Quote from AppiePils :

What last season clearly proved is that the organization was a chaos. A few observations:
- change of rules during the season
- unclear how points were dealt out
- admins not showing up
- lack of rules, or clarity how to interpet the rules

Change all that first before you even consider starting a second season.

- There was no rules to begin with, because i thought it would be all common sense but obviously it wasnt and we are not living in a perfect world
- points were dealth out as
1st - 40pts
2nd - 38pts
3rd - 36pts
4th - 34pts
- I was unable to show up for 1 round and arco was sick, i asked paulc2k if he could cover for me if i was away.
- and yes we need to fix the loop holes in the rules

It was our first major League we had hosted. So this season all those problems you have in first season will be fixed for this season

Quote from Jonesy_ :I personally would like to see some variety on the choosen combos.
Some xfi+xrg action would be nice also, on a track where they are competetive.
For the starting time I must suggest 20.00 UTC, as 21 would already be midnight for Finns in the summer time.

I´m sure Mercury will show intrest in the upcoming season.

What about Bl1 - XFG/XRG
times are very close there

20:00UTC should be ok i guess

I thought i would put forward my ideas for next season of BOTT
and see what you think.

Season starts: July/August

Time: 20:00 or 21:00 UTC

It all depends on the number of team that join but..
Premiere Division (All the teams from last season will be invite back and all the team who were invited last time and unable to make it) - 16 teams
Division 1
Divison 2
If we were to have divisions then possibly 6 rounds
Round 1: Fern bay Club - UF1
Round 2: South City long - XFR
Round 3: Aston Cadet - TBO
Round 4: Aston ??? - GTR
Round 5: Fern Bay Gold or ??? - FOX
Round 6: Kyoto Ring National - FO8

Ruling/penalties
There will be a Tribunal which consists of 2-3 members of LFS with a good understanding of racing.
If a complaint is made it will be reviewed by the tribunal judges and they will come to a conclusion on the penalty

Comments, criticism, suggestions welcome
