Delaying some worlds for better spacing? Topic

As its set up now theres 7 1 a day worlds. Working on the assumption that each world takes 48 days to go through a season one should assume that they should be spaced 6-8 days apart.

As of now it looks like this for the next season start

Rupp June 21st
Allen July 1st
Smith July 2nd
Iba July 9th
Crum July 13th
Naismith July 30th
Wooden August 5th
Rupp August 9th

What I suggest is delay the worlds like this

Allen July 1st
Smith July 8th
Iba Jully 16th
Crum July 23
Naismith July 30th
Wooden August 5th
Rupp August 12
Allen August 18th

and so on.

For those of you who say "I don't want a big layoff" what if they delayed a world a day each of the next couple of seasons to space them out.

Just throwing it out there.

absolutely

the dates are actually even more clustered than you have listed there, i think there's 6-7 days total between allen/smith/iba/crum

Since Smith was delayed for 5 days with the new engine problems,  there's only one day between Smith and Iba now.  I sent in a ticket. The response:

"We may look at delaying some worlds to break them up more."

tanner, I urge you and other coaches to also submit a ticket.  We can get that "may look" changed to "definitely".

Yes this is a good idea.  Delay iba and crum a little....allen and smith are too close....everything in the allen-crum zone is too tight due to the allen/smith delay.

I support the Tanner Plan.

IF they delay my world, they better give me something to do in that down time. I'm in IBA, and its long enough waiting like 2 weeks if you don't make it far in the NT. I don't care if they give a week or whatever of exhibition just somethings better then none to keep interest up.

In Iba, you're a top 5 'dynasty team' and have made post-season 9 consective seasons. I don't think you have anything to worry about!
