I figured it would be smart to also open a general discussion thread.
The first thing you can do is to suggest races that will be put on the calendar. Only Monuments and the GTs are fix parts of the WT calendar. You can suggest races for any devision. That can be any race you want, a real existing race or a fantasy race made by a stage maker. If you want to suggest a race also post a link where I could download it. In the end any manager can vote what races will be part of the calendar of their own devision.
Also I uploaded the pointscale file, look at it and tell me if there is anything wrong with it: https://www.mediafire.com/?x42mqjtijy...jtijy6j46x

Well, there are a few amazing races in the comic DB.
But allright, I love to ride crazy races, so I'll try to search for a few soon.

Lincoln GP would make an awesome WT classic, while "GP in CZ with a long name" would be great to have too. Not sure if it was ever finished, but the peace tour would be absolutely great for my team. And the MG race Tour of Northern Europe would be really cool too.

I thought about something like that too would be great if it could work..

So the rest of the WT calendar is unfixed?
Hmm not sure where to start...
It would be nice if the core calendar is kept the same (P-N, T-A, Pais Vasco, Dauphine, Suisse, E3, G-W, Amstel, Fleche etc)
Here's a list of things I feel strongly about
Omloop, Strade Bianche, Paris-Tours, Chrono des Nations --> WT
Trentino --> WT [maybe have an extended version (ie find a couple of stages from the region from eg Giro variants to beef it up a bit)]
Beijing --> remove completely, utter waste of time
Canadian classics, Pologne --> CT
Osterreich --> WT (replace Pologne)
And a list of possibles:
California --> WT
Ouest-France (Plouay) --> CT
Romandie --> CT
A couple of the late Italian classics to replace the Canadian ones --> WT eg Milano - Torino, Piemonte, Emilia etc
Vuelta a Tachira (Margh Norway) --> .HC or even WT (love that race)
The NRS stages tsmoha made are great, definitely need to include at least one or two of those races across the divisions.
Also, replacing the Eneco Tour with Pelli's far superior Tour of Northern Europe would be quite cool

Yes make Romandie CT, that if perfect for me team
Solid suggestions there, ToC is a good race to have WT if there was 1 or 2 less flat stages. lose Beijing |

I'd say make either USAPCC or AToC WT, maybe even add Utah to that list

One US race should definitely be WT, ideally AToC and it would be nice if the Tour of Britain could be as well. There should be a more globalised WT calendar (though not China, nobody gives a shit about China).

Would be nice to see Paris - Tours back in the WT. Could change the Canadian classics into Milano - Torino and Paris - Tours.
Strade Bianche would be a great addition to the WT too. |

-Tour d'Andorra
-Volta a Portugal
-GP Onda Boavista (1 day race)

-The Tour of America- Is in MG, not sure if it is in other dbs but a long CT Stage Race would be awesome.
