I understood that, but it _did_ say

"I only suggest so because the more attention this event grabs, the more willing
ICC will be to host it more frequently."

And I have no interest in making ICC especially happy. Mind you, I have nothing
against ICC as such, I just don't think it's better than FICS, and FICS is free.
The only thing that FICS lacks, are the GM's and the IM's etc. And that's their
choice. Of course, when all the GM's are at ICC, the new ones will also go to
ICC.
