Two bids to host the 101st World Cup were proposed to the World Cup Committee prior to the tournament. The first bid was unveiled by Drawkland and Banija. Nicknamed "EVIL BID 2", this bid was the spiritual successor of Drawkland's WC 83 bid. Like its predecessor, "EVIL BID 2" included a number of innovative proposals based on the conference format used in College Football competitions.
A competing bid, named "Penguins, fire, don't mention the tax evasion", based on a WC 100 bid of the same name, was unveiled by Farfadillis and Paradystopia six days later.
The WCC vote was rather close with no bids getting a majority in the first round, so the bid with less votes, "EVIL BID 2" was eliminated and their votes transferred in alignment with second preferences. In the second round, "Penguins, fire, don't mention the tax evasion" won the majority of votes and the right to host World Cup 101.
Qualification
The 160 teams entering the qualifying phase were drawn into 16 groups of ten teams, each contested as a home-and-away double round-robin. The winners and runner-ups of each qualifying group directly qualified for the final tournament. Third, fourth and fifth placed teams had a chance to qualify through three rounds of playoffs.
After Matchday 14, the nations of Tikariot and Pyazhnaya were disqualified from their respective qualifying groups for violating the AI rules. In the playoffs, Andossa Se Mitrin Vega was disqualified for the same reason.
