Just saw that the WWC tab is no longer there, so I thought I might ask the same question as before: did I finally win the controversial stage in China where the results got neutralised? =P~ And if I did, do I get a form to claim my glasses? 😀

So as well as seemingly having cheaters help to run the “service” or game (and competing in it) we also have a incompetent help to run it, it seems?

We know the high scorer and as was said in the email that went out, the player will still get the prize

There’s a prize for the top score in a stage? Can I have mine for the Ronde van Drenthe?

From http://fantasy.road.cc/howto, about prizes:

In the event of a tie, the following criteria, where applicable, will be used to determine the winner:
Highest single stage score posted within the competition
Most scoring riders on the stage
Highest scoring individual rider on the stage
Coin toss

The second criterion applies to your case, I think… I know, its annoying, but I’ve already lost a stage win on coin toss, so it can be worse than in your case…

Armchair Cyclist : I am sorry I made that remake about the smiley, I had a long day of answering posts on here regarding the stage and you came on to say you had noticed, but hadn’t thought to mention it to anyone. Kinda just got my goat up.

So I am sorry.

It is not yours or anyone who plays the games responsibility to spot errors, but if you come across one, it would be nice just to give one of us a shout, even if you are unsure about it being an error and that way, we can correct it in time and nothing like this happens again.

Mistakes will happen, it is the nature of cycling racing that things change last minute at races. We try and get everything right, but sometimes, small errors slip through the cracks.

If in the future ANYONE comes across what they think to be an error, please, give one of us a shout.

I can’t remember what time it was on Saturday night when I posted my team: I suspect sometime around midnight. I was simply aware that despite the published deadline, it evidently did not sit correctly with the time of the race, and I should not wait and post an entry on Sunday morning. Would there have been anyone ready and available to make alterations at midnight on Saturday night? I suspect not. The relevant forum does not link instinctively and immediately from the game pages.

I would argue that any who legitimately entered a team in good time for the event should have their score included: they made appropriate input, they should get appropriate reward. I would invite you to put the matter to a vote.

The winning score was 207 if I remember right, I don’t know what will happen with the stage prize.

Looks like I might have won this stage, alone or not, ’cause I’ve got 207 points (I really should read all the posts before replying, shouldn’t I?)… my score is only due to the fact that I was expecting some friends to come over for the weekend, so I took a few minutes minutes on Saturday morning to quickly put a team together, knowing that the rest of the weekend would be occupied with more enjoyable activities than research :D

It would be good if cgipryan got the stage winners prize. 207 is a very good score for a one-day race, which would have been close to winning anyway.
