So yeah - just a basic brochure - check out the other thread for the current applicants and email me yours when it is ready to be uploaded. Also - 9 stadiums? Normally FIFA requires 10 - but lets see that plan, mate! And Emre - just let me know when you are done.

NYCD 2012 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Just wondering how we're choose the shortlist ? Will it be a small group deciding or are we giving the points Eurovision style ?
james Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 I am gladyly to anounce here that I know I may not come out due to some circumstance beyond my control in this forum. The forum has had enough of my nerves and that may play a part. At the end, I would say, "I tried my best but it wasn't good enough".
KRATK Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 I will have the Chile brochure today I guess...

James - the applicant report will decide whether or not your bid is good enough. Until then, self depreciation is not needed. If you make it to the next round then you will have to step up your efforts. Until that is decided do not stress. Just wondering how we're choose the shortlist ? Will it be a small group deciding or are we giving the points Eurovision style ? I'm going to write up a report weighting each bid based on the venue plan. I will then send my report to a couple of other GBidders for comment. I will also ask someone else to rate my own bid based against the other bids. The public vote wll decide the winner.
thatsnotmypuppy Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Posted December 11, 2007 I have posted the Chilean bid brochure and Spain should be up soon. If we could have all oustanding brochures by the end of the week I can then release the report and shortlist next week giving you all the Xmas break to organise the next stage and bid book. Ta!
baron-pierreIV Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 I need 1 week more for the UK (or US) bid. My team is very busy with other bids right now.
thatsnotmypuppy Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Posted December 11, 2007 You have 4 days - make it work!
Citius Altius Fortius Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 just a recommendation for a "next" competition - all bid brochures should be published at once - due the people, who sent their bid brochures last, have an advantage (they can fix/improve their brochures accordingly the previous published ones)
thatsnotmypuppy Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Posted December 11, 2007 Good point - I'll do that with the next stage. Until all submissions are in I wont put any up. I did think that the having seen the Chile and Spain books. Needless to say Aaron's will probably the most aesthetically pleasing though. He has a way with Microsoft word that leaves me breathless To be honest I think the Aust and Gulf Region bid brochures are what I hoped everyone would do - but flashy graphics and colourful pictures now means you'll be repeating yourself soon.
arwebb Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 Puppy, I'm going to have to stand down from the All-Ireland bid due to a lack of time to be able to properly do it. If anyone wants to take it on, they are welcome to PM me and I will give them all the assistance I can.
thatsnotmypuppy Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Posted December 11, 2007 Fair enough Arwebb - however as you can see by the differing standards of contributions - the first phase is basically a quick outline and a stadium list... All good though. Spain is online now too.
ghost1 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Well, seing the other brochures, Bulgaria-Romania seems too realistic. Most of the other bids include many made up stadia and capacities, out of the 12 arenas in my bid only one is additional (and therefore made up), all the others are existing projects. Hope that wouldn't cost me many points.
Aronious Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Hey Aaron _ I was wondering if a competition would lure you back! Glad to see you here! Well, it was a coicidence actually. I've found myself too busy (till now) to drop by GB.com...accept for a quick check on to your comment following the Ruddslide (long cheer!) Plus everyone knows west australians come out of communication hybernation in summer! Word of warning- you're playing with fire matey! Snubbing Tasmania and Gosford in favour for Darwin and Townsville in your bid!!! That fish and chip shop chick who won Big Brother II and Ricky Ponting wont be pleased! Bold yes, but also sensible...Why? Well Gosford is merely a closet Sydney while Tasmania offers nothing more than further drop in votes for the Green come next election. Cyclone cities all the way i say!!

Hope that wouldn't cost me many points. Well only 1 entirely new stadium will be needed for the New Zealand bid. The rest are upgrades (mostly temporary), although some more extreme than others....New Zealands ageing rugby sheds need a football face lift!
thatsnotmypuppy Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Posted December 12, 2007 OK - New Zealand is now posted. Baron - are you seriously submitting a US or UK bid? Emre - how is the Greece/Turkey/Cyprus brochure going? I'll cut this thing off at noon this Saturday - Melbourne AEDST time.

Hope that wouldn't cost me many points. It's all spending pretend money. Anyway, we've only got two brand new stadia _ Brisbane and a temporary thing in Darwin a la London. The rest are all seating upgrades basically.

I was waiting for some more heat in the comments after the Ruddslide. I remember a few passionate exchanges with I think it was yourself and Eruedan during and after the 2004 election. I thought long and hard about the Taswegians. Then I thought bugger it, I've wasted too much brain effort on them. Everyone in Gosford/Central Coast works in Sydney anyway.
