    I have been getting a ‘Please wait, we are updating the game’ for a couple of hours now. And your link does the same thing. Both on my PC and my phone.

    Wonder what the competition
    Wonder what the competition rules mention about the race deadlines?

    I would look but it appears to be stuck, obviously knows there’s been cheating happening.

    Ah, the old ‘exploiting a loophole available to everyone’ excuse.

    Cheating. This is why I didn’t bother this season.

    Yep.

    Leaves a really sour taste. We may as well get Lance involved.

    Like I said, the only decent
    Like I said, the only decent thing is to reset teams to when the race started.

    Some people have received an unfair advantage, and there is not one who can have chosen people in a break after the race had started who didn’t know that this was cheating (given the deadline is always before the race starts), which the vast majority of subscribers didn’t do.

    It’s plain wrong.

    I only noticed it after it
    I only noticed it after it was posted on the forum. For everyone to see. I honestly don’t remember it happening last season. But if there was a race on the day that the times changed, it most likely did happen.

    There was NO cheating, to cheat, you would need to hack the game somehow, it was open for everyone.

    There was a mix up in the server timing because of the change to UK clocks. So the stage was still open once the race began.

    You have cheated Gkam84. You and your merry band who saw it happen last year and decided to take full advantage of it.

    That was a conscious decision on your parts to put riders in your teams who started out in a breakaway, therefore gaining an unfair advantage.

    Funnily enough the dictionary defines cheating as gaining an unfair advantage.

    This has implications on today’s races, and for the rest of the season too.

    Do the decent thing.

    Tbh I think it should be discussed in it’s own thread at least then everyone will be aware that various people have cheated including those who run some of the games….

    Poor form really especially considering a big company like wiggle has it’s name associated with a game that has been paid for by some people and yet tolerates blatant cheating

    Couldn’t agree more chiv30.

    There is only one fair way of doing this and that is to set the teams back to the time the race started.

    It deserves its own thread so that people see it.
