Yeah

My team I did pre-competition is a bit different than others. We'll see if it pays off.

I'm not going to do google docs. Too sophisticated for me. I'll just post people's final teams in this thread.

Is it too late for me to join?

Posted here yesterday, but somehow it seems my post was deleted when the mods made the new sub-forum :(

I have updated the list with the entries - the full ones.

PLEASE - Follow the format I laid out. I have had to type out a few entries because the format wasn't followed. If you do the format, i can just copy and paste it in and you also won't forget your jokers.

I'm not checking my PM's till after the closing time. If you have forgotten your jokers you won't have any in the game.

The guys I have replied to have time to get their jokers in even if it's after the start time but the PM's i receive from now on without a joker will either be rejected or accepted into the game without the jokers. If you send in your entry and it's incomplete it will stay that way.

Please just follow the template.

C´mon man.... The best should win, not those who read the best. ;)
I know it´s a little bit stress before the game, but give everybody the same chances. Accept minor changes and completing lists. I understand the deadline, but until then corrections should be allowed. Thanks :)

You could still do it. It took me "only" 3 hours to tip 1.353 names. I know you only have to put 420.

Thanks again. Great work. :)

the only one I saw finishing was pettachi.

I felt there were a couple guys essential to have, as they are likely to get points in overall classifications.

But Petacchi was the only one who clearly announced really early, that he will stop after stage 12. :D

Kreuziger = a must have in the 9 imo.

Should take the youth classification, and thus an easy 50 points. Even if he comes 2nd or 3rd it is still valuable points.

Yep

That's why I went with 4 youth in my final 9. Hope to have 4 of them in the top 6-8 or so.

And yes you do get points today if your rider is leading a classification.

This wasn't the way I understood the rules and it was no thought while playing tactics, but its good anyway and picking Pinotti was finally a good choice. :D

Anyone who has Petacchi and Cavendish has got off to a great start with Petacchi leading the points and Cavendish leading the pink and those two finishing 1 and 2 on the stage.

Foxxybrown had both and had this as a joker stage. Should clean up!

Ah, he attacked too early.

We will catch and outsprint him. He is just held on the long line.

Attacking early is always good. For example NFL-Games; If you lead after one Quarter, you win 70% of the games. Or take Armstrong: He always attacked early (first Mountain-Stage) and then sitting on the lead ;)

I am still in the run for the triple (Prediction-Game, Grand-Game, Manager-Game). Everything looks good :)

Anyway, where are the Standings? I should have a small lead over the others picking Stage 2 as joker.

I calculated 202 points (!!!) for my team. Is that correct??
