A possible date change, two days later or they lose government money, nothing confirmed yet...they are also looking at different hotels, as of right now the price is 150.00 US per person per night...

That is pretty steep. The plane ticket alone is over $1,500. Evidently you have to be a rich man to pull at the worlds. Reminds me of how the Olympics were during the 19th Century. We are doing a tournament in November...room rate 74 bucks. Hope to see you all there!

this is what WAF answered me;
"Due to unforeseen circumstances with organizers in Kazakhstan, there might be a minor change in the dates of the world championship. WAF is currently working with the organizers to finalize the details and will be making this information available as soon as everything has been rectified. We expect to have a definitive answer by next week at the latest. The hotel and transportation information is also being finalized by WAF and the organizers and we should also have that information shortly. We apologize for the delay."

150 dollars US per night... In Kazakhstan?!! Let me guess- there is an agent who must book the room on your behalf.
Sounds like someone is planning to retire to the south of France.

Not a 150.00 per night it's 150.00 per person per night...lots of the European countries charge per person... The agent may make something but I heard it's not cheap in that area....
