Club championship of the CIS countries.

As I understand it, the main problem for players from distant locations (up to the planned city where the championship will be held) is the high cost of travel. What if we considered this option: if a player is willing to travel, say, from Siberia to Kyiv, but doesn't have enough money (or it's still too expensive considering the return on investment), then we guarantee compensation for travel expenses (or part of them) from the prize pool. I don't think the prize pool will be very large, and it won't be enough for everyone – both the participants and the winners. But personally, money isn't important to me in this case. If I took a respectable prize-winning place, I would be satisfied with the status of a winner and a T-shirt or a cup. That would be enough. Then we could organize a real, proper, and good tournament in one place, which would give us the opportunity to find sponsors and announce to everyone that this is the final, not a semi-final or something else! But we need to take the financial issue seriously (because where there is money, there are disputes), and those who could travel without any particular problems should not submit applications like: "I also want compensation." Let's not argue, but offer normal (not radical) solutions so as not to change the whole meaning of the Heroes' celebration we started. We held qualifying rounds to determine who is currently the strongest in the Heroes community. It would be bad if some of the legitimate finalists from the qualifying rounds couldn't make it to the final! I don't think we should change Kyiv as the location. There is a very big difference between it and Michurinsk (we would need Nagana too). Please don't criticize too harshly; I just really want the final to take place, and not just for the sake of it, but to be a real celebration! It's painful to read when arguments start where they shouldn't be
