View the Offical Bid Currently Under Construction! Entire Bid Now Up and Readable!

Rigado and welcome to the Comments Thread of the Weburg June 2011 Games Bid! Feel free to put any questions, comments or concerns about the bid!

Very nice so far, supremely detailed

Left me with one word

DAMN!

[In the good way]

Outstanding, can't wait for the ingame pictures, one of the more detailed bids i've seen.

Very good, but why do you have Bill Clinton as your PM?

You mean Ned Ferro? The picture of him is actually Bill Clinton's official U.S. Presidential photograph that I found.

Yup.

Maxisland sure is an appropriate name...

Wasn't this region a downloaded region made by Wren Weburg on his old site? (Link)

Which ones?

the picture listed as downtown Weburg is almost identical. It appears this region was downloaded and then stadiums were added... if you look at the picture with the names of all the cities and then read the page you'll notice every city name mentioned on the sc4ever page is on the region

Actually, none of the pics are from that site. And yes that's the downloaded region. I just modified it for this bid. Also notice a couple of Simgoober's high rises in downtown Weburg?

Here's a new picture of downtown Weburg taken by me. There is still a dominance of Maxis buildings, but since I have the CAM, non-Maxis buildings have appeared as well. And in case Weburg does win the bid to host the Games, I have plopped several deluxe police stations enough to cover the entire tile occupied by downtown Weburg. You can ignore the downtown Weburg pic on the bid thread, that one is now out-of-date.

Update: just ignore the pic below, an even newer version is on the bid thread. Click the link in the first post on this page!

Oh, that airport should be one of the world's most dangerous! Look that cliff in the edge of the runway!

And the other one you have in your bid is a little bit bumpy no?

Nice! Why don't you edit out the old pic in your application, and put this one in? Because I don't think the ISC looks at comments threads when they choose the city

There is a good chance they will though but if it isn't part of the official bid (the comment thread isn't that) then..... you know the rest

The Bid it's self is what we judge on not the comments I know for my case half the time I only read the comment threads cause I have to monitor the site lol

Updated the downtown Weburg venue pic and replaced the dinner theater attraction pic with that of the Fox Theater. What's ironic about it is that the marquee looks very similar to that of Detroit's Fox Theater.

Currently the Fox Theater in Weburg is selling tickets for the screening of the ISC Session in late April which determines whenever or not Weburg will host the next Simlympiad. If Weburg wins, then expect cheers from the theater, if it loses then expect boos.

I have posted the background of the tickets as well as a sponsor update. Click the link on the first post of page 1!

Nice bid. But I must say, the resemblance of this bid with the Chihiro 2010 bid is rather uncanny, in terms of formatting and style(color scheme, presenters, venue info format, presentation template, question and answer, internal assessment of bid), no? I just wished there was some form of originality in the style/format/look of your bid(other than the PPT) instead of just copying and pasting my bid's entirety and replacing it with your information.
