I may be wrong, but haven't you done todays points wrong?

It seems you have done it as 20 points down to 1 rather than new 35, 30 and so on scoring, or is it only 20-1 for ITT's?

If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

I reckon they should be Slagter's points - maybe cos they're alphabetically adjacent? I'm sure the guys will fix it soon...

Thanks! Ok, so, if it's Slagter's points, which sounds right, he gets 16 points for 7th place and 1 point for being 5th on the Young Rider Classification... Where do the other points come from? Am I missing something?....

Correct it seems the sprint points are different for the giro compared to how they are scored for other races where it has been 6,4,2

I don't understand Mark Cavendish's points today. The page:

http://fantasy.road.cc/stages?sid=35

has him at 43 points. I can see he got 35 points for thw in and 5 for the PC competition. Where'd he get the other 3 points? Thanks! 1

You say we should be true to the game, well our KOM points scoring is not even the same anyway.
And also as far as i am aware we have never had PC points when a TT has been the opening stage

Hi Stumps, yes they did give KOM points out for the first three people at the intermediate time over that climb - fairly unusual for an ITT but I imagine with it being the opening stage it was a way of getting someone into the jersey.

Mentioned that to Dave when I caught up with him earlier, since there was no reference to KOM points being awarded in the game scoring for the stage, we won't award them after the event, so as to keep it fair for everyone.

Wow, I understand, but, honestly, I think we should be true to the race. If the race awarded KOM and PC points, I think the game should reflect whst's happening in the race... I may be wrong, but I think the only reason they were not added to the game was that no one expected them to be awarded...

I mentioned earlier that Martin's mindset has to be right for him to win otherwise he does nothing special.

Doesn't state points either in the stage details! 16
Should be as follows:

Stage (1st-20th): 35, 30, 25, 22, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

GC: 10 points for first down to 1 point for 10th

Young rider competition: 5 points for first position down to 1 point for 5th

Last man home: 10 points awarded for the last man home on a tour stage or one-day race

Team bonus: 5 points to every participating rider in the winning rider's team

Shouldnt Larsson have 35 points for the win plus 10 for GC and 5 points for the Green Jersey leader. As it says on le tour.fr pages

ARGH.

You're right. First time doing new scoring system (Dave's away). Will amend and upload again.

nickobec - No points classification points awarded in an ITT; usually an ITT wouldn't have KOM points either, but they were awarded in race so once Dave's back we'll get those added in.

Same here, wondered what was happening 20 to 1 + GC no point jersey (even though points awarded) and no KOM jersey points either.

Not that it bothers me, no Larsson, Wiggins or De Gendt
