TP Limit to Custom Trials
Started By
I always here about how the Capped dogs are taking over the higher trialing levels, and when they make a specific Trial and Title it somthing like "3000TP and under" and Capped dogs still enter. I thought it would be helpful to add an option to the 'Create Trial' form. We could add a TP slot where you could choose the TP limit. Like '2000TP - 4000TP'. This could also be used to help new dog owners compete with dogs on the same level. I think this idea is a little more fair to all owners, dogs get an even more equal chance.

Oh, I didn't look at it that way! Of course this is not a negative comment, you are simplystating a better idea and giving it a reason. Thank you^^

Unfortunately it was decided that there would be no TP divisions being it would also be unfair for users who put time into training/breeding higher TP dogs making it redundant to compete against one another.<br /> <br /> Also that it would simply create new tiers of capped dog (i.e. 2000TP - 4000TP, the 4000TP dogs would be the new "capped dog" and once they become 4001TP they become obsolete in the next tier).<br /> <br /> The "fairness" of winning seen in the situation is the amount of effort put in to breed/train higher TP dogs as opposed to putting dogs of specific TP into their own brackets.<br /> <br /> I hope this will not be considered a negative comment, as it is more an explanation of reasons why it was decided it would not be added. We are open to alternative suggestions to boost participation.
