The TKLC (Trav Khar Lug Championship) has been formed this year. Usually Gonzdara hosts the GLC (Gonzdara Lug Championship) but this year they are taking it a step further, by inviting nations all over Trav Khar to compete against their championship team. King Mercer says he hopes this will be an oppurtunity to teach Trav Khar about Gonzdarian customs by playing a traditional Gonzdarian sport. Teams from all over the region will be invited to Lugville, the city where the sport was founded back in 1812. They will spend a week touring through Lugville and learning about Gonzdara. Then when the week is over they, as well as the hosting Gonzdarian team will compete for "however long it takes" which is the usual time phrame of a Lug match. Pictures of Lugville: Photo of the Seket Stadium All nations interested in participating must fill out this form Nation- Name of team- Players positions and last names (6)- Experience in game (a scale of 0-3, zero being none, one being some, two being alot, three being very very much)- W/L record (in the TKLC)- Significant facts about team/history (if any)- also, you must fill out this template for your uniforms (just use paint)- I look forward to seeing all of you in Lugville! [/b]Rules of Lug[/b] Lug is played by two teams of six people. Two people on each team are the Throwers, three are Catchers, and one is the Blocker. The Throwers attempt to get the ball (called Luggot) and throw it through one of three hoops, on their enemy side (each team has 3), that are suspended in the air on poles. The Throwers can push enemy players with their shoulders and knees, but cannot directly tackle or grab them. All Throwers must wear a cloth attached to their belt The Blocker stands in a medium sized rectangle that is near the goals but not directly next to them, the rectangle is very narrow but stretches the entire length of the field. The Blocker attempts to block incoming goals with a small net on a pole he is carrying. The Blocker is allowed the most physical contact with other players, if an enemy player comes near his rectangle he can grab, trip, tackle, hit, or even use his net to stop them, however if the thrower does get past the Blocker, they have a free shot at the goals. The Catchers cause even more problems for the throwers. They chase the Throwers down and attempt to grab the cloth on the Throwers belt, the Catcher will then attach the cloth to his own belt. When the Throwers cloth is taken, he must stand on the sidelines until his teams Catchers can get the cloth from the other team's Catcher and return it to their own. When trying to catch the cloth from a Thrower, the Catchers are only allowed to tackle them, but when they are trying to get the cloth from an opposing Catcher, they are allowed as much free reign as the Blockers have to hit, grab, trip, pull, ect. The Catchers also have the task of defending their own Throwers from the oposing Catchers. When defending a Thrower from another Catcher, the Catchers can grab, trip, and tackle, but not directly hit them.

Nation: Gonzdara Name of team: The Musketeers Player's positions and last names: Amengale (Blocker), Lewis (Thrower), Froid (Thrower), Manford (Catcher), Daniels (Catcher), Copperfield (Catcher). Experience in game- 3 W/L record- 0/0 (18/6 in GLC) Significant facts/history- The Musketeers were one of the first teams to play in the NGLL (National Gonzdara Lug League). They could be considered the greatest team to play the sport, due to them being in over 1/3 of all the GLCs (Gonzdara Lug Championships) to date. This team is centered in Knight Castle (the city where most Knights are recruited), which has caused people to believe that the Musketeers are actually Gonzdarian Knights, which would explain why they play so well. Uniforms- (The Musketeers have abandoned their old uniforms, and in celebration of the first TKLC, they have adopted a uniform that moreso represent Gonzdara as a whole.)

To do the uniforms, save the picture, doctor it up in paint, and then upload it to photobucket (if you make one now it will help your factbook ALOT, its where I got all of my pictures), then use the IMG code from the picture and post it here.
I know this takes awhile, so you can sign up now and ill go ahead and add you to our roster, just do the uniform later.
