Hey linguistic brothers, We're announcing a revamped Infinity Cup this year! Come join us over at https://anon.cafe/icup/ and make your own team!

Hey /lang/, I'll be running a test stream this Saturday the 18th on https://cytu.be/r/8cup. The whole thing kicks off at 3 EDT, 2CST, 19:00 UTC. We'll be playing some friendlies, having a bit of banter, and just shitposting on our merry ways. Tune in!

Thank you to all who tuned in to the /test/ stream today. If you missed it, the matches will be up on the archive soon (https://pt.neko.bar/video-channels/icuparchive/video-playlists). We are officially two weeks away from the Group Draw to see who your team will compete against in the first stage of the Cup. If your team does not have their tactics sorted out yet, feel free to chip in by working on Team Strategies (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Team_Strategies) or Player Cards (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Player_Cards). I know this is complicated, so swing by your thread on /icup/ and I can answer any questions you might have. The deadline is July 31st. If you're not tactically inclined, you can still help out by creating adboards specific to your board. Adboards, like /japan/'s here, pic #2 related, are the little signs that cycle through on the sidelines during games. Post a board-related ad as a PNG in the same dimensions as /japan/'s and I'll be able to use it during the Cup. Any other OC for your team or roster you'd like to contribute is always appreciated as well.

Oh yeah, we won against /fascist/.
Just a reminder you have less than a week to finish up tactics and player cards. If you are having any difficulties or are worried no one will step up, leave a post here or in your thread on /icup/. I have an anon on standby willing to put something together for teams who need help. If you're a team who has participated in a previous Cup and you have not explicitly let me know you're sticking with your strats from last time, do so ASAP, as it cuts down on the work I'll have to do in the week after the Draw Stream. If you've already done so, kick back, take it easy and wait for the draw stream. Draw Stream is August 1st, 2PM PDT, 4PM CDT, 5PM EDT, 21:00 UTC. Mark that calendar. As well, we're still accepting adboards for use during the tournament, visit the dedicated adboard thread on /icup/ and post them there.
Just under an hour away, Draw Stream, be there! https://cytu.be/r/8cup

The Draw Stream is complete, and with only minor technical difficulties! You guys will play in Group G with /christian/, /animu/, and /fascist/! I'll be by again later with official game times for your board.

Be sure to tune in for these games and more this weekend!
>>257 If we join the next cup, can we just do the opposite of this strategy?

Infinity Cup 6 is now complete! Congratulations to /fascist/ who join the ranks of champions as they defeated /bane/ 2-1 in the Final! In an unprecedented turn of events, the Golden Boot will be shared by not 2, but 3 players: Alfred Legosen (/lego/), Ammit (/monster/), and Cuckquean-tan (/cuckquean/). Each player scored 6 goals officially through the Cup, fitting, giving it was the 6th edition. Thank you to every anon who chipped in throughout the Cup, and thank you especially to all the anons who took the time to tune in. We'll see you for ICUP 7!

I came up with a new logo and a new strategy >>>/icup/1650
>>350 Lookin' good!
>>350 I really like that logo. What's our new strategy? I didn't think our was a bad one, we got a game in, didn't we?
>>360 Our new strategy is the opposite of the old one. We did win one game narrowly, but honestly it wasn't good enough.
I don't like this ooga booga player. Just doesn't really fit in, it's more of a /pol/ character.
>>382 I like him to be honest. Wouldn't know how else to include an African language, and besides, it's hardly offensive compared to proper /pol/ stuff.

>>382 >>386 You both are ignoring its origin. While it's /pol/ related, it's meant to be a reference to this. >>361 I think we need to rectify that post before SKF fucks up our formation. Also should Loomis have a special position or should we remove that role? I don't think it helped him any.
>>387 huh, what's this about Loomis?

Hello /lang/, I arrive at your humble board to officially announce the GCUP! The GCUP will be an exhibition tournament between boards of the webring that represent nations of the world, and will be contested under usual ICUP rules. In addition, we'll also be hosting friendlies for non-national boards/teams as part of the festivites. Friendlies can be played under normal rules, or, if you choose, under alternate (meme) rulesets that will be decided closer to the Cup's kickoff. If you would like to participate, head on over to the pinned thread at our board on Cafe. The event is set to begin February 13th, 2021. Look forward to having you there!
(1.19 MB 1020x1320 GCUPFriendlies.jpg)

The GCUP Friendlies are set! Teams and gimmicks were drawn at random; you will be playing /pol/ in the sixth friendly of the tournament. Start time can be found here: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=2021-02-20T19:30:00 We'll be showing these matches on the 8cup cytube as usual. Tune in!
We're on in just over an hour! Bonŝancon!
