I don't see how one person's personal issue with one of the hosts should affect the bid itself. If Sarzonia is really picky about the hosts - and he seems to be, given every tournament sign-up he makes is conditional upon the host - then that's his problem. If ASMV and Qazox are worthy of being hosts, they shouldn't be denied the opportunity just for a single guy's qualms. Sarzonia can always decline to play if he wants.

I really do not appreciate the tone with which you took your comments regarding my issues with Qazox. Rather than turn this into a bitchfest and air out any more dirty laundry than I've already done, I'll just say that my decision on what to do should this bid win has already been made.

That said, I do have one question, and a comment:
Question for both hosts - individually: Hosting a World Cup is a long and trying experience, and one that has all sorts of things happen - I'd argue that no other hosting experience in NS is quite like it, and (other than possibly the Olympics) especially as the sign-up numbers grow exponentially, no other hosting experience is as challenging. Frequently, I've noticed that the best-run cups seem to be run by a team that includes one former WC host, which your bid lacks. So, simply put: why pair with each other, as opposed to individually finding another fmr. host to work with?
Comment: Qazox has, well, a checkered past when it comes to his history with the World Cup - including times where he's blatantly deceived the community to get around the rules in place. Most of that happened a long time ago, and if I had a vote when Qazox was offered a place back in the community, I likely would have supported it. Unfortunately, I came across this post in another NS Sports thread that has me questioning that anything has changed on his part. And to be frank, trust is, in my opinion, one of the most important parts of a World Cup Hosting Bid; if you don't trust the hosts' ability to run it the way that it should be run, then their bid doesn't pass muster.
I'm sorry to say that I can't trust that this bid would be a good choice.

Blatantly lying for years to get around the rules, accusing all hosts of fixing the results against him, calling one entire tournament's results invalid, and having inconsistency in other events he has hosted.
