    Other riders: you’ll be able
    Other riders: you’ll be able to see who scored what for other teams in stages that have been completed. You won’t be able to see anyone’s current team. Again, rollout for that on monday…

    As for rider points, well as of (probably) monday you’ll be able to click on a rider’s name to see their points breakdown from within the game.

    Hello chaps. Point taken
    Hello chaps. Point taken about the transfers. I’ll make changes to the system so that those transfers will be possible. That change will prob go live later this eve so you may want to hang fire on your stage 2 moves till tomorrow morning…

    Nikalway beat me to it, thanks 🙂

    Miffed, you should have 18 points for Farrar (14 stage + 4 GC position), 12 for Gerdemann (11 + 1). Anything else and something’s broken, so let us know.

    I’ll flag the Google Doc spreadsheet request to Dave, don’t know if that is doable.

    And someone on Twitter asked if we could let people see which riders others had in their teams, so that’s on the list too 🙂

    Both Gerrderman and Farrar
    Both Gerrderman and Farrar got stage points and GC points points.

    * 20 points for first position on the stage down to 1 point for 20th position
    * 5 point bonus for every other member of the stage winner’s team
    * 10 points for overall leader in the GC down to 1 point for 10th position
    * Intermediate sprint points as awarded for the stage (not stage finish)
    * Intermediate KoM points adjusted* for the stage (not summit finishes)
    * 5 points for the White jersey leader down to 1 point for 5th position
    * 20 point bonus for the most combative rider. We love those guys.
    * Lanterne Rouge: 10 point bonus for rolling in dead last. At least you tried.

    * KoM points are adjusted as follows. Basically the number of riders who score is the number of points on offer over any col.

    * Cat 4 & Cat 3: as awarded
    * Cat 2: 6 points for first down to 1 point for sixth
    * Cat 1: 8 points for first down to 1 point for eighth
    * HC: 10 points for first down to 1 point for 10th

    just signed up to the billy
    just signed up to the billy no mates league. The I agree about the transfers, being able to set them up at the same time would be the solution (though I dont know how hard thatd be).

    Also the scoring is hard to work out, ive got big points for gerrderman and farrar that I cant work out how i got, but not complaining. Would it be possible to get breakdown of the scores (a google docs spreadsheet of all the riders scores each day would surfice) juts being too geeky.

    Same problem here; I can’t replace Farrar with Cavendish because Cav’s more expensive, but that wouldn’t be a problem if I could replace Wiggins with VandeVelde. But I can’t do that because I’ve already got Farrar and Millar. This could get annoying…

    Both good points, Dave’s the man who would need to see if this is possible, he looks after the gaffa tape and string side of the site – back tomorrow but after the stage starts so nothing doing before then I’m afraid.

    Finding the transfers a pain with the 2 riders per team rule causing problems with points limit. Say I’m trying to change Wiggins to Menchov and Freire to Cavendish, not enough points to do the sprint swap first, too many Rabo riders to do the GC swap first. The end result is OK I’d have enough points, and only 2 riders from rabobank

    c’est la vie

    bon chance

    Same here.

    Want to replace Wiggins with Cantador who is more expensive so have to replace another guy with a cheaper rider first. Unfortunately I can’t do that as the replacement I want to bring in whois cheaper is a Sky rider and I can’t do that as the replacement list blocks out the Sky riders as I already have 2 of them. Ultimately my team will meet the price and team member requirements.

    Maybe this transfer system can do the removes first then the adds or apply them both together?
