I don't think there are any countries in Antarctica lolbigfeh wrote:
dude, jesus, how can you people be so clueless
antarctica isn't a country, it's a continent. as such there are A LOT OF COUNTRIES THERE
I'd assume you would hold the flag of whichever country you were in at the time you registered, for obvious reasons. Unless, that is, you're in Marie Byrd land, which is really nobody's (it's actually the largest unclaimed territory in the planet, by far)
in which case dude what the fuck are you doing playing osu!

The Antarctic Treaty explicitly mentions the following in Article IV § 2: "No acts or activities taking place while the present Treaty is in force shall constitute a basis for asserting, supporting or denying a claim to territorial sovereignty in Antarctica. No new claim, or enlargement of an existing claim, to territorial sovereignty shall be asserted while the present Treaty is in force".
As we all know, the Antarctic Treaty was signed in June 23, 1961, and explicitly only covers claims made after it was signed. So yes, there are seven states which maintain territory claims in Antarctica.olivia272 wrote:

Claiming territory is kind of what "makes a country be somewhere".konkonation wrote:

Before telling other people to get their shit straight (and implying or explicitly calling them stupid), maybe you guys should get your shit straight first. How about that?

I would emphasize the "kind of", which was supposed to indicate what you just said, but there's no arguing that this is moar completeRenevant wrote:

There's a difference between a territory claim and a country. Yes, "Land claims are a legal declaration of desired control over areas of property including bodies of water. " (which is basically the same definition as a county) . But, "The phrase is usually only used with respect to disputed or unresolved land claims." Which is basically what Antarctica is. It's not appropriate to call it a country in this situation. Especially since this treaty expires soon.

So what are the qualifications for The World Cup? I know some countries have first place players that are around 2500-3000pp. They certainly wont be able to participate in The World Cup.

Yeah imagine Africa being an actual place lmfaoKouya- wrote:

Well, I'm pretty sure no one would live in Antarctica and play osu anytime soon. So basically there's no chance at all for Antarctica to participate in the world cup.

Thats where you are wrong. In the ever-thawing tip of Antarctica, there's a small little island with a village of igloos that is inhabited by 50 penguins, 25 seals, 12.5 orcas and a human. It is formally called us Setsunation, ruled by none other than - ISetsunaI -.bigfeh wrote:

because continents can't participate
Well besides the nonsense i say sometimes, i did ask a legitimate question, it was answered, and now im asking for more. I also wanted to know what qualifications it takes to get into the World Cup (i mean, scientists can do anything right?)Aurani wrote:

Unsure, but you still haven't "properly discussed" anything or "taken a dump" on it as you said you wouldAurani wrote:

Are you just choosing to be blind or did you not notice the "MOVE IT INTO OFF-TOPIC" part? I'm not going to annoy some random mod with too much power by starting a rather insulting conversation with someone in GD. In OT, I can freely say my opinion, which I would've done if this was there, and not here.bigfeh wrote:

Well there are people/scientist there all over the world studying there for a fixed time (varies from 6 months - several years). Kind of like the space thingy where all dem astronauts go on a field trip :3Aurani wrote:
