Happy new year, fellow /sp/artans. 2025 saw the end of 13 years of hurt as /sp/ finally bagged another championship in the Summer. We are now 3 weeks away from the Winter Cup and >our title defence kicking off, and 23 players to represent the board must be chosen. This thread is for suggesting players (their names and how they will look), general aesthetics like kits, music or anything else relevant to the team. The 23 players who make the squad will be chosen in a poll next weekend.>What is this?A sitewide divegrass (sawker) cup where each board makes their own team of players relevant to the board's topic and culture, and play them against each other in CPU vs CPU matches on Pro Evolution Soccer. Although the players aren't controlled directly, the teams and tactics are handled by real people.>Can I join?There's always a need for people who can help test tactics or create aesthetics. We'll teach you everything you need to know, and how much time you put in is up to you.

>>152783510>>152783527i still can't believe /sp/ won after so many years of hurt. thank you managers
do >we get to make/suggest the reffie models or do the aesco fags do that themselves
>>152783961We send a list to them since they have to get the models to make them work >>152783550Still feels unreal tbqh
>>152783961feel free to suggest any reffie you have in mind, just remember that it can't be a player currently on the team
>>152783550It was about time>>152783961Forgot to add that to the OP; we choose the in-game referees and the final boss (a joke team the cup winner plays with all 99 stats). We're going for 8 referees + 2 dedicated linesmen, and picking at least 6 head referees and probably the 2 linesmen internally. The last two will probably be picked through a consensus but if people wanna poll them we can consider that.We're open to suggestions for both referees and final boss, as we haven't picked anything yet.
>>152784314Just to add to this we can make certain referees appear only on certain days, so one idea we have is having for example My reffies :) moonlight as a cup referee on days where /sp/ don't play.
>>152783510Thank you, based godsAfter winning the fucking thing, I really don’t feel like changing any playersGotta think about the music and so on … sorry for the useless message, I just wanted to say that I love you and all the players for making this possible
