    For those who love to plan months ahead, I just noticed the Tour de France webpage is now showing full profiles, including profiles of the last kilometers, for every one of the 21 stages! 🙂 The TTT on Stage 9 concludes on a hilly note, and the pure mountain stages look f$&@ing incredible! Excuse the language… 😀 You can start looking at profiles here – http://www.letour.com/le-tour/2015/us/stage-1.html. Enjoy! 🙂

    3339 teams entered in the competition… At least 4 teams with the word ‘Velociraptor’ in them… 2 teams called ‘Team Velociraptor’… 140 teams that scored 0 points yesterday… 0. 😕 I wonder , do Purist teams show in the Standard competition, they don’t, do they? Some of these teams that scored nothing seem built for the mountains… 😕 And, ‘vive’ the creative minds of the folks that play here, here are 2 highly entertaining team names among those that scored 0 points yesterday, US Mammary Service and League of ordinary gentlemen. 🙂

    hello everybody, I’d like to play this competition, but I need to know.

    1) can I select totaly new Team for each stage (budget 170 points)?¨
    2) is’t necessary to fill all stages before TdF will start, or could I prepare the team before every new stage?

    THX you in advance for replies

    Purist has no transfers at all. You set a team at the start and that is the team that runs throughout.

    If you want to make transfers then choose the standard game. You get 45 transfers in total for the whole competition.

    Had to look it up… 😕

    reprobate
    1.an unprincipled person (often used humorously or affectionately).
    synonyms: rogue · rascal · scoundrel · miscreant · good-for-nothing

    In a weird way, I kind of admire your vocabulary. You’re obviously a well educated person.. 😕

    You are a reprobate. I get the fact that you are an iredeemable, filthy cheat. I get that you have no concept of being honest because you have been given over to vile affections. I don’t get why the organisesers of this contest didn’t cut you off two years ago.

    Isn’t that the most interesting part of this game?… 😕 You get me, sandy, you get me… I wish you’d get over the ‘cheating’ part, though, it’s really been for fun more than anything else… not for fame or glory… But maybe you’re right… 😕

    If I was as “inept” as you are then I would have a quantum-computing predictive analysis suite of software more powerful than JADE running a gazillion relational databases using datafeeds covertly tied into every team’s private performance data servers to tell me who will win all the points in the TdF and the best purist team to select to maximise my return.

    In preference to your NSA cheating ways, I will use cider.

    Wouldn’t you rather have a 100 credit budget allowance? 😀 If you’re inept as I am, a 100 point head start will disappear in the first 3 days! 🙂
