. I have used one vote thus far.

I'm ready to use one more to vote for Gwath. As the "serial-winner" of the Arda Phantasy Game he kind of belongs to the Barrow-Downs team on my view.

But if I then vote for Sally & Legate for the 'Downer team, will that be settled then? Or do you tp have other ideas on how to fill those slots?

Or is anyone discussed above especially interested in a certain team to play for? I mean if Gwath would rather play in the 'Downer team and Sally couldn't think of herself in it, I could also vote otherwise.

Or someone else might take the initiative.

Okay- here's how things stand I believe...

Nominated
Legate (3)
Sally (3)
Skip
Gwath (3)
Wilwa (2)
Kuru

Elected to the team
Shasta
Nerwen
Galadriel55

Barring two brand new faces, Wilwa automatically gets a slot on the Barrow-Downs team as a returning player.

That leaves Legate, Sally, and Gwath all up for two spots on the TIG squad. The first two to receive another vote get the slots, while the third person will be slotted on the Barrow-Downs team, only to be bumped out if a brand new player shows up.

I think that's fair, yes?

Tol In Gaurhoth
GK- ShastaWolf
DF- Draugluin
DF- GaladriWight
DF- BoroWolf
DF- NilpWolf
MF- (TBAwight)
MF- (TBAwight)

MF- NerWight
MF- PhantomWolf
FW- Thuringwethil
FW- InzilWolf

The Barrow-Downs
GK Alien
DF Lumpkin
DF (tbaWight)
DF River Woman
DF Barrow-Wight
MF WilWight
MF Lalwende MP
MF Goldberry
MF Hookbill
FW Saucepan Man
FW Bombadil

As soon as the slots are finalized we'll post complete rosters and groupings for everyone, and then we'll play two rounds of friendlies while everyone has time to look at the teams and rules and decide on your squad.

Oh, we need a logo!

Maybe for all the teams?

Is there anyone interested in making team logos or designing kits for the teams?

Well... to be honest, no one can do that alone. But if people had ideas and willingness to take on such a project we could do it together?

I'm making the 2013 Arda Cup logo. Also, I have ideas for colours of some teams (viz. the ones I did a diagram on at least once.) But making logos for each would be beyond me.
