Guys, it's mid-January, and there's practically no information about CIS 2017. I'd like to know if there are any people interested in organizing it, even though it's not a particularly rewarding task. Or should we start making other plans for May? If anyone is considering it, please post in this thread. The main thing is not to delay, as it's very difficult to organize such an event in just a couple of months. Maybe some helpers will appear. I can offer advice based on my experience organizing CIS 2016, so that we don't repeat the same mistakes.

Well, if it's the same person from Sochi, then yes, it's taking a while... I'd like to have more options and not at the last minute. There's an option with Yekaterinburg, but you need to contact Sergey freeshe for details.

The option with Yekaterinburg is very appealing... +1

If the Ekaterinburg option works, I'll get started and provide all the information within a week; there are enough venues available. However, I must state upfront that I'm against excessive alcohol consumption, so if I organize it, the focus will be on a Heroes tournament.

Contact Aloun and Co. Extra hands will be helpful.

This is perfect for us.

Will alcohol be prohibited?

Will alcohol be prohibited?

No, of course not. The consumption of alcohol and the location of the tournament will simply be separate. Therefore, where they play Heroes, they play Heroes, not poker or some other game. There will be a dedicated space for Heroes.
For poker, I can gather feedback from those who are particularly interested, invite professional dealers for a few days (for a fee), and rent tables or felt.
For those who want to drink, there will be rooms, a restaurant (cafe), the street, the forest, pine trees, and other joys of life.
P.S. Please note - this is purely my vision of the situation; everyone may disagree, and I will not insist. I simply don't want to organize an event in chaos (it's too much trouble for the organizer to run around and watch over grown men).

Serezha, that's an excellent plan – I like it. I just wanted to clarify.

It might be a surprise to some, but a CIS event was already held in Yekaterinburg! Therefore, the options with existing venues have likely been considered. To avoid repeating a lot of work, contact Merlin; I think he can advise on what and how. The venue we used was too far from the city, about 40 minutes by car, if I remember correctly. +1 for Yekaterinburg in 2017 and Odessa in 2018! Let's do it again! :smile14: The prospects in Sochi are too vague.

To avoid redoing a large amount of work, contact Merlin; I think he can advise you on what and how. The base we used was too far from the city, about 40 minutes by car, if I remember correctly.

Kostya, over the past few years, about a dozen new bases have been built, and besides, you were at Khrystalnaya, which is about 40 km from Yekaterinburg; at the CIS event in St. Petersburg, we traveled 100 km from the city. So, I don't think this is a major issue. It all comes down to infrastructure and money. You could even rent apartments in the city center with luxurious halls for games and poker, and a restaurant downstairs; it's a matter of finances.
