MoC - Quick World Cup Pools Update
The Irish Community
Hi all,
Tomorrow the last games of the first round of the world cup will be played. The first games of the second round will begin on Saturday, which leaves a very small window of time in which people whose teams are knocked out in the first set can join back in, if they choose, for round two.
As a reminder, you can only join in at this stage if you already joined in the first round and at least one of your teams has now been eliminated. For each team you no longer have in the game you can buy in one more ticket and you will be assigned one of the last sixteen randomly. This still costs 0.5g, the money must still be sent to Donut Factory org, if you win you will still receive an equal share of the prize fund, which will be bigger due to this round. I don't have time to individually PM everyone who is participating but the list is below so you can check it against who you drew. I will draw the assignments after the last game tomorrow, which will be around 10pm UK time. I'll do my best to get them all out before kick-off on Saturday. You can participate NOW if your team is on the 'Definitely Out' or the 'Decided Tomorrow' list (the teams on which vary greatly in terms of how safe they are realistically), your gold will be returned if your team remains safe once the round one matches finish tomorrow.
I hope that's clear enough, I just didn't want anyone to miss out.

There's pretty much twenty-four hours to opt-in, which is not compulsory, just an option for anyone who wants to continue to play. This option is for this round only and will not repeat for the quarters, semis etc.
With love,
Donut

Can you actually remind me who I got? I remember I got Portugal who are likely to go through anyway. I think the other team are Italy but I'm not sure. They're eliminated anyway.
@John G - PORTUGAL and ITALY, yep.
Good luck John, Italy should do well considering they won last time ..ohwait.

Still, could have been worse, who got France? hehe
