Hello,
My comment was most definately tongue-in-cheek. I set up the IRC channel because it occured to me it might be useful at some point, and not everyone can do it as quickly as I can (I have setup quite a few). I am not really involved in the bid because, like Majorly, I am not sure I can do a lot. So I tried to do something helpful.
Thanks,
Sean

It isn't a bad attitude, it's creating an IRC channel. The whole thing *is* a competition. What's there that's bad about it?
You're arguing about a _channel_. Better; an _IRC channel_. Do you think a channel will make a difference? Work on your bid, instead. Make a perfect bid. And prey that your city will be in the right continent for this year.
Don't waste your time and energie on something so silly like "they have an IRC channel, we have to have it too".
Who's going to use this channel? Only the people involved in that precise bid. The other one will not be interested. Nor impressed, I hope.
