World Tournament Inconsistency

In Dragon Ball, it was held every 3 years, was it not? Yet in Z, it's held 7 years before the Boo arc, the actual Boo arc, and 10 years after? Regardless of the number, the intervals are off. The only explanation I can guess is "cancellation."

As we see in z
The world tournament completely changes. Its more or less a tourist trap
So they probably have it anytime they want money

At first it was every 5 years, but since things started getting more entertaining by the time Jackie and Goku came around they turned it into every 3 years. It stayed every 3 years from that point to the final chapter.

The whole thing was canceled for a while after the whole Piccolo fiasco, remember?

Gohan was 5 years old. Piccolo trained to defeat Goku in Budokai , so meaning that the events were cancelled.

It wasn't held for a while because they had to rebuild the entire area.

Then it was 7 years between 24th and 25th. 4 years between 25th and 26th, then 3 years again up until the final chapter.

It was said the tournament itshelf was cancelled after everything that happened IIRC, I guess the rules might have changed as well, and the tournament was held whenever they wished to do it.

I agree with this.

I always thought that this was because the tournament arena and surrounding area were destroyed, so they had to get re-built.

At least in the manga, we don't know how long ago the 24th Tenkaichi Budokai was when we're first introduced to Mr. Satan.
Also, we need to consider that it's possible that the officials thought that the Cell Games were somewhat of a tournament, therefore re-scheduled it, or decided to put it on a hiatus.
