World Baseball Classic 37 Signup Thread (Signups closed)

Postby Nova Anglicana » Tue Jul 26, 2016 9:02 am

As WBC Council President, it is my duty and honor to open signups for the 37th edition of our beloved baseball tournament. Please sign up and place your host bids below. All other discussion save for questions over host bids should go in the WBC Discussion Thread.

There has to be a deadline for host bids, so at the moment, that deadline will be 19:00 EST (UTC-4) on Tuesday, August 9th. Host bids are recommended to, but do not necessarily have to resemble past bids. Here are some examples of previous winning bids.

The winning bid from WBC 36, Chromatika.
The winning bid from WBC 35, Nova Anglicana.
The winning bid from WBC 34, Saintland.


Puppets are allowed at a maximum of one per nation and must be confirmed by the master nation, but in the end, it is up to the host whether to include them or not.This post also acts as a signup for Nova Anglicana.

Speaking as a past host, I'm fine with it, but my larger concern is that you just hosted WBC 36. While you did a great job, traditionally I like to see some fresh faces cycling through (though I'd have no objection to you hosting again in a couple cycles). Of course if nobody else wants to do it, then by all means, yes please!
