theyve put a list up of stages with all the intermediates and feed zones etc marked
http://www.velogames.com/tdf10stage.php

10pts for any rider in a breakaway when it gets to the feedzone.. hmmm...

maybe people can put their team in their signature or something. Im confused already. You wouldnt have thought it would be that complicated to put forum names as name (i have an excuse, i was already registered as me)

that would have been smart, I thought my username would be my team name, then i became so engrossed in picking my team, I forgot to put in the right name. On the plus side, there are some funny names on that list!

Brown Paper Bags that's me.

That's how you win a Tour, by handing the UCI brown paper bags.

...people could just re-enter their team with the appropriate name.

Great idea. I'd like to be able to instantly recognize who's winning and not have to scroll up the thread to find a post listing who is who.

Too bad you can't choose Pat McQuaid as the wildcard, he is able to affect the standings more than most riders.

Do we enter our CN forum name where it asks for "your name" or "your team name?"

your name = forum name
team name = whatever silly team name youve come up with

I reckon as theres been such interest and enthusiasm Susan should wangle a prize, its been ages since we had a good prize

the idea is that your team is at the top so the rest doesnt matter

ive redone my team with my nickname instead of my real name

I joined as No Sleep 'til Paris

It will be interesting to see how the cyclingnews forum does compared to the all the other entries... Maybe we will all be at the top... and by we I mean everyone else from the forum

scoring system is here> http://www.velogames.com/tdfscores.php

best points are on daily stage finishes, not so much gc focused, but then the final gc standings are worth a bunch of points. Then again, if a rider gets in a breakaway and can stay out over three climbs he can pick up a fair few points as well..

Ya, I already saw the points system but it's hard to know how things actually play out in practice. Having already used the system for the Giro would have been a good experience I see.

I joined as Huff n' Puffn Bloodpack Stuffn.

Now...back to lurking.

 

[Straßenrennen]

Two of my changes were just changes to the team name. The others were minor tweaks. I have to make sure I do better than 95 out of 100.

 

[Sydney Sider]

[auscyclefan94]
