That might make sense.

Yeah, it's complicated. After reading all your suggestions, my final idea is to nake it 1 election per 2 months with new "voting system" like suggested on previous page :bg:
4 times pole-sitter in GRPL F2. Future GRPL F2POSTPONEDrace winner. 1 time best of the rest qualification in GRPL F1.

The voting system with valued votes is too complicated IMO and too different from ToM custom in past 10+ years. I think we should either to keep 5 votes, if we'd estimate regularly present 20+ nominees in election (because that's why the number of votes was increased in past) or return to 3 votes (more suitable for elections with 10-20 tracks).

I guess the "7 tracks or less= 1 election for 2 months/8 tracks or more=1 election for 1 month" makes sense with the 3 votes system, with 5 votes in election the present habbit that 12 tracks is the border makes sense more to me.

About that... I'm really sorry, guys, but that's how my life is going right now. :sorry: I know that making results doesn't take too long, but it's really hard for me to find enough time and (mainly) motivation to do it nowadays.

I see two options: one - you wait and hope I overcome my procrastination (I will achieve that eventually), second - someone responsible take my place in ToM team.

Once again: I'm really sorry. :sorry:

Guys, a question: wisely considering amount of releases od new tracks, how do want ToM to continue in short and long term?

1. Keep running an election per 2 months like now.
2. Keep running an election per longer time period (each 3rd or each 4th month).
3. Do only anual elections, asap for 2015 and in next January for 2016.
4. Cease all elections after running 2015 ToY, just keep site online.
5. Any other ideas ...

I guess track of quarter would be the best option. Definitely not stop altogether - at least keep ToY active.

It's a shame, the current number of new tracks. :shake: And I'm ashamed for the fact I haven't made any in a long time either. :(

I agree that it seems as the most suitable solution for the situation we are in right now :nod: .
