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.

I confirm. I'm also ready to help the organizers in Yekaterinburg; I can meet someone there or do something else.

Merlin, when are you coming to visit us? I think you were planning to come in early February...

Figure out the version yourselves) but if there will be VT (just in case), I'm even ready to participate)

As an option, we can use the same base as before, and everything else... the main thing is that internet access appears there... the base is budget-friendly, but everything seemed to be working fine.

To avoid conflicts with various Grand Prix events (April 29 - May 1), we should consider holding the CIS tournament from May 6 to May 14. This will also allow participants to take only 3 days off (May 10-12) instead of 4 (May 2-5). As practice shows, conducting 4-5 rounds in 11 days is just as challenging as doing so in 9 days.

Guys, let's quickly decide on the dates and location - right now, S7 is selling tickets to Yekaterinburg for 8200 rubles round trip from Moscow, but this deal will end soon, and everything will be much more expensive.

Well, if you're fixated on the S7, you need to hurry. Although, on Pobeda, it's 5000 rubles round trip... on Ural Airlines, it's 6500...

Minsk-Yekaterinburg from 270 euros per person. That’s all from me.

Of course, if you want to consider hand luggage checked as baggage, be my guest.

Sure, if you want to consider carry-on luggage that's been checked as baggage, be my guest.

You're so tedious. You pay extra for baggage and get the same price as S7.

P.S. I can't imagine why one guy needs a 20-kilogram suitcase for a week-long vacation. Are you bringing booze with you?

Maybe I'm missing something, but why the rush? There are still over three months until May!
Let both cities submit proposals with a program and price list, then allow some time for price optimization, and then we can make an informed decision!

Also, when making the decision, it's important to consider whether those who voted for one city will be able to travel to the other.
The main criterion, as I understand it, is to maximize the number of participants?
And I'm sure that Yekaterinburg will be significantly cheaper in any scenario than Sochi (which means we have a +9 advantage :p).

You are wrong about the timing; May bookings are already being made in full swing, and even more so in Sochi.
To be more specific about the "Yekb proposal," I invite all those who want to help to join us in creating a plan (who will go where to gather information) this Saturday, January 21, 2017 (the day after Trump's inauguration:D) at Sheinkmana 9, office 71, Yekaterinburg, at 4:30 PM. My mobile number is +7922 20 30 280. We will create a plan of who will go where, collect all the data, and process it on Sunday, and then we will post it here.
If you have any questions, write to me on ICQ and Skype (I'm always online on my phone).
