Most network issues, including configuration required to host games, is thoroughly covered on Run's WA help website (http://www.nanacide.com/wahelp/).
WormNET2 is the name of the online game network for Worms World Party. The difference is that WormNET2 is somewhat more secure - the game lists are encrypted, and the system uses challenge authentification - which prevents connecting with 3rd-party software and idly collecting IP addresses of hosted games.

Oh WormNet2 is WWP, thanks and I have a router so i need ports.
Edit: I need franpa to tell me because he has the same internet as me.

Penguins, for how long are you intending to ignore links to Run's www.nanacide.com/wahelp page? :-/
That page has FAQs and tutorials to answer all your questions over the last few days.

Wait I have, but I've forwarded all the ports, but it still won't let me create?

you have to allow them through your firewall... some firewalls will still block the game even if you disable them... and REQUIRE you to add the game to its exceptions and add the firewalls to its exlusion list.

Well, if you don't have the internal Windows firewall nor Norton, then there only are Zonealarm and McAffee tutorials left.
If you haven't any of those either, how could someone possibly make a screenshot for you?
Maybe you should have a look at the help section and/or manual of your firewall and learn for yourself how to open ports.
