Any plans to incorporate AvF? Great power assignment is random in the other World Cup games, what if you played one game against the six other people, start one game a week, assuming the other games each round take a couple months to play out?

How about we have the world cup on a world map, and each team gets assigned to their corresponding region on the map?

(1) All hail Cascadia!
(2) How come the final result has not been filled in on the table on the 2016 WC results page and there is no large banner at the top of the page with a Cascadia flag and a clear indication of who won?
(3) All hail Cascadia!

Unfortunately, Leon, there aren't any teams from Africa or India. The format will be the same as the past time.

Maybe we should throw a 1v1 match into the mix this time around given the recent popularity.

Do you play in one game at a time and how long are the turns?

Do we know what form the games will take this year? None of that sum of squares nonsense, and I trust we're going to drop the irritating new fashion of making tournament games unranked?

I can hear out arguments for ranked vs unranked, but will ultimately go with whatever leads to the best quality tournament - both in quality of games and participants.
