You want to make something exciting and successful? Make it like you're making it for ADD 10 year olds. Everyone today basically is.
At least the site had some activity recently.

So here’s the formats I’ve run
1. 3Qs(5mins). Mains with and without bumps.
2. 2 Qs(6min). 6 minute mains with bumps
3. 1Q(5min). Triple mains for all. 5 minutes
4. R1 random sort heads up. R2-3 resort. Head’s up. Double mains. No bump
5. 1 minute seeding solo run. 3Qs (5min). Single main. No bumps.
6. For qualifying. Both rolling and staggered starts.

Probably missed something. But it’s close

I don’t know which works best. The all heads up racing was completely unexpected. I race faster then I can qualify.
