BEFORE READING THIS PAGE, PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS DECLARATION FROM THE USER:
I KNOW,
I AM BEING RUDE, UNPOLITE, EVIL, BASTARD, POLITICALLY INCORRECT SoB, (add at will) WITH OUR TAIPEI FRIENDS.
AND THE WORST PART IS THAT
I STILL FIRMLY BELIEVE I AM RIGHT WITH MY OPINION
THAT
THE CHOSEN BID WAS THE WORST ONE:
SCARCE DOCUMENTATION OFFERED, SMALL BIDDING TEAM MADE ONLY OF WIKIPEDIANS FROM THE STILL UNFOUNDED TAIPEI CHAPTER, CITY NOT COMPARABLE IN TOURISM TO OTHER PROPOSED, FAR AWAY AND VERY EXPENSIVE FOR THE BIGGEST PART OF THE WIKIMEDIA COMMUNITY, WEATHER ISSUES DUE TO RAIN SEASON.
PERSONALLY I LOVED ALEXANDRIA AND, OF COURSE, TURIN (WHILE LONDON, SORRY PALS, IS QUITE OVEREXPOSED).
TAIPEI CHOICE OFFICIALLY OCCURRED FOR THE MOST OBSCURE PARTS OF THEIR BID (SPONSORSHIPS, "LOW" TRAVEL FARES),
PLUS A CLEAR POLITICAL CHOICE:
IMHO FROM THE BEGINNING NO BIDS COULD STAND A CHANCE
EXCEPT FOR ASIA (ALTERNATION AND CHINESE ISSUE) AND EGYPT (WIKIAFRICA).
NOW IT'S THEIR TURN TO PROVE MY IDEAS ARE WRONG,
THAT THE HYPOTETICAL SUITCASE FULL OF CASH REALLY EXISTS, THAT SOME CRAZY AIRLINE IS GOING BANKRUPT TO BRING US THERE, THAT TAIPEI IS NOT JUST A DRAGON-SHIP-SHAPED SUBWAY STATION AND A NIGHT MARKET, THAT A TAIWAN WIKIMEDIA IS EVER GOING TO EXIST, THAT A CROWD OF ACTIVE HELPERS WILL CAME IN WITH THEIR SHINY SPACESHIP, AND THAT A CHINESE WIKIPEDIAN COULD TRAVEL SAFELY TO WIKIMANIA (AND BACK HOME, IF POSSIBLE).
Yo!
Why are you here?
Oh, you are looking for a cool, sweet pirate?
Ok, you can find me on my flagship or on my on my support vessel.
HOOOORAAY MATES!!
