Thanks for the challenge request.
Unfortunately our team is not motivated for this challenge now.

This leaves you with two options:

1. Put the challenge on hold until we're ready
2. Score a walkover win

Let me know what you choose, and I'll update the ladder ranking if you go for option 2.

Harald, we seek the challenge of meeting your team on the water. At this level of the ladder we believe results should be obtained through races, not walk-overs. Please let us know as soon as your team is feeling up to racing.

That being said, we request right of first refusal if you feel the need to race another team. If you still do not wish to race us, we will then accept the walk-over.

Good winds!

Hi guys,

Since Holger and Jon are having fun with each other in another forum I thought I would see if you're up to a fun team race yet? Let us know!

2 years of no challenge by your team.

Team extra dry would like to challenge TeamUnion2005 as soon as WTRC is finished.

Best Regards, Matthias

Thanks Mathias. Always a pleasure racing Extra Dry. But let's first wait and see what will happen with our team after WTRC, with regards to the new rules for team composition.

of course, we will wait for the new rules.
i just wanted to be sure to be first team which will challenge the Unions:-)

Hi Champions,

what training for the WTRC could be better than challenge the reigning champion team itself .

We are able to race the next days on the 20th after 22:30 o'clock and the 23rd, 24th and 26th from 21:00 o'clock onwards.

Please confirm or make any alternative date proposals if you want to meet us.

Hope to meet you soon, Cpt. Jan Feng of the Empress on behalf of the E.S.Team Pirates.

Hi,
regarding to how the Ladder at VTC works its not good if the leading team is inactive in challenges since 2 years.
i asked for a challenge in april 2010. for sure it was ok to wait until it was clear, how the new rules at VTC will be.
But now its decided and you should be come back to more activity.

#

5. team may accept a challenge request right away, but has the right to wait for what is longest of
* 1 week from requested challenge
* 1 month since last accepted challenge request

7. A request is officially accepted when either
* the requested team is accepting the request
* any of the requesting teams or an administrator point out that the request period is due (ref article 2.3.5).
8. When a challenge request has been accepted, a topic for the challenge should be created in the forum for challenges. This topic should have "team name of challenger" vs "name of other team" as title. Use the topic to communicate in order to schedule the race. The topic should later be used for posting of race results.
9. If there was more than one challenge request, a team that did not get to challenge has to resubmit the request in order to make it valid again.

# A challenge that is a result of a challenge request should generally be completed within 1 month. If it's not, and one team want to claim a walkover, this request should be posted in the challenge topic in the forum.

so, when i the date challenge is accpeted?
imo we should find a race date within next 2 weeks.
i put this one to active challenges.
sorry for the pressure but otherwise we are far away from a dynamic ranking.


Regards, Matthias

You don't have to be sorry. This is how it works, and it would be good if teams did just what you do now. We don't have any intention of leading the ladder without racing. If we don't have time to race, we will happily drop step by step down the ladder.
