I have opened the comp; there will be lots of rider changes I assume, but it will give you something to waste next week thinking about.

I think it’s almost stable but now the deadline is tomorrow ‘s one

If transfers are allowed that

If transfers are allowed that are recorded here I cant remember my full team but transfers I know I can make based on memory of rider values :

Out Pinot, Ciccone, Gall

In Philipson, Mozzato, Coquard

It’s looking like I’m done with this comp. I lose my league without making transfers today. It’s that simple.

17 days effort down the drain.

I am in that position of

I am in that position of having saved transfers and was planning 5 today so am very frustrated. The problem with extending the deadline is twofold though. Firstly we don’t know when the problem will be fixed & I for one can’t wait indefinitely refreshing my tablet. Secondly, once the race is live, there is an opportunity for sharp practice (ie, if I was planning to bring Cavagna in & he wasn’t in the break, would I still bring him in?) I personally think that neutralising the stage is the fairest solution but I’m sur  there will be valid arguments for leaving it as it is or extending the deadline. 

[trenzalorian]

Totally disagree that

Totally disagree that neutralising would be fairest.

This is a completely different profile and many of us have saved transfers for just this day.

Neutralising simply removes the opportunity for us to catch up over those who have spent transfers earlier.

It kills out whole race.

Transfer deadline needs to be extended an hour.

thanks Tony appreciate it.

Iv’e been urgently trying to

Iv’e been urgently trying to contact Dave for the past hour with no luck. Dave will have to make the call whether to neutralise or not. I agree that neuralisation would be fairest, in that most players would keep the same team for stage 19. Server is obviously stuffed; there is nothing Andy or I can do about that. We have to wait for Dave to fix.

[RambleOn]

Really hard to be fair here.

Really hard to be fair here. But this and give back the transfer to those that did them so they can adjust for tomorrow as it is a bit different profile. 

[trenzalorian]

No when it gets fixed they

No when it gets fixed they need to extend the transfer deadline.

This is such an important stage for those of us who have stored enough transfers to put sprinters in and get points over those who have used too many transfers.

Freezing things for today would kill it for a lot of people.

17 stages in on the biggest race of the year. Not good enough.

I was gonna do Pedersen,

I was gonna do Pedersen, Philipsen, Groenewegen, Coquard and Meeus but then I noticed Laporte that ‘s when game crashed.

Looking like site will not be
Looking like site will not be fixed in time for transfer deadline. Would neutralising the stage be the fairest option what with what looks like another chance of a sprint stage tomorrow so people that have picked will prob already have sprinters in place?

[RambleOn]

Yeah today is the transition
