[teboecubes]

The darker blue the state, the more likely it is to host nats.

I mean it's not like CubingUSA decides whom cities elect as mayor?

[greentgoatgal]

Based on the number of cities in that state with a possibility of hosting the comp?

Yeah, but how was it obtained?

EDIT: I'm dumb ignore the question. That doesn't work though because many that have one are different colors.

The only Wisconsin city on the list of 125 is Madison, and that's got a Democratic mayor.

Is that just how democratic the states are?

No, I took the list of cities here, put the amount of cities in a given state in a spreadsheet, then turned it into a map.

Based on the number of cities in that state with a possibility of hosting the comp?

yes

I know, it just seems sometimes that everything is about Democrats. I guess we don't need to get political on here though.

In fairness, it's pretty darn close to 50/50, and at the level of city mayor it matters even less than it does at the state or national level.

Never tell me the odds!

Please be in amehearts

 

[WillyTheWizard]

But what if a mayor is a democratic republican?

Clue #4 has been posted early today due to the holiday. Happy Thanksgiving!

 

[AidanNoogie]

Clue #4- Happy Thanksgiving! Today we are thankful that our host city for CubingUSA Nationals 2018 was founded in the 19th century.

Someone get a new list!!!

 

[DGCubes]

Here's the updated doc. There are currently 72 cities in the running, quite a few of which are a bit ambiguous for one or two of the clues.

EDIT: 68, now. I was able to eliminate a couple of the ambiguous ones.
