Thanks for the info! I like your tip about the GC riders for MSR. I like Wiggo, but I don't need him for that race!
OK, so changing rider values & transfers...
If one of my riders goes up in value and I then transfer them out, do I get their post-increase value to spend on another rider - even if it takes my team value over 175 points?
And secondly: will the total aggregate cost of all riders in the game stay the same, so that the improvers are balanced out by the decliners?
Whats the code for the Purists league please?
No code for that one: it will magically appear after a couple of stages, with all the purists in it. We know who you are.
1) yes: you can amass extra money by being canny.
2) not necessarily.

hi
i kinda made a mistake- by accident i transfered Casar for cunego without doing anything and i can't transfer him back. please can i have some help changing him back.
Hi Rob, your stupid.
Slightly confused now :-S ....I have six riders greyed out and it says I have six transfers available before Gent-Wevelgem! I only expected four - which is right? (Not complaining if I have six!)
Bit confused. I picked my team and it included Cancellara. He finished 2nd, so I was expecting at least 19 points in total, plus I had some HTC Highroad riders so thought I should have got more points. However I am currently showing as having zero points. Have I done something wrong?
I've gone through everyone that's emailed me about getting zero points and so far one of the following has been true:
1) they didn't have nine riders selected
2) the completed their team selection after the deadline for the stage
if you did either of those things you won't have any points for stage 1.
We've changed the transfers to six for this stage based on the amount of rider changes. it reverts to four next week.
There was me happily looking forward to the coverage in the afternoon on Eurosport. Starts shortly after 1.00pm. My stupid schoolboy error of course was not realising that a 298km race might have to start a bit earlier than the tv coverage starts.
I put my team together in the morning, got it all finished by about 9.30. This of course is after the cut-off point. Therefore although I'm frustrated at getting a late start here, especially after picking a squad that did quite well in the race, I have to concede that it was clearly my own fault. Grrr.
You mean 'you're' stupid? Bad manners are depressing 'Jamesss' - illiteracy is unforgivable.
I too fell into the trap of scoring 0 points because I only selected 8 riders. The reason being the wording on my team homepage said 'You may complete a partial team at any point during the game' leading me to believe I could get away with 8 riders, not 9.
I thought that the transfer window for GW finished at 9 last night so I panicked and made some stupid transfers! I now see that you have until next week to make the changes. Is that right?
My friend, helped me make my fantasy league team, he put a stupid team name of pedalphiles???? I really do not want this team name! is there any way you can change it? thanks.
yes, just click on 'my account' and you can change it in there.
Thanks, now all i need to do is think of a good name
just a thank you for organising a superb comp.
ps I seem to have 6 transfers not 4 for next stage, is this becos I didnt use the 2 in race transfers and so they are added ??
No, we decided to up the transfers to 6 for this stage as there were a *lot* of roster changes. back to 4 for the next few...
are there any team leaders racing in the next event?
nope, not a single one is on the start roster
looks like Cyril Dessel will be a popular pick...
What happens with no GC riders in our teams? Do we all just race with and get points for 8 riders?
yes but don't forget that you need to select nine riders to score points in a stage. for G-W that means picking a non-participating GC rider. them's the breaks...
Thanks Dave. Yes I have 9 riders in team. No problem not getting a score for the GC rider if everyone is in the same boat.
Is there any possibility to reset changes? What happens in case of this kind of change? I choose Freire instead of Farrar, today I read that Freire will not participate, so I'd like to choose Farrar again. Is it possible when I've made other 5 changes?
So for transfers do I get 6 this week then another 4 for the week after. So for example I could transfer most of my team out and then four back for Flanders?
Also Is there going to be a cost increase in riders between GMAT wellegrem and Flanders?
changes can't be reset, sorry...
1) yes. six this week, then four a classic for the rest of the classics.
2) rider values get recalculated when we update the scores, based on how they scored and their popularity. so they might go up, or they might go down...
