Ceroo

quote:


quote:

Ceroo's bid:
Ceroo is situated to the south-west of the main arm of the Apolyton continent and close to the centre of the region. It is a highly modernised nation, boasting excellent transport links- whether you are travelling by sea, aeroplane, train or car (the main islands are linked to each other and the mainland by Ceroostar trainlinks [RL: Eurostar] ). The people are warm and friendly and have recently rediscovered their love of football, with the domestic league gaining record attendances in the past season.

Stadia to host matches:
Stadio de Ceroo, Ceroo City Capacity:85,000
(will host the final)
The Millennium Stadium, Sarali Capacity:73,000 (has retractable roof)
Stadio Atlantis, Atlanya Capacity:54,000
Estadio San Antoni, San Antonio Bay Capacity:44,500
Newport Stadium, Newport Capacity:20,500
Riverside Stadium, Shoalvik Capacity:35,000
The Moss Rose Stadium, Macclesi (near Insus) Capacity:17,500
Stadio Giles Sports, Heatara Capacity:19,500
(Stadia from Vais'e, Caer Ceroo and Kimmi are also available, but are left out of the initial bid to accomodate two stadia from San Antonio Bay)

All stadia are 'all-seaters' and meet UAFA safety requirements.

We hope the above meets your approval and would be happy to accept your vote! See you in Ceroo 04!
***



Karakas

quote:


Served by Adailton's busy harbor and airport, Karakas offers high-class transportation and recreation facilities. Football is the number one sport in Karakas, and any event held here is sure to have an electric, exciting atmosphere!

Stadia:

National Stadium, Ciudad de Karakas Capacity: 52,000
(will host final)

Razorwing Grove, Adailton Capacity: 72,000

Castillo Blanco, Vina del Mar Capacity: 17,000

Port Town Stadium, Pendelhaven Capacity: 21,700

Highlander Stadium, Hammerheim Capacity: 23,000

Parque Verde del Caballo, Todos dos Santos (about halfway between Vermont and Vina del Mar) Capacity: 25,000



Iguana Fire

quote:


Being Situated in the far north of Apolytonia, Iguana Fire is far enough distant from the Azan Region's troubles and has sought to avoid influence in the region. As such, Iguana Fire should be a well-accepted neutral ground. Indeed, Iguana Fire's very neutrality should repel all claims of preference toward either side in the conflict. Nevertheless, Iguana Fire, in the event of trouble or terrorism, can also merit one of the region's strongest police forces. With cameras on every street corner and random security checks at airports and a national identification and tracking system- (managed by the IOTA- International Operations Tracking Authority), Iguana Fire has claim to being perhaps the safest nation in Apolytonia.

Iguana Fire also borders the vast ocean and has several picturesque rivers running through the nation. In its capital city of Igualica, bordering on the Igualica basin, Iguana Fire can boast three competing Free-Market stadiums. (The city itself boasts a population of 35 million football-rabid souls, with another 120 million in the 100 mile metropolitan region.)

In the Centralis region in the center of the nation, the Random river flows down from the mountains to the city of Centralis (population 20 million) hosting the Centralia Stadium (seating: 65,000)

Also included in the bid are the beautiful Spherko Heights stadium and the oceanside NewPort Shipping Co. Stadium.

So come to Iguana Fire, and you won't be disappointed.

Iguana Fire- the Nation for FreeMarketers Everywhere. Acceptable to all.

Petko International Foods Stadium

Lord Almersted-Barton Memorial Stadium

The stadium also allows for personages to watch the games from atop the hotel buildings, but charges over 30í (igua) to any who attempt to do so- nonetheless, spectator seating can hold at least 20,000 additional spectators.

Spherko Heights Field also offers monorail transit, railroad transit, and funiculare transit up the side of the mountain. (Sadly, patrons have to leave their cars parked at the base, but officials insist that Spherko Heights Transit Authority promises to transit all comers within 2 hours of beginning as their total capacity is 30,000 per round trip [each trip taking 1 hour]

Voted, for Ceroo suprisingly.
I wasn't going to, but then thought "what if I don't get any votes?!".

In other news, Ceroo's confidence was severly dented as they went down 4-0 to San Antonio Bay on the weekend. San Antonio star Raul scoring his first international hat-trick...

The Arch-Capitalist expresses his extreme displeasure at that wiseass b@stard's suggestion that he would engage in such an unprofitable activity as hosting a regional cup.

Voted for Iguana Fire. Seeing as how all the other nations are currently involved with hostilities against the honorable nation of Frankychanland, we feel that our men and women would be more safe in their territories.

Unless the other nations can guarantee our safety from the local populace as well as provide us with police escorts, our vote stands with Iguana Fire.

Support of the Concept has grown in Auldonina with the latest games attracting almost 45,000 to the Stadiums....

Still not a spopular as the local version of Football which attracts crowds of over 140,000 to each game.

The newly formed Soccer Federation of Auldoninna (SFA) has proposed an annual Apolynesia Soccer tournamment to be played amonsgt the small islands.

Seems reasonable.

So, is a simulation via Championship Manager game engine suitable for everybody?
I tried Ceroo [RL Wales] versus San Antonio Bay [RL Spain] in it and it produced a relatively realistic result 4-0 to San Antonio. For this to work everybody would need to choose a team to style their nations on and a list of player names/positions. Will post a few screenshots when they fix the telephone system out here. (Plodding along at 40,000bps is pathetic).

Or any other suggestions?

Meanwhile, pundits are predicting Ceroo and Iguana Fire will be among the front runners for the next UAFA tournament.
