    Hi arsene,

    Gaviria points are fine.  Only the top 3 in an intermediate sprint are awarded points.

    On the budget, we value riders before each competition and then set the budget accordingly.  There’s still a lot to think about, and it’s often not about just selecting the favourites, it’s picking the others from stage to stage.  Sometimes the budget’s tight, sometimes not so much.

    Glad you’re enjoying the game! I quite like it too 😀

    Ah thanks for clarifying Andy! Yeah it’s prob because I only play purist then. Maybe just my personal preference too. But for the last couple races I could pretty much select whoever I wanted so it felt a little like making an allstar team.

    Fair enough, I still didn’t score like I wanted to for Romandie but that was only a test for the Giro

    I hope this doesn’t come off

    I hope this doesn’t come off in a bad way, just my thoughts on the game now. Still the best fantasy game of all time and the work of you guys is very much appreciated.

    Btw it’s still super fun to play but it’s like you can pick whoever you want now. I don’t really like this as most players will have the same riders so it’s not so much about carefully scouting and analyzing riders and stages anymore to get that edge with a 4.6 rider.

    Hi guys,

    Hi guys,

    I’m back in the game for the Giro after a long hiatus. So hopefully my question is asked in the right place and doesn’t seem too stupid 

     Intermediate sprints are still counted right? If so isn’t Gaviria missing +2 from the Etna stage? He only scored 3 for his overall position in the sprint classification.

    Hi folks,

    Hi folks,

    All back up, scores and leagues should be up to date and DNFs from yesterday removed from the roster. Apologies for the downtime, and thanks for your patience 🙂

    I hope someone is working on this. Those of us on the American side of the pond don’t have the luxury of doing transfers in the morning. Can anyone let us know what the status is?

    We’ll look to open it

    We’ll look to open it sometime late next week probably, or just once there is a more complete startlist posted.

    Keep your eyes peeled.
