NB!! Fantasy Cycling BUG needs fix - unlimited money

Hey,

Thought I'd report this. I've found a bug which basically allows me to build any team I want.

This happends when I am in "Pick team":

If I press the grey X button next to a rider on my team as id to remove him, I can press it fast two or three times, - hence get the money back two or three times.

I accidentally discovered it yesterday when I was playing around with a team I was pretty satisfied with - which I was unable to recreate today, out of obvious reasons!

I've uploaded a picture underneath which illustrates a team I was able to build - with money to spare. I've spent 217 on cyclists, and still have 114 left..  7

Hehe.. Would be some team!

If you had any self decency then you wouldnt do it, or if you did it accidently, then atleast build a legal team that would come in at the price it should. Thats totaly unfair, you lot are worse than ricardo ricco.

Huh?

Isn't it half decent to report a bug?  1

The picture I posted above was just an example of what an obsene team you could build with the bug, and not the actual team I was building.

Besides, as Dave informed us about, we would never be able to save the teams if they were over 150.

I think its only decent people at this forum!

Good luck in Quatar tomorrow!

I did not mean to sound angry and/or like I was having a go at you, I was mearly saying that anyone who wanted to use this 'tactic' to build a superteam they would be wrong to do so. I was not aiming it personally at you, as I think you did the right thing to report it, I was mearly discouraging others from cheating.

Good luck to you also in Qatar.

you wouldn't have been able to save your super-expensive team anyway, as the system checks to make sure a team is valid before it saves the changes.
