Here we go again.
If you have played before, then the reminders you will need are 8 riders, 4000 CQ point budget, team selection spreadsheet here, prices fixed as of Monday 30 June, PM to me by the start of stage 1 at 13:40 (I believe, French time) on Saturday 5th July.
If that means nothing to you, then let me explain further:
Your goal is to get as many points as you can (according to the system at CQranking.com : points available for all finishers according to their GC position, top 10 in each stage and on points and mountains classifications, and for the overnight leader: column G1 in the first two tables here) during the Tour. But you must choose 8 men who are taking part in the Tour, and each rider has a price which is their CQ score for the 12 months to 29th June (a download from CQ will confirm and lock in those prices on the 30th). That means that while you can of course think about your selection before that date, you shouldn't be sure that you can send it until then. You have a budget of 4000 of such points.
During the race, I will post daily updates of scores at that point, as though that were the final result of the race, and in a minor classification, which tracks only stage points.
When it is time to submit, please use PM on this site to me There is no need to include teams or prices: they simply need to be deleted before I can enter them into the spreadsheet. And you make life much easier if you can use the same version of names as used on the CQ site (Danish, Eritrean, Portuguese and Spanish language names might require particular attention). Your team should be sent in before stage 1 starts on Saturday 5th July at 13:40 local (French) time. If you send your team in in good time, then I can check it and let you know if there is a problem: I do have a rather convoluted way of replacing ineligible picks: I'll post it if necessary.
Riders who are due to compete, their CQ names, and their prices (remember, only reliable from the 11th), as well as the scale of points available to be won, are on a Dropbox spreadsheet here
Good luck to all.
