Szeged WGC, how bad is it?

Hearing the rumours all over, that Szeged WGC is the worst organized
worlds ever. Why these "east block" countries get the comps all the
time? Playing the money card is total BS as if you fly $100K+
machines, you are afford to fly any where.

Any thoughts?


I am not at Szeged, so i cannot comment on Hungary, BUT
Slovakia was VERY well organized, so i think it is unfair to critize
'east block' countries (and not everyone is flying their own $100K+
machines).

You are right,

Slovakia is nice exception. But it is world championships, the comp of
all comps. It needs to run well, every single time. We've seen it so
many times when thing did not work on east and sorry to use this word
again, but that where the most hicups always are.(Again, not meaning
Slovakia)

- Well, maybe you can also refresh your memory with the fact that when
Italy literally dropped a ball only a year before organizing a WGC
after volunteering to do otherwise, Leszno came to help. I did not
hear anyone complaining. As far as "hicups" go, they are always
organized where the popularity is, so you are more than welcome to
start a "hicup" wherever that is you live in, let us now if you can
get a turn out rate of 120+ gliders...
