Ok, Bamble, You have been removed from the sign-up. Reminder everyone, Votes are needed tonight

[O\'Hara_fan]

Votes hopefully sent

[PluckaDuck]

Hello everybody, I've got some bad news.

I think I'm going to have to call the sign-up quits :cry:

I'm at my dads every 2nd week, and his computer has broken,and he said there's no chance of it being fixed anytime soon.
Therefore, I think it's unfair for people who have signed up to stick around, and only be provided with updates every now and again.

I'd like to thank you all very much for signing-up, but I simply can't do it. it's not fair on you guys.

Once again, a massive thanks to Paul for letting me take this over, I'm just sorry I can't go through with it

I'm very sorry, Pluckaduck

[glennuk]

:( bye bye USA

[Tomaldinho]

Guatemala win by default? Unlucky Plucka, was looking forward to defending my crown.

At least I'll forever be the Champion for FM08 :d
