You can't say 3.3 is the standard when 3.2 WAS the standard till somebody came out with a heavier base that everybody wanted.
I also want the new guys to know that we ARE just discussing. It is time the hobby laid down some standards. I personally don't care what the numbers are but lets put some numbers down. Corey really just made the strongest point for standards when he listed 4 or 5 teams for different weight leagues. Most people are not going to be able to afford the time or money to do that.
Why go to 3.4 or 3.5? Did leagues do that for performance or customizing? Same goes for 4.1? Why bump it? Just asking.
Don't get me wrong....I think its all good but as a hobby trying to move forward, I think we need to put some classes into place. I would vote for a 3.3, 4.0 and unlimited. 3.5 and 3.6 and all that would just be classified in the 4.0 class. That doesn't stop leagues from playing at whatever weight they decide. It just looks to the future and helps us we lay out rules and definitions.
Its "useless" and "ridiculous" to let what was, decide what could be. I'm looking for something better that gives us and this game competitive credibility.
