Yep it is indeed the genius of Vini

Darth Vader is part of our TISC ceremony.... historic moment

People who work this many hours are just crazy anyway . Unless you own a business or something why the hell would you work that many hours (I'm not talking about third world countries of course). A lot of people gloat about how much hours they work as if it is a badge of honour and I just pity them

Can @Griff88 @dezbee2008 and @intoronto reply as soon as possible to say if they want a swap or to stay where they are? @Wanderer too, though maybe you can manage with a slightly awkward time? Please also bear in mind that the templates may already be in place by the time the swap is requested and might not be possible at that point to change.

amen has swapped you with India so your voting time is a little better now. Still an early start though!

I see, very awkward voting time for you! I have asked amen if it's still possible to swap but bear in mind it might not be possible as the scoreboard templates might already be in place.

I see the voting schedule has been posted in the first post of the thread. Everyone should double check it to make sure their local voting time is correct

amen is drafting the schedule now

Yep, Denmark in the TISC Annual 2016.... it got my 12 too

Thanks buddy, who's buying the drinks?

Congrats Denmark and @Agger So....another superpower won't be going to the World Cup in Russia

Yes saw him play Anderson yesterday..... the crowd didn't help the situation either, kind of heckling him about it until the announcer told them to behave and Anderson also made that clear to them too. Anderson was encouraging him throughout which was a really nice touch. I felt a bit emotional just watching him too, especially when the crowd were making things worse, really sad for him

For me there was only one penalty, the Darmian handball. I think the other handball was less clear cut and was more kicked towards his hand (though I would not have said it was an injustice to award it either, it was not a clear decision either way).

Exactly, and by playing teams like Cyprus more regularly it can surely be only a good thing. The games against Austria and Serbia should be closer affairs and will be the ones to determine who will survive. Conference II North is the easier division but better playing in the harder division and gaining better experience is better in the long term

Yes I followed the results of that match, good performance really as Slovenia would be one of the stronger teams in that conference (north and south). The match against Cyprus will be another lesson level though as they will be favourites to claim the southern title. But good progress from Slovakia in a short period and first goal is to avoid the drop

Hmm, I was reading about member associates of World Rugby and in their official handbook, seems like they had a little trouble with the identity of one nation.... @hckosice

Hahaha, there's no telling what our lot get up to when we are in town . Looks like our fans had great craic in Copenhagen . I saw clips of Irish fans and Danes in the city watching the game on the streets and looked like a great party. I imagine there was one or two beers drank last night

Yikes!! .....but also, yay

I fear it begins with the letter V and rhymes with a famous waterfall . Great for all those bunga bunga parties

Well Switzerland always have a lot of luck . Don't forget they should have seen a red card too in the opening minutes for a terrible challenge on Dallas which he never recovered from. It was a straight red offence in any normal situation.

Poland and Indonesia are a mirror image beside each other too

Ahh, I see

I will say yes, but then again I am not the host

What does this mean?
