Henry tried to get a southern site in '94 and '95 and didn't get a bid.
Which SC groups have made bids in the last five years?

That tradition is, however, very dependent on who submits bids.

Let's see: Lochmere, Drachentor, Ponte Alto, Kapellenberg, Rencester,
Isenfir, Stierbach, Misty Marsh. That's 3.5 in the north, 3.5 in the
central, and 1 in the south. (Isenfir is the half-n-half.)

Your conclusion is flawed by the assumption that the Northern Region is
geographically half of the kingdom, including all of Virginia.

Coronation in Sacred Stone, Crown in Seareach. There you go. You're far
closer to both of those than I am, and I don't even come close to living
near the north edge. I note that most big events *do* take place in the
actual central part of the kingdom -- Windmasters'/Caer Mear at the heart
of that area -- more often than in any other area.
