Game to be played in the Spirit of a 2v2
Germany+Japan V UK+USSR
The 5th player will go to USA if they are available and the 6th to Italy.
Of course this is with the exception of Tonic who will bust our balls if he doesnt go Brazil :rofl:
Seems most often 4/6 are always ready to play so this way the game always goes on. If someone cannot make it we can decide wether to delay or in most cases be able to play on.
