    Just pullng this together into 1 thread. Not sure how to get the scores at the end of the #TOC though.

    So far, I read…
    Is there scope for a ‘pick three yanks’ comp?

    Its a marathon, not a snickers

    There are only 36 yanks riding so it might be a bit tight for picking 3 but its worth having a go.

    How about doing it on a smaller budget? Say 30 credits? Thinking

    Tough to go from the Giro budget to the ToC. Very different beast.

    If there are enough for a Los Tres Yanquis comp, then I’ll pile in. 30 space credits total would be sensible.

    Nah, I would say 40 credits is ok. 30 riders means over 900 combinations.

    *Just one slight problem Tom Amos’s team was over budget, noticed this as he had the exact team that I wanted but was about .6 off being able to afford it.

    Although t just some fun at the end of the day

    The best team you could have picked I so far believe would have been Craddock, Phinney and Chris Jones (scoring slightly more the Tom’s team)

    There aren’t many americans,
    There aren’t many americans, so to drop the budget too much may make it too hard, so lets stick with 40.0.

    I might do a calculation where i divide the final total score of a threesome by their total value and see which threesome has the best points per value score, just for fun. bit nerdy maybe.

    people need to decide on the credits first, 30 or 40. I have a team for both if it gets up and running.

    Personally i would go with 40.
