    The 2018 CQ Ranking Manager Thread

    How did you do this, Ferminal? I'd love to do the same, but instead of counting riders I'd like to count common points (e.g. '1 rider of 1000pts in common' is more similar than '2 riders of 100pts in common')

    The 2018 CQ Ranking Manager Thread

    After seeing the first few teams, I'm already happy I don't seem to have forgotten an obvious pick this time! As always, not only excited about this team from a game-POV, but also from a cheering-POV. Curious to see the spreadsheet and analysis. QUINTANA ROJAS Nairo Alexander LOPEZ MORENO...

    The 2018 CQ Ranking Manager Thread

    Whoa, after all these consistent games with nearly daily updates, almost singlehandedly by you the last few years. I've found my way to VR and will continue to follow there, I for one am very grateful for all the work you put into this to ensure a cool game for dozens of us.
