Reposting this in here so I can get my months worth of batteries thrown at me. So here's where I'm at with a few things:

Rules:
I've deliberated (mostly to myself) upon getting rid of some free trick cards however after some considerations I'm feeling like leaving trick cards as is would be fine mostly because PES 15 strikers and players do have the gusto to attempt and pull off a sombrero and more. As far as rules go with this being a PES that's been untouched for nearly a decade I feel like it would be fascinating to see PES 15 on a modern rule set. I had considered bringing back the late PES 13 - Early PES 14 era height bracket back as a sort of unified height bracket but I have not recovered the reference image from the recesses of the wiki, my own hard drives, or my mind. But that's something to simmer upon for another time. I do not recall 15 strikers being as bad as later strikers with accuracy so silvers will go back down 88. As far as manlets and non-medals go I feel like the manlet stat boost goes back down to +3 since from my own memories non-medals didn't exactly struggle to score back on 15. I do not recall height being overpowered but the judge is still out on this one while i'm still watching old tapes and looking at the old saves but I'm leaning towards removing the stat nerf for tallbois currently.

Dates:
As of now nine weeks from summer to autumn would land us at an October 10th start for qualifiers (If we need them) with the babby proper starting October 24th. I feel that's a bit of a squeeze even if it fits the nine weeks in between tournaments on the Ideal Calendarâ„¢ especially for a version jump. So I was considering Qualifiers starting October 17th, have the week of the 24th as the buffer week between, and then opening day is on Halloween. In one instance we have Grip Weekend starting on Halloween and the other is the whole shebang starting on it. I know some of the hyp boys would like to have more of the cup within October itself.
