Once a race is open, I cannot
Once a race is open, I cannot adjust deadlines, only boss man can do that. All I do is set up races, do startlists and points. I do not have the power to open/close races or adjust anything once a race has started. As Dave found out just recently, he thought I had more options that I actually did.It is maybe something for him to think about, but to be fair, there are four of us running races and I cross between them all, setting up stages well in advance, I’ve got every stage set up till the end of Tour De France at the moment. I load in startlists and do scores when others aren’t available. But there cannot be someone on hand 24/7, no matter how much I’d like to be. So if a problem comes up, it cannot always be sorted right away.
Also, I did take a nice big penalty in Volta Catalunya: Stage 5

northstar wrote:… it’s still cheating…Well, I’m running out of ideas, but this (!) one may work! 😕 Gkam, why don’t you take take a 50 point penalty in the next race and that way you voluntarily give up the points you gained with the breakaway? #o Crap, there’s unlimited transfers for Flanders, that (!) won’t work… Hmmm…. damn, Northie… what now? :W
I have to say this. I think Ray (below) was very upfront and (!) he brings up a point that’s potentially more significant:
ray silvester wrote:I freely admit to taking advantage of it by changing Gruzdev to Aregger after the break was known… I’m happy to have my 177 docked to 167… people are getting so worked up about it….yet barely a ripple when breakaway riders are scored that don’t even finish without a mention of this rule change anywhere… Surely over the course of a season this will have much more effect on the final rankings than one breakaway being taken advantage of due to a clock change?On another note, according to the Gent – Wevelgem thread, chris noted that the clocks were wrong at 10:09 30th March 2014:
chrisdstripes wrote:Has the clocks going forward thrown out the transfer deadlines? eg this one says deadline is 11:25 UK time, but the race starts at 11:25 Belgian time. Just didn’t want people to be able to make transfers once the race has started. Might be wrong… its all a bit confusing for me…I think the transfer window was supposed to close at 11:30, if I’m reading correctly (http://fantasy.road.cc/stages)
Gkam84 posted his team at 12:27 30th March 2014.
G, I don’t know if you have these system privileges, but could you have been able to close the window? I don’t know how fair it would have been to notice the error and close the transfer window immediately, but in the worst case, it might have been better to close the window than to leave it open… chris and ray did both bring it up with enough time to have been able to close it at the posted time…

The points will never ever be reversed so get over it and stop being a complete muppet.
Can I ask…..did you take advantage of the “loophole” ?
Sorry mate been at work so just read your comment – the answer is no, i picked my team the day before and left it at that as i was at work the next morning.
Fair enough we all gotta work 🙂
And my reason for asking was simply that you seemed to be pushing the problem away as much as the people who did take advantage so was just wondering .
Cheers for the answer though

Just been discussing posting
Just been discussing posting privileges with someone else, banning northstar will do nothing, because he/she is the type of arrogant mofo who would set up another account to complain about itjohnny2names
Jeez, this thread has become
Jeez, this thread has become tedious.Yes, it’s a bit cheap to select riders in a break after the stage has just started.
No, it’s not cheating.
No, road cc are not liable to be hounded in court for it.
Slightly unfortunate, but mistakes happen, let’s move on.However, northstar’s trolling has taken a turn for the worse, and I would request that he be banned for his language abuse. You lose your right to freedom of speech when you become abusive.
End of.
No Chiv, you have been asking
No Chiv, you have been asking questions and getting answers, Some have just been answering their own questions and then demanding more answers 😉Northstar, here is a definition of Freedom of speech for you
“Freedom of speech is the political right to communicate one’s opinions and ideas using one’s body and property to anyone who is willing to receive them.”
For freedom of speech to work, you need someone to listen, unfortunately with your constant going over a subject that has been covered and answered, no-one is willing to receive you “freedom of speech”

I couldn’t care what you post about FoS i know more about it than you (or anything for that matter, you and others have shown your true colours).
It’s very ironic who is dragging this back up now ; )

I have always been and always will be my own person ….
I have asked stumps if he exploited the system without an answer
I asked the general populace if anything would change …you answered that
I pointed out to Dave that ,1, the use of Godwin law as a form of censorship nullifies it’s use and , 2, asked a question based on his own legal jargon both of which have been ignored
I have suggested north was out of order for use of the c bombI believe all of the above were legitimate statements/ questions which I as a paying individual had every right to ask/ state and expect a response
I have stated I am satisfied with your answer so how have I been hooked in?
Again if I’m confused and this wasn’t including me then I’d be happy to hear confirmation from you on that 🙂
Edit: I’d like to know how you can see who has liked comments because I’m pretty sure I haven’t liked any of my own :S

They are referring to me, it’s funny because I couldn’t care less about that, it’s just yet another thing they seem to be “attacking” me with.Gkam84 wrote:The argument was

Nothing was set out – lie. (The “argument” is still as valid as it was when you decided to cheat.
I have “hooked” no one in (they have voiced their opinion of their own free will – you know what freedom of speech is right? ; ) ) – where as i’m sure you or others have, it’s pretty obvious : )
Also another thing that needs to said is at first I wasn’t that bothered, it was someone else who started this – I suspected it would be corrected in good faith – alas i was wrong which was when I jumped in.
Yes you do look pretty stupid Gkam, amongst other things : ).
