Bids will close in 2010 & it's more likely to be open for all the regions. But if the rotation stands then will be in Oceania & North America to host it.

Australia, Canada?, China?, England, Mexico, Netherlands & Belgium?, New Zealand?, Saudi Arabia?, Spain? & Turkey?

I want it to come to England unless we have a rubbish 2012 Olympics. We made football, we lost the 2006 bid so we should get it.

But Australia has huge stadiums.

I don't mind Canada but I think they don't care about Football. :whistle:

I voted other.

Reason being that I hope they give it to Mars.

And that all the soccer fans get free tickets and a free ride!

That way we'll all have a bit of peace and quiet in which to get on with things more constructive, relevant, and enjoyable.

Like what exactly? What exactly do you do that is so constructing and enjoyable for YOU then? Breed turtles?

England should get it. I read a few week's back that England will be likely to bid for it, pending the success of the Olympics.

There is also the fact that there are many stadium's in development. You have the new Wembley, The Emirates Stadium, Old Trafford, the new Anfield and The City Of Manchester Stadium. So thing's would be looking good by 2018...

We have not hosted it for a long time either, since 1966.

Wrong, Canada loves its soccer. It's #1 in terms of participation, even ahead of hockey. When Greece won Euro Cup and Italy the WC, the streets were absolutely littered. It was imposssible to walk, or drive on any of the majour streets in Montreal. I actually have some pics of it somewhere on my PC if u wanna see. Same thing with Toronto. You couldn't go anywhere without seeing the WC on TV.

Canadians love their soccer, especially the big tournies

That maybe the case in 2018 because lots of Canadian kids do like it, New MLS club for Toronto, Hosting the 2007 Under 20 World Cup. So their is interest.

But I don't think it's no.1.

It's quite funny... instead of posting "Who do you want to host the 2018 World Cup?" you should instead say "What country are you from?" as thats pretty much what every answer is :p

of course, most of us would love to see the greatest sporting event live in our own backyard

      "77ee94b helium/windows: winsparkle updater (built-in auto-update support on Windows" If that's what I think it is, that is about the only thing that's been missing from this excellent browser. I guess I'll find out the next time I'm on a Windows machine.

      Good point Anti-spoofing protection for cloud mailboxes Anti-spoofing technology in Microsoft 365 specifically examines forgery of the From header field (also known as the 5322.From address, From address, or P2 sender), because email clients show the From header value as the message sender. When Microsoft 365 has high confidence the From header is forged, the message is identified as spoofed. https://learn.microsoft.com/en...g-protection-spoofing-about
    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I sort of agree with you on that. I had a telescope - a real hefty thing, although only around 500CHF - that got me so fascinated about the stars and planets. I would stare for hours, amazed that I could see the craters of the moon or the rings of Saturn in "realtime" (quotations because, y'know, speed of light and whatnot). A friend of mine has a telescope like the one mentioned in the review, and the pictures are amazing to look at. But there is something missing for me. I may as well just go to NASA's website and look through their gallery.
    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      As opposed to catching bad press because it's the engine's fault? The engine has all the tools a dev needs to optimize their game, Epic isn't gonna hold their hand to make sure they use them. Also, Epic isn't forcing anyone to use Lumen, Nanite or super high resolution meshes and textures. Just because Nanite can render meshes with millions of polygons doesn't mean you should use it like that, in fact, Epic recommends you avoid doing that. Most of the stuttering can easily be fixed by cutting down on unique materials by using master materials, using instanced meshes or combining meshes, generating a thorough PSO cache to allow shader pre-compilation and also managing what must be loaded and unloaded at runtime. It's up to the developer to set all that up properly and no the engine can't do all that for you that's not how any of this works.
