    The Great Grand-Tour-Game 2014/15 "TdF Monster Edition"

    Re: I like this game because it has a simple format. Pick 20 GC, pick 20 stage winners. You do all the work beforehand and then you can sit back and enjoy. From all the games I every played this also seems to be the only game that is very tight and full of suspension right to the end. I think...

    Faaark. I would happily swap your disappointing guys with my best ones and still get more points :eek: I guess that's why you are 2nd and I am somewhere in the 100dreds. That was a great team you picked.

    Re: Re: I live in New Zealand so I am always 12 hours behind - sorry to miss your generous offer :D I guess I could not take advantage of that so had to stay with Ewan to make it 3 x No.1 in a row. Valverde today maybe? :) What is the record in consecutive No.1 tips Foxxy?

    Ha, the only one that had Sagan.Sometimes it is good not to have all the information. I only watched this video yesterday about Sagan where he said he hardly trained since the Tour and tries to peak for the Wold Champs. I would never have picked him if I had seen it before. I also got it wrong...

    Bummer - who would have thought that Giant-Alpecin would chicken out and not put the hammer down? No GC guy really, high voltage lead out train used to rev it up over 8 km around tight corners and so on. Disappointing. On the positive - not too many teams scored at the TTT so the damage wasn't...

    Re: Nah, he isn't. He clearly must be tired by now dominating so many Tours. He will fade. :D

    I only had 29 on the long list down to 20 plus 2 reserves. And my wife thinks I spend a lot of time with this game...

    Thanks - really appreciate the effort. Don't stress out too much about it - a few more hours don't matter.

    Emerging Riders CQ Game

    Good fun to see the list of riders we didn't pick but we shouldn't feel to bad about it. I can't explain it in a good way but statistically the odds are against us as there are so many riders out there and hindsight is a beautiful thing. Or in other words, you could also easily compile a lteam...

    Ok I am finally able to thank Foxxy for another awesome game. Congrats to all who made it. Celebrations were intense after Kristoff did it for my team. Hangover followed. Slowly recovering. Looking forward to Vuelta. Seems like I have to study the additional rules but it looks interesting. We...

    Re: Thanks for working that out Foxxy. We are both hit by the only movement in T-20: Mollema passing Frank. How annoying. Still have to get over Walles luck that Thomas looses exactly 11 places to end up 15th on Stage 19. I mean what are the f....g odds? Two blows that might cost me the DC. It...
