GREETINGS /strek/
The 4th edition of the 8chan Cup is fast approaching. First kickoff is set for January 4th, 2019 at 08:00PM UTC and your board is a part of it. The Cup will be a 32 team tournament, first with a group stage followed by the 16 team Knockout Round, all to determine a champion board of the site. The 3rd editon of the Cup saw the debut of 15 different boards, all of which are returning to shoot for glory once again, amongst revived boards and a few new ones as well. The Cup is being defended by >>>/christian/, who grinded out a 1-0 victory in the Finals over newcomers >>>/ita/. Eternal powerhouse >>>/bane/ managed to claim 3rd place over >>>/strek/ (that's you) by stopping the Trekkies potent offense and pouring on four goals of their own. For a full breakdown of the 2018 Summer Cup, please take a look at the wiki http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/The_8chan_Cup
In 2019, your board has been drawn into Group H, with /wooo/, /cow/, and /pone/. Please use this thread for pre-tournament hype and also any MINOR tweaks that may need to be made.

Burnham should be the captain. If the team loses then you can blame racism and sexism.

Very nice, I'm glad to see we're doing this again.
>>28164
We did actually have Data (and Lore and B4) as the subs, but the list that the anon has only shows the Weyouns for some reason and they never showed up as the subs during the game. No idea why. The roster pic shows him as a sub for Swolecard.
>>28167
I don't know if I have the heart to put Michael Sue on the same team as /ourguys/, but if there's more interest, we'll see.
In any case, as the guy who made the roster and kits and whatever, let me know if you want some changes to the team. I'm guessing the emblem and kits will stay the same.

I'll make sure they make it in this time then.

Thank you. It wasn't that big of an issue since I don't think the subs ended up mattering that much, but still.

aww, nice, we're through. Group G is still so open-ended, so who know who we'll end up going against. We've played both /just/ (won, but barely and only thanks to Swolecard) and /ita/ (lost in penalties), so I'm hoping either /unna/ and /ausneets/ will be our next match.
