I don't think it's really fair that the race length can be changed half way through a season! So my suggestion is to change it so it can't be.

I agree that race distance should be fixed for season like how race days are

Yeah. It's just been changed from 50% to 100% after 4 or 5 races of a new season. I don't have time for 100% so now need to leave the league.

It is hard enough to find a distance and time that you want to join to then get penalised for a reason that had you known at start you wouldn't join the league all wrong

I completely agree with this suggestion, even being a league host this should be the norm.

Any change impacting the league: Race Days/Distances/Times/Speeds and even promotion/relegation active/inactive should only take effect at the beginning of the next season.

Postpone race should be the only option that has an immediate impact.

I cant belive it can actually be changed mid season, thats got to be an oversight.

No changes should be possible during a season.

But if it is then change it

I like the suggestion, it's something that's completely unfair that it's still happening. I'll discuss it with the rest of the team.

Surely any changes like that should only take place during the off-season and, really, it should be put to a vote for members of the league. Certainly, in our league any significant changes would be voted on before they took place

I also agree that changes like race length should only happen in between seasons and a good host should not decide this on their own but make a poll and ask the rest of the league. But unfortunately a certain % of the league hosts seem to be little dictators so I like the suggestion to disable these changes while a season is ongoing.

This is the reason we run our league as we do, as Paul mentioned we put everything to a vote, even the length of the off season, which 9/10 times is 5 days lol. Running a league this way allows all members a chance to get their vote across and the majority wins, yes its impossible to please everyone no matter what you do you're always stepping on someones toes, but having any league changes put to vote makes it the fairest way to deal with it.

In this case it was voted on, no problem if more people want longer races than not. the problem is that it shouldn't be done mid-season.

Hey, don't give iGP any ideas. what about changing the time of races because of daylight savings or postponing races during celebrations such as Christmas?

Simple, run a poll and let the majority decide. If you want a break for Christmas, Easter or Taylor Swifts birthday, vote on it, if you want to change the times of your races cos of DLS then vote on it. As Mike says, we vote on every possible change, after a debate about it.

I agree with you on that changing the length mid-season a big nono in my book

Daylight saving time changes will change automatically according to another thread on the Forum.

Edit: maybe not - just re-read the thread.
