Qualifying Tournaments

Welcome to the Qualifying Tournaments, the prelude to the XVI Simlympic Games!

Qualifying Tournaments are held to prune the number of competitors in certain events for which there is a limit on the number of competitors in the games proper (normally team sports). The Tournaments are held prior the the games Opening Ceremony, and are like having all the preliminary rounds early.

The Tournaments are not hosted by the main games host, but rather are held in other countries of the sim-world. Current ISC policy is that unsuccessful Simlympics bidders get first rights on the tournaments, but the rest is first-come-first-served. Tournament hosts are expected to supply venue pictures and associated information, and to be available to post the results any time up to the 4th of June, similar to how its done during the Simlympics.

For the summer games, there are 16 qualifying tournaments to be held, in the following sports:
Baseball (Mens) - canuck3360
Basketball (Mens) - wacky32
Basketball (Womens) - wacky32
Football (Mens) - Simul8ter8
Football (Womens) - Simul8ter8
Handball (Mens) - ottoh11
Handball (Womens) - ottoh11
Hockey (Mens) - 111222333444
Hockey (Womens) - 111222333444
Rugby Sevens (Mens) - ggamgus
Rugby Sevens (Womens) - ggamgus
Softball (Womens) - canuck3360
Volleyball (Mens) - mystic.destiny

I might just be tired, but I'm confused about this, like how does it work and stuff

You volunteer to hold a tournament, I send you the results, you add pictures and post it. Quite simple really

I haven't limited how many, but be sensible about it. At this stage pick two and let everyone have a chance. If they aren't all taken by Tuesday, feel free to take some more then.

JJ: Any ones in particular?

M/W Basketball.. how many arenas would one need??

Can I pick up M/W Football? I would be using my city Butan-Chi, Hokkodo.

Joe asked me.... I answered.

Is there like a waiting list.

Since I picked football and so did Liberator444.
After the bidders decide, would I get football or would Liberator444.

Maybe you guys should choose two competitions, one you prefer, one backup, then if alec or wacky chooses one then you can go with the other

Linktoria would like to volunteer to host Mens Basketball and Womens Basketball.

The City of Uta in New Brunton would like to host the Mens and Womens Qualifying Tournament for Volleyball.

Yay thank you for not choosing football!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the link to the stadium. I had to space it out because of the 7-day rule.

Added pictures to my bid on the previous page.. Looks like there is a lot of interest .. good luck to all and hope that some of these nations bid for the games next time around as some of the stadiums look great.

So when will it be announced who got which ones?
