Season 1 is coming to his end and Season 2 is starting soon.
I am curious about season 2 though.
What about promotion? There are some rumors according different promotion solutions. Are they true? Do we have more Teams promoting then expected. Do some teams promote directly to Div. 3? I think we need an official answer sooner then later.
what about the races? will we have the same races like last season? or will we have new races added? will we have the same races but stages changed (new altitudes etc)? I am so excited about next season i would love to plan it.
what about the break. How long will it be? do we get some extra money, or do we need to save money for the break?

If we don't change for the new engine I think that the races will be the same, only changing the days.
Related to promotion, the official spetch is that the top 4 will go to 4 Div.
The break will be for 1 or 2 weeks, but normaly 1 week.
The teams at the end will recebe a bonus for the final classification and a bonus for top 10 riders in division.
For new season we will have new sponsor with better offers.

Well, we didn't make the progress we had in mind, so I am afraid that the new race engine (not match engine ) will be postponed for 1 season. We still need to make racereport adaptations, the problem with the intermediate results needs to be fixed, we need to create an entire new race calender (the current one is not compatible with the new engine), ... Bottemline : a lot of work is still to be done ! Better to introduce it later than to introduce it now with a lot of bugs and possible recalculations ...

pfff here we go again I think that it's better to wait (another) 1 season to have a game engine with few problems. Only this season was trying possibile new engine with funraces. put it this way: we have waited so long to restart to game...wait only a season for the new engine fully functional, it's not so bad ;D

I agree with stenes. I am allready happy that the game is rolling! We should have patience.. and hope that the new race engine is ready for S3. I don't think that the funrace is allready good enough to use in the race.. few things could be better (points attack and mood cyclus, diff parts to set up an attack and the influence of the other cyclist).. but saying is of course easy.. So lot of respect IT! ;o)

Very wise decision. I was afraid the new engine might be rushed into action too soon, which would have been very risky indeed.
I am happy with this choice, it once again shows responsability and a long-term commitment to this game.

Yup, good decision indeed. Next year the skills of riders will be more diverse, so better testing of the new race engine. If participation in the normal funraces decreases and no feedback is given anymore, it might be useful to get a team of 10-20 dedicated/voluntary players that will help testing the race engine and give feedback.

A classic Beta, I guess that might be good.
What I don't like is the Promotional System. everyone just one stage higher? What's the point?
I'd have preferred it if the current ranking would have been used to fill the divisions from the top. So the highest Ranking (and therefore hopefully strongest) teams to div. 1 and so forth.
That would also solve the Problem with players who entered later, they'd be amongst Teams of their strength. Right now, if things go bad, half the division will be filled with extremely strong and half the division with extremely bad teams.
The solution will probably lose the game some players who haven't been in from the start, because they see that they'll be given another mission impossible instead of a realistic challenge with others of equal strength. I couldn't blame them for leaving the game. Seeing how much joining 2 weeks later already cost...
Nope, not happy with that solution.

I know it is very late to let that happen BUT i hope IP reads this and considers it because it is a VERY good suggestion!!!!!
