    Dave – the game site’s looking better and better by the day. You must be nearing the top of that curve (unless it turns out to be a faux plateau) =D>

    I don’t know how you’d feel about this but what about a link to the cqranking as an extra button for each rider? (just in case you’re running short of new ideas 🙂 )

    Also, how about for next year (so there’s plenty time to work out how to do it), each team also has to run a women’s team as well to qualify for points. The UCI don’t seem to doing much so maybe the weight of Road.cc’s thousands of cycling fantasists might boost the status of the women’s peloton.

    It’d be cool if the comp started earlier (TdU, Qatar etc) so there’d be even less days in the year when I don’t have anything interesting to do in the morning at work /:)

    Well I knew it was a joke as 1. I knew what date the race started, so knew it hadn’t, and 2. I started the thread he posted on.

    But my point has nothing to do with whether people laughed or not does it, its about context, and your totally missing my point. As you seem to think everything you do is correct or right, and what others do is wrong, or thats how it seems from your seemingly sarcastic (and sometimes insulting responses), well thats how they read, not helped by putting (!) are every other word

    Ive not watched any of your links and don’t intend to.

    I didn’t take it as a joke! [( I almost had a heart attack that day! [( What was so funny about that? [( Did you laugh? Did anyone say “Good one, Gkam”? I think general panic was the general reaction! And, honestly, you don’t think people were annoyed and irritated enough with the prank to start naming their threads with the current year?

    Gkam did that as joke (and had you not started doing all the stuff you seem to do all the time, a simple joke is how it would have been with the regulars), you just bring threads up to annoy people, quote people, and you quote people to make it say what you want rather than the whole quote they actually said.

    Also you punctuation is shocking, what is this all about (!), either put an exclamation mark or don’t

    First of all, my links to videos are not, I repeat, not (!) stupid. They’re very (!) carefully selected, and I am insulted that you cannot, or will not (!), appreciate that! [(

    Second, please (!) watch your language on these boards (!). There are, after all, women and children reading this (!)

    But most of all, I cannot fathom what could possibly be wrong about bringing up an old post to celebrate how far the game has come through the efforts of some very fine individuals and I cannot believe you, of all (!) people, would be insulted, you (!) who brought the post up from last year on the Dauphine which brought this (!) response!

    Enrique, seriously now, STOP digging up old dead posts.

    This one is over two years old.

    Dave,
    I’ve just noticed I’m not in the W Mids league, even though I set my region quite some time ago. Is there any reason for this? Have I missed something I should have done?

    yeh i guess, i just think the boundaries bring another element, makes you have to make tough choices, more risk vs reward

    I think dave is looking into extending for next year so you could pick up to 1 GC, 2 KM, 2 PC, 3 AR and as many domestiques as you like (within the 9) to add a bit more variety

    I just think it would be too untactical without some sort of boundary, especially considering the vast amount of riders

    Limited budgets and transfers
    Limited budgets and transfers are boundaries. You’d still have to use your nous to choose an effective team.

    Look at the Halfords fantasy TdF game. You can pick whoever you like. They have made it too easy by under-valuing all the riders though. It would be totally impossible for me to afford the same team in the road.cc game.

    I’m only in the Halfords game for the prizes, btw. The road.cc league is where it’s at!
