As a wcs player (I don't consider myself a veteran even though I'm maxed) I think that this is a bad idea. However, apart from that, I could say that this could work with the right implementation, but Cyber, you have overlooked some important things:

  1. How exactly would you advertise and spread this? How would all new people know that it's that time of WCS when they can actually enjoy all the free races?

    Possible solution: Have an addition in the name "All Races Available @ Saturdays." However, our server name is already more than long enough and it's unclear how many people would pay attention to that.
  2. This would likely to get under more skins than you might think. I can easily imagine quite a few people who would be extremely against this idea.
  3. One of the main things (at least for me personally) what kept my playing WCS was the challenge and the want to experience all races and etc. If I'd have had everything given free to me, I may have left after trying it out. The learning curve and the challenge makes it fun for quite a few people and you'd be possibly getting ridding of these.
  4. Finally - and most importantly - this wouldn't work as if everyone would be aware that it's Saturday, they'd all would login (lets assume that most people would end up buying reserved slots or admins when playing at that time) and play it (since there's a fair amount of people who still don't have a lot of maxed, a lot of regulars would possibly play at this time to test out every race). Now, if server is full with RS and admins, how exactly these new players would join? Very few would be willing to pay upfront for something they haven't even tried and the server being full would make it all but impossible for any new people to come in and join the server - which I believe was the whole point of this idea.


All in all, this idea does have some promise, but it's a lot of work and the concerns need to be answered before this could be efficient.
