Moderator: VTC Race Committee
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.
CHALLENGES
1. A team may challenge any other team.
2. The challenge doesn't have to be formal. Races can be organized by any communication meduim, but informal challenges does not influence the requirements for formal challenges (through the request procedure).
2.9 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.
informal challenges does not influence the requirements
FORMAL CHALLENGE REQUESTS
1. There is a dedicated forum for formal challenge requests where each team has a forum topic.
2. A link to each teams forum topic for formal challenge requests is included in the ranking table.
3. The formal challenge request topic of a team should be tracked (by email) by at least two members of the team. Simply click "track this topic" at the bottom of your challenge request topic.
4. Any team can request to formally challenge any other team.
5. A team may accept a formal challenge request right away, but has the right to wait for what is longest of
* 1 week from a formal requested challenge
* 1 month since last accepted formal challenge request
6. If multiple teams request to formally challenge the same team before the team has accepted, then the forced priority is as follows (1 takes precedence over 2 etc.):
1. All other teams have priority over the team which was the last to formally challenge the relevant team through a formal challenge request.
2. A team ranked below the formally challenged team has priority over a team ranked above the challenged team.
3. A team with rank closer to the formally challenged team has priority.
4. A team posting the formal request first has priority.
7. A formal request is officially accepted when either
* the formallyrequested team is accepting the formal request
* any of the formally requesting teams or an administrator point out that the formal request period is due (ref article 2.3.5).
8. When a formal challenge request has been accepted, a topic for the formal 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 formal challenge request, a team that did not get to formally challenge has to resubmit the request formally in order to make it valid again.
# A formal challenge that is a result of a formal challenge request should generally be completed within 1 month. If it's not, and one team want to claim a walkover, this request (to claim a walkover) should be posted in the challenge topic in the forum.
the SI §'s concerning the hereto "CHALLENGE REQUEST" ?does not influence the requirements for formal challenges
