I know it was never agreed that it would be held by the country of the winning team, but France would be a good location, n'est-ce pas?
Certainly a nation were the Blood Bowl tournament scene is thriving and popular would be good, to guarantee a good attendance. I think Spain, France and the UK would be great examples.
If it was held somewhere like Las Vegas, I doubt whether nearly 300 coaches would attend like last time. Correct me if I'm wrong... |

| I'd like to know when the location decision will be taken... IMO the Warhammer World is the best place for this event but if some want to do it in France and if we got time we surely could find a nice place too. |

I want it in Nottingham. And we all wear protest shirts and in the end we burn the place. 
No serious, indeed not in Nottingham. They had their chance. We as bloodbowl community have shown at world cup I that their is a huge fan base and what do they do to us ... Unbelievable. |

Agreed x2.
However, Venemous Breath mentioned a place (in Leicester?). |

In the US/Canada Chicago is rather middle-ish and with a 4 year notice get 100-150ish coaches from US/Canada easy. As far and the one coming up you could not get enough Europeans and British to travel that quickly.
Logistically France is almost central. Personally I would prefer Spain and the Plane cost for the Brits should be rather the same as to France.
Gaming Location:
Whatever is free and near some affordable food. Not too far from a Major airport (reasonable walking distance from the hotels) unless some locals are willing to run pickups |

Is the Stade de France free for a week-end in 2011? 
Again, even though there are some doubters about my presence, I'd go if I know in advance!

So, the election is done and the biggest shockwave from GW legal seems to have been dealt with.
Any chance of an update? |

When in 2011 would this tourney be? This would be awesome to attend!
WH World would be nice to go to.. but I understand if people aren't thrilled to play there if they do normally.
Vegas would be cool as well, although playing near Chicago is always a good time! |
