Plans for CIS-2018.

I don't know who came up with the idea of holding CIS tournaments with the goal of traveling to new places...
The main event is always a "live" tournament with high-level players. For those who come to relax as spectators, resort options are definitely more interesting. For those who come as participants, it's not critical whether it's a resort or not, as long as there's a capable organizer.
Therefore, the key factors were, are, and will remain the local organizers. There are too many small details to sort out, and you need to be prepared for too many different situations. Therefore, going as "wildcards" to a place without a local organizer (i.e., an organizer who knows where, what, and how in that specific city) means risking the main tournament.
