I am not bias to any of the Worlds locations. Anything outside of being in the extreme upper midwest is a plane ride anyway. I do, however find the weather/mother nature arguements to be interesting.
Correct me if I am wrong, but didnt Hawaii experience a huricane and an earthquake the day after 2007 Worlds? Both on the same day; or perhaps one after the other. Yet it seems PUI was very willing to go there again this year. I am not too sure what exactly goes in to all of the decission making as to where Worlds will be held every year, but unless a catastrophic storm or earthquake hit, and a bunch of players were injured, etc, I doubt that weather has a great deal to do with it.
I do like the idea of Worlds being in different locations every year. I enjoy seeing other cities that I may not normally get to see. Is it expensive, YES. Pretty much anywhere you go now days is. Is it going to stop me from attending events? NO. As long as I can afford it, I will be there. If I cant, there is always the chance to go next year. And who knows, it may be in a city I would really like to visit.:thumb:
