Rules 2005

[zaqrack]

The usual flamewar-topic which comes up in autumn

I was quite satisfied with the 2004 point system altough I want to do some modifications. Please comment and discuss the options and possibilities here.



The current plans:
(bold means its fix)

the top 12 gets points
point system: 12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
two worst results doesnt count in season
LTB +2/+1 as this year
TDB no longer given, maybe something more motivating to send a time instead
12 tracks in the season, each lasts one month
max 4 pipsqueaks/team
team scoring exactly the same as this year

[/list]

Leading time score is too much related to basic score.

As last year, I still believe that there must be a bigger gap between top 5 drivers (or at least top 3, podium should be rewarded in my opinion) and the others.

Current points system (20-16-14-12-10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1) suits me fine, even if I'm not often in top 5 (and almost never in top 3). :mrgreen:

Maybe we can do something with less points difference like 15-13-11-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1... :roll:

I don't like point system. It's no need to win race because there's small gap between points. Top3 should get more points, I'd think.

[Akoss Poo a.k.a. Zorromeister]

But check the scoreboard. For example ZCT 43. There's slight differences between top4 here. Why should we give points with big differences to them? Totally disagree.

Maybe a system like 20-19-18-17-16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2 would be fair, because there are about 5 drivers per month who race seriously, and they deserve a high score. And that would damage the tactics of lazy top drivers.

This year and last year the points scale was stretched, I think it's time to use once the points scale with only small gaps between top places.

Sounds just perfect to me. It would be so great if we could have a simple and correct scoring system like in the old Kalpen days!

[zaqrack]

winners should get more points, thats sure, but this year the difference combined with the LTB was simply too much. A linear point system with the LTB should work fine.

[satanziege]

I think TDB was generally a good idea, but perhaps it should be calculated from diiference 1st - 10th, so that drivers BELOW 12 get an extra point too

[JTK]

Sounds good, the new rules. You're o.k. by me.  

And thanks, Bonzai Joe
