User blog:KommunistKoala AP/2017 Mapperdonian Olympic Games Applications

Hi. In case you haven't seen, I've been editting the Olympics pages recently. I have decided that I will make Olympics a yearly thing instead of a monthly thing, so it can be easier for me to do everything.

I plan on having the next Olympics this June/July. The current host, Ether, has been inactive for a month and it says 2016 on its logo anyways, but I feel like I should have another application process just to be more organized and to also build hype for the games. This time, I will be more strict so there are not as many bids. There will be 2 rounds: the first one is where all applicants send in their information. Then, a committee of 2-5 people (I will tell you guys who they are) will review each application. If an application passes, it will become a candidate and that is where people vote. This time, there will either be 2 or 3 rounds in the voting. The countries with the lowest bids will be eliminated etc. Here is what you'll need to be considered as a candidate city:
 * MOST IMPORTANTLY: You have to be a member of the Mapperdonian Olympic Committee. The committee might not accept applicants who just joined the committee, so if you want good chances at getting rights to host, I suggest you join the MOC now and bid next year. However, since it's only the second games, this rule doesn't apply as much.
 * The name of your city and nation.
 * The flag of your nation.
 * Your 3-digit code. (Ex: Monteregis is MTR)
 * A logo (The more modern and cool the better, but any logo is fine). In that logo, you will need:
 * A picture.
 * The name of your city and "2017" (Ex: Boston 2017)
 * The olympic rings. Use these olympic rings.
 * You can put these 3 things in any fashion you like, but i suggest you refer to past IRL logos to see what they did.
 * A slogan.
 * A main venue and a picture of it. It has to be real and in your city.
 * An official broadcaster. A logo for it is not required but recommended and will probably help you be picked for candidacy
 * Optional but recommended: A promotional poster for your city.

Bids start now (April 17th, 2017) and end June 1st, 2017
