And you're right gkam, now that I look at it I see that my memory of the Giro was skewed a little. But it led to me picking De Gendt today, so I'm not complaining.
There is nothing to win for a stage victory in the Vuelta. So a draw is a draw
Fair enough but I was more responding to
I was going to do the ones you were interested in later, but you beat me to it.
Well big bag of FAIL for me today
Put Moncoutie(6 points) in for Valverde(34 points)
put Marczynski(5 points) in for Talansky(18 points)
Why, why, why, why don't i ignore myself
Plus didn't think Quintana would be up either!
I'm going to call this a POOR day for me.
I scored 153 with only one rider not scoring. Which on any other day would be alright.
Then I looked at my purist team. 156 with only 4 riders scoring
Your having a laugh GKam. I've got a -15 thats a poor day.I've got 163 today my second highest score and I was delighted to be two hundred and twentieth.
164 today but more importantly a 135 on my purist team to take me back to the top of the standings happy days!
216 for my purist team with 6 scorers
159 for my main team with 7 scorers
The only reason I said it was a poor day. After 2 and a bit weeks. My purist team which I picked before the race is outscoring my transfer team which I am changing out every day
I still have a list of 3 teams. My purist team, The team I started transfers with and the "if I had another account" team. At the end of the Vuelta, I'll be working out where I went wrong
I know where I went wrong, the wrong DS picks at the start plus the cost of the extra transfers to fix it is what's cost me really. If I'd started with Talansky, Meersman, Quintana, Bouhanni and Marczynski I'd be fighting for top spot but I picked De Weert and Da Fluente instead of Meersman and Talansky which cost me maybe 120 points early on plus 40 in penalty transfers.
What's most annoying is that I made the right picks on my purist team which is why I'm doing well.
One of the hardest things about this game is trying to change DSs when the terrain keeps changing, in the first week where I kept having to swap out climbing and sprinting stars there was no way for me to change DSs without being hit with the penalty.
Also, I probably stuck with Froome over Valverde for one or two stages too many.
