As some might know, I've been a big part of the host city process since the beginning. At the start I would make logos and rage if they didn't win the selection and now I make logos and rage if they don't win the selection and also help in the background with the process and eventually with the creation of the host city fields. For a while that meant making secondary logos if they weren't already provided and making new endzones and other parts of the field for every championship game. A while back I standardized a lot of these assets, from the team endzones to the the helmet logos on the field and replaced the secondary logos with flags representing the city on the sideline, which was huge for streamlining and limiting that workload.
Anyways one of the other things I did recently was make a spreadsheet to bring the information on past host cities together a bit more, as I was finding myself losing track of previous winners after 10+ seasons of the host city program. Either myself or DarknessRising have been linking that sheet, which I've continued to update, in the announcements for new host city competitions every season and you can see it here: LINK
On that spreadsheet right now you can see an image which I also recently put together to visualize the various locations that have hosted one of the championship games or the WFC tournament in past seasons. I created this to help myself better understand where all we've been with our host cities and hope you find that information as well.
Anyways I just wanted to make a post about where things are with the host city and where we've been since starting this in S28. In addition to that, as we lead up to the S41 Host City competition and the seasons beyond, I'd love to start a conversation about any changes that people may want to see, or just locations in which people would like to see the host city go to in the future. Please do so either in the comments or by answering the poll at the top of this post.
