    Teams have not been picked on
    Teams have not been picked on that basis, don’t give me that BS…..I said it towards the of Stage 1, which after finding out there was no information on the primus sprints, I came back and corrected myself.

    14:45 towards the end of Stage 1

    Right, so I haven’t been able to find any breakdown for the primus sprints.

    So what I have done for today is scored the Golden KM sprints.

    The points jersey is scored on overall and the sprints jersey is based on the primus classification. Just in case anyone wonders about their scores.

    If there was a breakdown that someone knows of for the primus sprints, there were two today. I will remove the Golden KM sprints and they will be replaced with the primus.

    I’ll happily just delete the whole tour as this was just put in as a bonus…

    Exactly. No one minds what
    Exactly. No one minds what the rules are as long as they stay the same and are made perfectly clear before the race. In instances like this, could we ask for clarity before the race starts in future. Either that or we simply stick to one format and ignore the additional sprints. It’s very confusing.

    Joel is right here….. It was said that they would not be scored and so they should not be…Teams have been picked as a result of that statement…. Yet another case of the goalposts being moved…. 🙁

    But the Golden shouldn’t be
    But the Golden shouldn’t be scored. You have said they aren’t being scored so they can’t be scored.

    This is what was said. Therefore this is how it needs to be.

    This is what I said half way through stage 1, because I thought they were only time bonuses, but they actually hold points aswell and because I could not find details of the primus sprints for stage 1, still cannot find them, I scored the Golden.

    The Primus and Points jerseys were always both going to be scored because there seems to be no mountains jersey.

    I transferred Asselman in after Stage 1 to free up some funds, and because he scored 23 points.
    I thought he might fancy another breakaway and after Gkam84 said he was counting Golden KM points it was worth a punt.

    Certainly confusing. The
    Certainly confusing. The Primus (combativity) sprint seems to score differently in the actual race every time; stg 1 total =95; stg 2 totals 40+38. (cycling news).

    Yesterday the golden kilometre had points awarded (which added to the points jersey) (cycling news and official website), but these seem to have disappeared today.

    The road.cc “Information on scoring” lists scoring overall standings both for points and sprints jersey. It also gives 6,4,2 points for intermediate sprints. Because it doesn’t specify which sprints, it could be interpreted to include both Primus and golden kilometre.

    I assumed, along with most other people, (including Gkam apparently), that only the 2 Primus would be counted.

    It is hard to play this game when the rules are obscure or change. It has been a constant forum theme for me. Obviously you pick your team according to the points available.

    For this particular race though, most players would have started with 8 good sprinters, so it probably doesn’t matter. Did anyone start with Asselman in their team?

    It seems a little odd to say
    It seems a little odd to say the least to score 5 intermediate sprints in one stage plus a different jersey too, doesn’t it?
