[MR] 12th night bid

[logan]

if that is true then i would support the only bid submitted being accepted
(assuming the site was acceptable, the event planned correctly, et al).  i
don't think kingdom level events should be held in the far boundaries of the
kingdom however.  but if it's the only option in the end i say go with what
you have.  if the deadline is extended and nothing more centrally located is
found then i guess it will have to be done that way.  

 but im not involved in the bid committee nor am i heir to the throne.  just
looking in from the outside.

Sorry my good Lord, no other bids were present and distance was the reason
for declining our bid.

in all fairness we only heard one side of the story.  what if there were
other bids and all of the bids were equal save the location?  if that is the
case then in order to serve the kingdom in the best way one would have to
decline the more distant (from center) bids.  im just shooting in the dark
since i know nothing of the circumstances that the bid committee had to
weigh but i find it hard to believe that the bid was turned down solely
based on location.  i could be wrong of course.  i just think there must be
more to the story and i would caution people to reserve judgment on things
until they know all the facts.
