Hopefully it’ll snowball from there.

SA is my first choice as I'm a proud croweater but if need be..

Wait, GremioPower, is this why your avatar pic is now the Flag of Kenya?

I think we’re taking any substantial international link. In my head I think you qualify

I've previously captained the Allies and won the SoO with them. I'll stick with them.

That looks amazing!
Adding to places Id like to go list.

Unfortunately that list is growing far faster than my capabilities to go places. World travel bans aren't helping either

Well, you would be able to stay here, and we would go together. Costs would go down: plane to Buenos Aires; bus to Paso de Los Libres; then, GremioPower Tourism Inc.

Does the small body of water between Tasmania and the mainland allow me to qualify for overseas?

No, you are playing for the allies.

This is where it will fall apart if you start accepting very tenuous links to overseas you will lose credibility.

We are accepting PROPOSALS. If the person QUALIFIES, that’s another issue entirely.

For instance, seven consecutive years living abroad should qualify.

this is a very enticing offer.
The usual restrictions of time and money apply, but a local tour guide would be amazing. Get the proper experience!

Let's see whether the Overseas can field a team for Series XVII.

Six teams make a better tournament than 5!

Ive mentioned this before - we need the Committee to reallocate people from other teams to the Overseas team to make this happen. This won’t work if we’re only relying on new people, and not many people will move from their initial SOO allocation.

It doesn't make sense players to be forbidden of joining a new team. The non-transfer rule should work only for the already existing sides.

For instance, a player cannot change from Vic Metro to the Allies. That's fair, because those 2 teams have participated in previous SoO Series.

Now, if a new team joins the competition, that's an option players didn't have before. Hence, they should be free to join the new side, if they want to or have the right to do so.
