EWB World Cup 2006 Sweepstake

[alldaws1]

This draw is so complicated. Two non-colourful, big bowls? It was simpler with hats.

Give me England. Or Mexico. Anyone but Germany.

[EddieG]

Green Demon I hate you lol

[alldaws1]

Why hate someone with a team that will go out in the group stages?

[EddieG]

'Cause I'm a proud fan no matter whether they win or lose And we will win

[chazmers]

ill take brazil, i know i should be patriotic but hey may as well get the chance to win

[Number of the Breast]

Switzlerland? How very meh. Well, at least they've got a good chance of making it to the knockouts.

[EddieG]

chaz i think youre a bit late mate (Y)

[Buford Ripley]

Chaz should also find that teams are randomly drawn.

[Turbo Yannis]

Group F:

Brazil -

Croatia -

Australia -

Japan - Turbonegro

Turbonegro must fancy his teams chances with Croatia and Australia in the same group.

[Ace]

Dont count your chickens yet Turbengro

Australia's got that 2nd place spot

[Turbo Yannis]

I shant be drawn in to the Australlia arguement

But I will say: RETS TO FUCKING MENTAL!

I need to think of some good Japanese chants...

[chazmers]

i know its randomly drawn just saying in the luck of the draw thats all.

[TAFKA Castroneves]

Well you're not Brazil Chaz, but you've done alright (Y)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's see how that influences the groups of the competition...

Group A:

Germany -

Costa Rica -

Poland -

Ecuador - Small Red

Small Red takes the first place in this group. Ecuador do have a chance here.

Group B:

England -

Paraguay -

Trinidad and Tobego - Michael

Sweden - Jam

Jam is joined by Michael with the groups underdogs Trinidad and Tobego.

Group C:

Argentina -

Ivory Coast -

Serbia and Montenegro - lafunky xxvii

Holland - Green Demon

lafunky joins Green Demon in Group C, but realisation is that lafunky is going to have a difficult time here.

Group D:

Mexico - Chazmus

Iran - IAceI

Angola -

Portugal -

Mexico and Chazmus combine with Iran and IAceI - but it's got to be said Mexico are favourites to make it through.

Group E:

Italy -

Ghana -

USA -

Czech Republic - Jook

Jook could see his team go through, performances on the day will decide this.

Group F:

Brazil - Lowerdeck

Croatia -

Australia -

Japan - Turbonegro

Lowerdeck is already looking to the next round - but even the big boys can slip up.

Group G:

France - Summers

Switzerland - Aaron Maiden

South Korea - Assassin

Togo -

Summers and Aaron Maiden are joined by Assassin to make the joint most complete group so far. South Korea have got to be fancied along with Summers' France - but don't discount the Swiss.

Group H:

Spain -

Ukraine - Hipster Doofus

Tunisia - The Kraig

Saudi Arabia - TAFKA Castroneves

Kraigy joins TAFKA in the screwed club.

The Next 8 will be drawn soon

[Assy]

South Korea, meh. I could have done a lot worse I suppose, and at least I should (more than likely) get out of the group stages.

[Number of the Breast]

Lowerdeck, you lucky boy.

[ONO]

Dan, Dragsy; I'm willing to share my team if ya's want.

[Ace]

I'll share with ya Lost Soul

[ONO]

Yeah, ok.

TAFKA: Angola is drawn to...LOST SOUL

TAFKA: Oh, and he's jointly sharing with the Ace also...so.

Draw 19: Lost Soul and the Ace draw Angola

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TAFKA: Well once again the big teams are trying to stay away, we must be seeing one any moment - will it be number 20?

TAFKA: Well they are just outside that top seven still remaining in my eyes...

TAFKA: The winners of the African Cup of Nations - the Ivory Coast. A very capable side.

TAFKA: The person who gets them? TMM

TAFKA: TMM draws one of my personal favourites for success in this competition.

Draw 20: TMM draws the Ivory Coast

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TAFKA: Who will get this contender?

WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?

TAFKA: No, that's seriously who drew it, not a statement

Draw 23: What Would Jesus Do? draws Portugal

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TAFKA: Time for the final draw of this round, number 24.

TAFKA: It's gonna be...

TAFKA: The first team drawn from the opening game of the competition - Costa Rica. I quite like this team you know.

TAFKA: And...ALLDAWSON draws them.

Draw 24: alldawson draws Costa Rica

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's see how that influences the groups of the competition...

Group A:

Germany -

Costa Rica - alldawson

Poland - kulex

Ecuador - Small Red

Just the hosts Germany up for grabs from Group A now, will anyone take them?

Group B:

England -

Paraguay -

Trinidad and Tobego - Michael

Sweden - Jam

No change here, England and Paraguay are left to be taken.

Group C:

Argentina -

Ivory Coast - TMM

Serbia and Montenegro - lafunky xxvii

Holland - Green Demon

TMM joins lafunky and Green Demon with the Ivory Coast. Argentina remain...

Group D:

Mexico - Chazmus

Iran - IAceI

Angola - Lost Soul & The Ace

Portugal - What Would Jesus Do?

Group D is complete as Angola and Portugal are drawn to Lost Soul and What Would Jesus Do? Got to fancy Mexico and Portugal, but the passion of Angola and Iran will have to be seen.

Group E:

Italy -

Ghana -

USA - Mr. Potato Head

Czech Republic - Jook

Ghana and Italy remain here with one round to go.

Group F:

Brazil - Lowedeck

Croatia - Second Stage Turbine Blade

Australia - The LBTN

Japan - Turbonegro

The second complete group, Croatia and Australia are going to have to work hard to catch up to their favoured opponents.

Group G:

France - Summers

Switzerland - Aaron Maiden

South Korea - Assassin

Togo -

Still a three-way at the moment, Togo are group underdogs to be drawn.

Group H:

Spain -

Ukraine - Hipster Doofus

Tunisia - The Kraig

Saudi Arabia - TAFKA Castroneves

Spain remain unchosen.

The Final Eight have numerous heavy-hitters, let's see who remains...
