I’m gobsmacked that there are so few paying players. But a YTS lad could do it for you. I think they call them modern apprentices these days.

I’m doing men’s and women’s, but I don’t have all the time in the world to cover things. I’m self employed, plus I have commitments to women’s team outside of the internet, I go to races and do all the background work for them….
…So that’s me out for 9 days and unable to cover anything unless I can get wifi somewhere….
…The last few years that I have been doing the game, I was unemployed and had all the time in the world on my hands.

Time for some more volunteers.

It seems to me that you’re right. I think you’ve got a harsh way of stating it, but the fact is it used to be results were out within a few hours after the race was finished and there were various revisions of the start lists prior to the race starting… I got the impression that having a rider missing from the start list used to be an exception, rather than a rule… Whether it’s lack of enthusiasm, disinterest or a lack of clearly assigned responsibilities, I don’t know…

Sometimes I think it’s just a manpower issue, dr doesn’t seem to be around anymore, I don’t think TER is as involved as he was last year, G is sometimes around for the men’s races, but I have the impression his primary focus is on the Women’s Races, dave is around, like today, but not as often as before, Ghed has been taking on some scoring, but I don’t know if he’s responsible for every race now or not… Sometimes I think it’s just that too many races were added this year and they just don’t have the manpower to be on top of start lists and results all the time…

Thanks for the reply Gkam….. I am sure that others are thinking the same… it is getting annoying….

You have a nice touch, though, after you calm down a little…

I’m in the same boat Steve. I’ve lost a couple of riders aswell.

Looking at the back end, there seems to be only 2/4 logging on often and doing anything, unless it’s a race that the other 2 are running….

I and the other can only do so much.

Thanks for the reply Gkam….. Im not trying to point the finger at anyone mate, I just notice that things are not as efficient this year on a few things and I suppose this is my way of trying to get the powers that be to take note…. I am sure that others are thinking the same…
I research the startlists myself when time allows and I got lucky this time but it is getting annoying….as is the results service at times….

The apparent lack of
The apparent lack of enthusiasm to update the startlists is frustrating and appears to be becoming more and more the norm, as is the lack of enthusiasm from the organisers to get the results out in a acceptable timeframe…
I used to think that this game and indeed the site was the best thing since sliced bread…… This is my fourth year of playing and I am really disappointed with the service provided…… The service was better when it was free….
