The Bids

There were 3 bids originally put forward for C14. Two of them were disqualified, leaving the vote between Ybor and Boo's Pants. It was decided that if Boo's Pants won that the bid process would reopen.

The original bids were:

• Ybor City WINNER bid site
• Dallas bid site
• Hollywood bid site

The Voting

Ybor won.

The Drama

The vote process that led to Angel, Bob and Rafe winning was the target of huge drama.

The Dallas (Hansel von Quenzer, Helena Jones, Fasciogoth, Dorothy, L3g3nd Q) and Hollywood (Bellz, Marissa, Alumiere, Becca, Guy, Christal, Boon and Trid) bids violated the bid process rules, and as such had to be disqualified.

This upset a number of people.
