Asunto: Contest - Division II u18 National Team World Championship Bid

if we are the only ones, how could we not win? we are winners by default

And I thought we were going to be winners because of our mascot background

I suppose that PPM could decide that they just don't like our bid, but we will in fact likely be the winners by default (unless there is a last minute Estonian bid or something).

The bid has officially been accepted. Congratulations to all the organizers on winning their prizes.

Really nice work to get this thing going, capsaicin

Agreed, way to go on organizing the bid.

Yes way to go and let us try for more in the future. Great job.

pefhaps we could already try to build/design (or think about) logo and mascot for any future event so we dont have to rush. Some of the logos/mascot for this year world championship were pretty nice.

Thanks everyone and thank you for your contributions. I'm surprised there hasn't been a U.S. bid in the past, especially since some groups end up with no bid at all (as would have ultimately been the case for u18 division II). The reward is certainly incentive menough.

Some countries, like Slovakia, seem to have effectively updated previously used websites for future bids. It would be worthwhile to draft future logos and mascots, but there is no rush.

I'm happy that the runner-up mascot never saw the light of day to compete with those other mascots.

I had wanted to do something much earlier, but the other bids were insane. I think one bid was offering a glass trophy or something. And several were offering thousands of credits. I pretty much never looked at it again.
