Season schedules for the rest of the year

I did a little looking ahead and figure we'll get through Season 7 in the league before it gets too cold for me to race and I can take time to make updates.

If all goes to plan...
- Season 5 will end the first week of August
- Season 6 will end mid-October
- Season 7 will end right before Christmas

There won't be any league racing from Christmas through March 2012. That gives me 3 months to finish up any league changes and, by that point, take some well deserved time off.

And since there will be a firm stopping point for racing, I think we can kind of rename things and consider a "season" a year's worth of racing, which is made up of "series" of tournaments. Sixteen tournaments per series with five series per season. This opens up an chance to have some sort of yearly season championship in addition to the series championships every couple months.

Updates and additions to the game would then be added before each yearly season starts rather than changing things mid-stream (with exceptions to necessary repairs). New cars would continue to be added every new series as well as achievements, but no new features would be added. The off-season I have here in Ohio opens opportunity for some one-off mail-in tournaments, so those months certainly won't be wasted!

Again, this is all tentative but it's what I'm shooting for. I never thought I would be planning out things so far in advance but it's getting to the point where I have to just to keep sane. And if it wasn't for all you guys supporting the league and having fun, it wouldn't have gotten this far, so I thank you all again and again.
