Congratulations. You will join the Continental division, which will consist of 24 teams. The 10 new teams, the 5 teams who relegated from PCT to CT, and 9 teams who competed in CT last season already.
Being accepted is only the first part. A strong activity in the game, both in the off-season and during the season are expected of all of you. 21 new managers were accepted last year, and disappointingly only 12 remain - with 4 failing to even make it to transfer season. So don't take anything for granted now that you are in!
The first step is to confirm your team name and sponsors, which you can do in this thread: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....d_id=42630
Fill it in as all others have done, and just put "N/a" under the 2015 Name section.
A note on sponsors. You can't pick a sponsor that is already being used, or was used last season. You can see last year's sponsors from the 2015 List, but check the thread too for any new sponsors being chosen by teams.
Your team will need a jersey, and once ready that needs to be uploaded to the 2016 ManGame section of the Shirts Database.
You can then post a Team HQ thread in https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewforum.p...orum_id=96. But first, try to think about what you want to put in it. Don't start spamming the HQ forum out of excitement, its your first chance to prove youll be a good manager for the game!
Please do not suddenly post in a lot of Team HQ threads declaring interest in riders they might have. And certainly do not make any offers for riders. This is banned for all teams until the start of the transfer season, when there will be plenty of time for such moves. Transfers will require some careful planning - not wildly charging in trying to sign every single available rider.
Everything else in the off-season will follow in due course, and be announced in this MG Announcements forum or the General CT forum. A vague order will be: Reveal of racing calendar; reveal of first version of 2016 DB; selection of team goals; selection of C2HC bands; transfer season; selection of C1/C2 races; filling in rider race planner files; start of the season with the first race. However there is no timescale for when these will happen. Impatient posts asking about timings - as some of you made in the Applications thread - are not appreciated.

Well done, I highly welcome each of you to the ManGame playground. I especially can't wait for D2B to outbid me on some free agents in last second (I still cry about Coppel in ICL..), be witness to Spilak building a Vino empire and J7 sorta doing his jandal thing.

Wow, wasn't expecting this, thanks for a second shot, I'll try and make it count!

Congrats to all new managers!
Glad to see Spilak and jaxika back in the game. Iberia and Allianz were both strong contenders during our 2013 CT campaign. Many class of 2013 managers have left, so two coming back is great news!
