    Okay, so we've reached the point where we've nearly built all the bits of the 2012 Fantasy Cycling game, only three days after it started. There's still a few things to do on the, erm, to-do list and these are they:

    1) rider form graphs and stage points on their pop-up profiles (plus headshots of everyone)
    2) tabs in user leagues for the different competitions
    3) invite box to invite a friend
    4) system emails with stage updates and previews
    5) mobile version of site

    all of this is scheduled to be ready for the Paris-Nice.

    is there any other functionality you'd like to see? if so, comment below. we won't guarantee that we'll build it but we do try and make the game as playable and friendly as possible.

    please note: this is not the place to discuss possible rule/scoring changes, as there won't be any rule/scoring changes. the rules are set for the season.

    cheers!

    I know you’ve always been
    I know you’ve always been able to sort it by form, but having an all be it small F beside there name makes it easier to spot, Its not really a factor towards the start of a race but as we get into the final week of a grand tour, people who don’t research will just pick the guys who have a D and F beside there name, knowing they will get some safe points

    Because as a grand tour goes on, the “form” riders are going to be those highest up in the GC, Points and Mountains, because in this game they are scoring points every day

    you’ve always been able to sort the riders by form, so nothing much has really changed. it’s just a bit more accessible. one of the main reasons for the redesign was to make the game easier to play. and form wasn’t much help picking valverde đŸ˜•

    Look at
    Quite agree Gkam84!!!

    Look at the TDU site if you want to know all that info. I’ve got a set of about 6/7 tabs with quick access to different sections of that site and a few others.

    The fun of it is doing the research, (although I still want those wheels). I especially like doing it in French and Spanish.

    A more relevant point to the actual forum though is;

    can we know the total amount of points different riders have scored for our team up to that point?

    It’s not really that important but would be fun to know. I’m sure Boassen Hagen is top of my team but who is 2nd or 3rd. Without some tedious calculating I don’t know.

    Maybe the rider who gets the most points in the Fantasy league overall could win the roadcc TDU Fantasy shirt prize. Perhaps Dave could give it to him in person!

    Hopefully this is one of the more simple requests – A latest stage score column to be added to all leagues between total score and positions changed.

    I’m aware you can access this by clicking into the overall score for a total breakdown, but this would be really interesting to see at first-glance.

    Cheers!

    I’m pretty sure when your searching for transfers you can put in the “search values below” or when you bring up the riders for the next stage it shows “add” if you can afford them. If not then you cant add them to your team.

    I see that now it’s not possible to see the transfers made by other people for the upcoming stage and I agree with that, but is it possible to see these transfers when the stage has started instead of after the end of the stage (like the last year? So it’s much more interesting to follow the stage…

    probably a css caching issue, they seem fine here. try emptying your cache.

    Pretty cool. Now, not to be ungrateful, but could you move the numbers to either side? I’m running IE 8 and the numbers appear practically right on top of the arrows.

    Could we have an option to make transfers in advance.

    For example i would enter what transfers i want for Sunday’s stage today and then the system would automatically make those transfers (providing i have enough credits) on Saturday.

    This would help make it fairer for people who are not able to log on every single day.
