Pop World Cup: Half*-Time Report

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Hosts Germany have found Group A anything but a walkover and are not even assured of qualification with strong challenges from unfancied Ecuador and highly-fancied Poland (ahem). Minnows Costa Rica are mathematically still in it but will be looking for a massive performance in the second half of the group stage in order to save themselves from the bottom spot.

Keep those entries coming. There's a link on the Poptimists info page to the game in case you want to vote later and can't be both'd to trawl through the usual nonsense.

*yes, one 'half' lasts a day and the other lasts five days. WHAT OF IT?

Yes, I didn't intend to (mis)represent you so much as offer an example that wasn't far from what we had before us. I wonder if anyone will consider that winning is more important than joining in the fun in the spirit in which it is intended (these two things don't have to be incompatible, of course).

No one likes a winner.

The only thing I want to win is Trig Brother, and the heart of some pretty maiden.
