1) This will be the spirit

2) This will be probably our solution depends from how many people subscribe. We estimate 4 track rounds, but probably 3 will be enough. In that case 2nd round date could be alternative date for 1st round

3) In last World Championships we organized (PCM 9 and PCM 10). It was who organized PCM 11 World Champs that changed it. 

3) I think that you, at least, should ask if 50% agrees with these stats, I honestly think that 10-10-10 is the preference

1) We know this and we want more people to play. We are reconsidering the fact to create more teams if there are many nationality. Otherwise we want team to have some reserves to avoid team that does not fit minimum amount of users playing. We think 8 to 12 can fit, but also 6 to 8 can be good. We want as many people as possible to play

2) No, it's not because personal life. Many people who use the 2nd chances were present in 1st. This is a good compromise - is up to you to organize your time in weekends. Is not fair that the 4th of a strong group should be eliminated after 4th round to let the 6th of a second group pass. We have splitted 1st round of road into two blocks for this. We can do it also on track, with an additional week but it's clear that is stupid to do it in further rounds and it's stupid to allow a player to play both because there were ideated for people who CAN'T play 1st, not who were eliminated at 1st. By the way, you suggest me an idea: we can use weekend to play 2nd chances but i still don't see it as 2nd chances but as alternative dates. We can't follow needed of 200 people. 

3) Omnium? Omnium are simply the REAL rules of the omnium balancing all 4 disciplines not advantaging one or another. For DB? We have always plays WC with 8-8-8 also in last WC we organized because it's the Cyanide Ladder db Values and allows it to use more tactics as you can't launch too early your sprint and not be caught. For us here it is the traditional way to play track. Call it "home advantage" if you like. 

1) But everybody wants to play, and in big teams the small ones doesn't do anything...

2) I got your point, but at least in the first round of any track event you should make 2nd chances... In the semifinals yeah who can't be play is just out. 

3) What? WC = World Championship. In World Championship we play with a bd ladder 10-10-10, and changing that doesn't make any sense tbh

I just want to reinforce some drawbacks that I've stopped regarding this year's rules.

The fact we can only have one team per nation. What's the point of this? Impossibliting the people of having fun and enjoying the online mode when they can, which mostly is during the World Cup? I thought they are made for people to have fun and not to sit around to watch other people. If you are planning teams with over 6 players, it also doesn't make sense.

The non-existance of second chances: since you like so much to defend the guy who don't live off the game (this is what I get from not putting events on the weekends), why end up with something that would help your calendar, since it allow people who had to fail the event because of their personal life?

For the last: the DB change and omnium. What's the point of this? Just because Cym Italy can't play track doesn't give them the right to change things their way and to completelly change the traditional way of playing track in PCM. Let's not make things harder, let's just make it fun for the community! We can do it guys! Thank you guys btw organising is always a good way to make this event real every year!
