Guess Who - Game

[DJ Sprtsch]

Re:

Last attempt Dario Frigo?

yes yes, it's Frigo!!!

 

[RedheadDane]

Female?
Retired?

(Just kinda funny how you posted it all in seperate posts.)

 

[Echoes]

It's because they were instant guesses, so I was in before somebody found them out, lol.

But I realise that my method was not really fair. I'm sorry about it I suggest we all have the right a certain amount of names and questions. Consider this suggestion.

Lopeboselli is one that I skipped straight out because he could not in anyway have top10ed several times a major classics. I remember that edition of the Tour of Lombardy. He was a massive surprise, lol.

You are indeed looking for an active male.

 

[RedheadDane]

WT?
European?

(Guessing them all in the same post would have given the same result.)

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Road specialist?
CX specialist?
Over 30?
Under 23?

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

PCT?
CT?

 

[Echoes]

PCT? > No
CT? > No

Road specialist? > Not at all
CX specialist? > Kinda
Over 30? > No
Under 23? > No

WT? > No
European? > Yes

(Guessing them all in the same post would have given the same result.) > When I have an answer in mind I don't have another one. There are about a 5' gap between each post. Besides, I have a pretty poor Internet at the moment. So I have to hurry before my connection breaks (incl. for the present post).

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Be? Ne? Lux?

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

Larre (Lars) van der Haar

 

[Echoes]

He's Dutch but it's not Lars.

I didn't know that Larre was a nickname for Lars. Wuyts always calls him the Jack Russell.

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

The speaker called him Larre once, my bro and I liked it. It's a west-flemish thing
Did he ever podium a CX NC?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Michiel van der Heijden

 

[Echoes]

Jeeez, I knew it would have been my easiest one but so quick. Well done, Libs, Michiel, that is.

That way, we have the two suggested riders on the same picture.

Lol, you, West Flemings and your dialect(s).

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

active?
European?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Yes
No
Yes

 

[rote_laterne]

Did he ever win a GT?
Did he retire 2005-2009?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

[RedheadDane]

Did he retire voluntarily? (as in no outside influence)
Did he retire after 2009?

 

[Cannibal72]

Did he retire before 2000?

More seriously, I go for Jose-Manuel Fuente (knowing Libertine)

 

[RedheadDane]

Well... that would be overdoing it when it comes to guessing names.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

He retired voluntarily.
It was not after 2009.
It was not before 2000 (and by proxy not before any of those other earlier dates).
He did not win the Giro.
He is on Echoes' list somewhere, sort of, but he is not the mighty El Tarangu.

Edit: it's not him (obviously as I've stated they're on Echoes' list and given some of the facts above) but amazed that Lucien van Impe isn't mentioned, since Echoes surely knows I love me some pure climbers, and Lucien was one of the best...

 

[Cannibal72]

Did he ever win the Tour?
Ever win a monument?
Melchior Mauri?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

It's Melcior, arguably the most left-field GT winner of all time (the giveaway was that I said he's on the list "sort of", since Echoes reflected the common mis-spelling of his name according to Castilian norms).

 

[Cannibal72]

Okay, I've got someone.
