With the new season (season 5) starting next monday (14th of January), we already have important news for season 6 ! We are planning a major restructuring in the divisions ! The number of teams per league (currently 20) will be drastically reduced and also the number of leagues per division will be reduced.
With this major change we hope to find a more balanced financial situation for all teams and increase the competition in the league.
More detailed information on the concrete numbers and what this means for your team will follow during the season !

Just a thought... but this should be fleshed out and publicized pretty soon. How many divisions at each level and how many teams in each division? How will the teams be assigned to the divisions the first season? How will promotion and demotion work going forward?
I vaguely remember some ranking being suggested as the initial method of assigning teams. Was it the international ranking?
If that's the case, I'd personally like to have the measure of what the cutoffs are so I know what to shoot for to hit each division level (instead of focusing on finishing in the top 2... which may not matter at all)

I told IP that we need to add a page on the site where you can see the division in which you will start next season (this is ofcourse refreshed after every race)

I would also say to put an announcement in the game by saying something like: "At the end of this season will be revised groups and series so that there can be no more than 12 team (or better 10 ) for group. Probably promotions will be 1 and not 2 this year! this change is essential to decrease the competitiveness and increase revenue for all! The sponsors will be significantly increased hihihihihihi "

announcing it before, we are informed, and you can process it better (so as to minimize the possible complaints)

More detailed information on the concrete numbers and what this means for your team will follow during the season !I do not read anywhere in the ad. that promotions could be not 2 but 1 ... you can guess, but I think it is better to specify it the proposal that I made a couple of weeks ago is too complicated to do? p.s.- If you go at the page of announcements the AD of restructuring is not visible (the last is 13/01/2013)

Bump. Perhaps it's time for a reminder in the announcements on the site so people remember this is coming (assuming it still is coming).

Well that's fine too, but once we're sure it won't, that should be announced as well (on the main website, not just the message board).

IP has agreed on restructuring the leagues for next season. Div | #Leag | #teams | Total teams | #promot | #degrad | 1 | 1 | 12 | 12 | 0 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 24 | 36 | 2 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 48 | 84 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 8 | 96 | 180 | 2 | 4 | 5 | 16 | 192 | 372 | 2 | 2 | 6 | 16 | 192 | 564 | 2 | 2 | 7 | 16 | 192 | 756 | 2 | 2 | 8 | 16 | 192 | 948 | 2 | 2 | 9 | 16 | 192 | 1140 | 2 | 2 | 10 | 16 | 192 | 1332 | 2 | 0 |
Filling up the divisions is based on International Ranking. So, if your int. rank is 213 at the end of the season, you will be in division 5 next season.
