2016 should be held in Madison again. Out of all the National Award Ceremonies I've been too, that one was hands-down the best and most entertaining. Also, the campus is really new and beautiful. And, to put the icing on the cake, it is located in the center of the country.

Chicago is relatively central, and easy to get to. Plus we held it back in '99. Maybe I can stir up some hustle and bustle?

Agreed, I think it will be tough for any tournament in the near future to match or exceed the all-around greatness of the 2011 tournament in Madison.

Not to be a downer, but I do remember the coordinators saying that the entire process of getting the tournament to Madison took around 10 years. Unlikely that the tournament would go back so soon. BUT, Madison was really awesome, except I missed the tech thing on Friday afternoon.

Additionally, I believe I remember reading that they were originally slated to host the tournament in 2010, but it got pushed back a year so they could finish the construction of the new student union (which served as tournament headquarters).

It would be amazing if it was held in the same place as 1999 - University and Museums of Chicago. Sounds like so much fun! ^-^

Personally, I'd like a tournament to be in Cali. Sun, beaches, and plus, really cool science places. Preferably Caltech. Y'know, tour the place a few years before I go there, since it's like my dream college (well, Caltech along with MIT).
