1.  This event is always held in Europe, the last North American WCCC was 1989
in Canada.  That makes it expensive to attend.

2.  It is right on top of a major US holiday, Thanksgiving (tomorrow, Thursday,
is the official holiday, but schools are also closed on Friday.  May as well
have it on top of Christmas, from the US perspective.  It would be no worse.

3.  It takes a week to play plus travel time.  We have classes the first three
days of this week, plus the days surrounding the holiday.  Missing that many
classes is simply not viable...
