Why not 1 competition in hills where there in real life is only one competition. For example, Lillehammer HS 100 and Lillehammer HS 138, Bischofshofen and so on. And there it is 2 competition in real life like Planica, there vil be 2 competitions.

Calendar summer is over :) most of the people who voted on 1 x 19 hills took part in 1-2 WC's during the season. This game is not a night shift in the factory, it is supposed to bring a lot of fun and it does. If you are tired of playing tournaments, take longer break and the hunger of jumping will surely come back :) In the name of jumpers who still enjoy the compettition I postulate to bring back 2 x 19 hills. As a fact that many active players don't visits the forum I suggest to make a poll on game's chat during the Saturday evening WC.
keep flying and keep calm :)

In 1.5 will be 22-25 hills. 2x22-25 = 44-50. It's too much. 1x 22-25 will be ok.

I voted for 2x before and I still think it is a better choice.
It's not too long, this is a computer game, loads of people spend 12hours/day in front of it playing games....this game needs more action. Jumping in non stop world cup server is not so exciting, that is why online traffic pretty much comes and goes with these tournaments.

I don't see how that argument supports your case :D. Not everybody has time to spend 12 hours a day playing nor is doing so (hopefully) a goal that people strive to achieve. Many people playing this game have work, studies or other hobbies that interfere with or are harmed by staying up late playing games. Some people don't like to enter only part of a tournament, e.g. I like to jump the whole thing and if I don't have time for that I won't show up at all. If a lot of people are like that then making tournaments significantly longer may perhaps even reduce activity. Having said that I agree that 19 hills feels short, but the ideal is closer to 25-30, which we will almost reach with the new hills. 38 is just a lot.

I do agree that more action would be nice but I think increasing the frequency of tournaments would be a better solution to that than increasing their length.
