    Quoted from Eric_S:

    Why aren't State SCS points going to start back up until 2022? If we pay into the fund in 2021, points should count too. Just run SCS qualifying from August 1, 2021 to the end of 2022.

    But if you do leagues that were unable to complete their 2020 season can pick up where they left off then NO 2021 state.

    Also ramp up time and some states not having big shows left + maybe limited people do to cross border issues.

    Some places have had evnets all ready / started there own non IFPA state / event chains that to trun on IPFA midway can make it not open to all. Even more so if to get in you need to play in past events (be for IFPA is back on) Also any events sold out now but now fall into the IFPA time.

    Not haveing SCS this year makes a lot of issues go away.

    Quoted from metallik:

    They'd likely have to adjust the 20 event limit to handle 17 months of events instead of 12. Also the simple fact 2021 stuff shouldn't count in 2022.
    Funds get paid back regardless so not worried about that. Practice in 2021 and win in 2022

    well then playoffs SCS / and need to hit Qualifications to get in events that are qualified based on year before should not count for the year played for SCS.

    Quoted from EJS:

    It wouldn’t surprise me if it didn’t survive the winter. But I was happy to have already played in one tournament already under IFPA. Again it’s going to be tough with different countries doing different things.

    well if get an winter surge / more lock downs??
    Will the ifpa need to shut down again?

    At least plan for some kind of USA only for some stuff? as us lock downs are not likely politicaly again but over seas stuff may be / over seas people can't enter the usa.

    Quoted from metallik:

    As long as effective vaccines are available for anyone to take, I don't think anything should be shut down again.

    But some places are saying vaxed people only and then people under age X can't get one that is an issue.
