I agree with this. It is clear he just made a mistake. (btw in spanish, 2nd surname is redundant - as there are 2nd name in other languages - except if it helps to better identify the person in the case the first one is very common). Personally, I believe a combination of 1 name + 1 surname...

Well, I doubt "Héctor Renán Álvarez Acosta" was the name you knew by "Héctor Álvarez Martínez". So it has to be just a mistake, you surely copied the name of the wrong guy. Initially I sent my list just with first surnames, so armchair asked me which Héctor was cause someone had choosen before...

Also an albo d'oro ordered by gold, silver & bronze like the real races would be nice. I think I might be 1st there with 2 gold, 2 silver & 1 bronze so far :)

There's not a magic recipe to do well here. In the end you can only select 18 riders and see how they do over 3 years :) In my case, some editions a lay more on youngster and others in more experienced riders, but I usually try to take different profiles to try to cover it all. Obviously a...

That's surely cause he's been working at the front of the peloton, as the other 3 guys you mentioned (all of them are good rouleurs). I don't think in this game you should choose every rider hoping they will be world class talents at top level. You can also choose good riders that simply you...

Imo Ashlin is not a sprinter. The one that has a profile really really similar to Brennan is Henry Hobbs. Both did good on the road as junior but were even more focused on the track. Both won IP worlds with best time ever. Both british, both to Visma devo. Both really fast with a big engine. Why...

Jasch was also a rider that was close to enter into my team. so I find strange that nobody selected him. About Gajdulewicz, he sadly had a serious accident this winter when a car run over him. Long recovery ahead.

2 riders from 2007 that I like a lot their upside but wasn't brave enough to select: Henry Hobbs & Eñaut Urkaregi. In one of my many sketches they were in alongside Alessio Magagnotti cause they are probably the 2007 riders I like the most right now, I think that could be a good...

Honestly, he was my 18th rider. I could have put him as I could have put many others, I think my last hesitation was between him and Gualdi and maybe I decided wrong but I was under a big time pressure this morning haha I think for most would have been a similar case: this year there were not...

I didn't go with Noval cause I still remember the facepalm with betting early for Brenner many years ago. But I considered not only Noval but also his 2008 pals Van Kerckhove, Haugetun & Herzog. It's a possibility that some of those 4 end in the best scoring team 3 years from now.

My team ordered by age groups (I went with mostly youngster + a couple odd older picks): 2007: Ostiz, Swierenga, Arens, Boothman, Pegolo, Kiros 2006: Wolff, Dixon, Bates 2005: Appleton, Siegers, Coupland, Holmgren, Wilson 2004: Roldan 2002: Mitterwallner 1996: Tieleman 1993: Venerucci Venerucci...

That happens every season in the emerging games. Australian nats are before the deadline, and also some exotic races like Tachira for the men.

It would have been very worrisome not to start ahead, taking in mind that I selected 5!!!! australians. I'm not really sure about that in the long term game tho, but didn't have that much time to reflect lol

EDIT - after reading last organizer message allowing a lil more time :sweatsmile: I delete the team I posted here, send it to him in DM and maybe will think a little bit about the selection as I did it in a absolute rush - *** I did the team in a little more than half an hour just looking...
