I hear you.

Finally someone i picked wins a stage (costa) and still i dont move up!

Yeah, I must say I agree with your sentiments a little.

Just a little input from my side to look at for next year possibly... maybe a little higher point allocation for the stage winners? It seems a little unfair (for lack of a better word) that a random and seldom contested thing like the team comp scores 4 points and yet a stage winner only gets 5 points? Maybe ten/eight for the stage would make it more worthwhile and the point scorers a little more random?

 

I mean say for example Rui Costa wins another stage or two in this years tour, he would still over this entire tour score only 20/25 points despite (in theory of course) having had a cracking tour de France. Maybe even up the points for most combative rider too - it keeps things interesting and a little more random?

 

In the current model in my opinion, it's just not at all worthwhile to select any rider that is not likely going to contest for a jersey - and that pretty much rules out 75% of the riders.

 

Just my 2cents, (please I am not dissing anyone here), have really enjoyed the game as a little extra to the already great spectacle that is the tour :clap:

I greatly appreciate all the effort that has gone into this :thumbup:

Is TJ finally going to earn me a point this year? Talk about a waste of a pick.

 

Edit: Evans even worse pick. What was I thinking?

Which stage have your "picked" riders stepped up to the plate?

Seems the big guns in all categories ignore the medium stages, and it's only the flat, ITT and High Mountains where the points stack up

No really, how did I drop a place!?!

 

Tj has been better for me when he's been 121st then coming in second... and I've got decent representation in the top 5.

 

Is it Cadel? Is he dragging me down? He's dead to me...
