The 2012 CQ Ranking Manager Game

[CQmanager]

Paris-Nice .... to lazy to list every name but hopefully Porte, Brajkovic, Luis Leon, Menchov and T-Jey can score some GC points

Edit: Just noticed Nick Roche is also riding so add him to the mix for the overall ....

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

I have both Quintana and Poels, hopefully they end 1-2

would be nice if phinney wins prologue also

 

[Mellow Velo]

Pee poor day yesterday, only 15 points.
Lucky for me Guardini has scored another 100 points since the last update. 6 stage wins scoring more than winning the Langkawi GC. That and a clean up at Samyn should see me ok.

However, I am about to start my long fall. I have nobody for the P-N GC and only Nibali and Velits (Talansky?) at T-A.
Dennis Galimyziaov is currently an anchor around my neck.

 

[HelgeBlendet]

Well, that was a bad week for me. I hope, that P-N and T-A will be better.

P-N
Porte
Anton
Sanchez Gil
Lloyd
Lund
Maaskant
Vanmarcke

3 guys for the overall and 4 guys who will help their captains beating Porte, Anton and LLSG...

T-A
Duarte
Langeveld
Vaitkus
Oss
Vanendert
Velits
Breschel
Horner
Löfkvist
Devolder

Duarte, Vanendert, Velits, Horner and Löfkvist doesn't sound that bad.

Time to fight against the gravity pulling me down since week 2.

 

[TeoSheva]

Paris-Nice
BOONEN Tom
PORTE Richie
SANCHEZ GIL Luis Leon
RENSHAW Mark
PHINNEY Taylor
SPILAK Simon

not too many...

 

[The Hitch]

And now ****ing Larson.

Jeez, I want to get this early season over with.

Indeed it seems like he is truly readying himself for the classics and the damage to people without him's cq chances may be fatal if he can continue to improve into Gent-wevelgem and TOF

Fatal? Dont be ridiculous. You expect him to score around 1000 points?

 

[hrotha]

Come on guys. Our rosters are limited. You should be happy with yourself if every single potentially good pick was in your shortlist, even if you ended up dropping some of them.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Got 10 massive points in Murcia.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Quintana goes positive.

I'm liking Poel's form also. Hopefully he can really bring it at TA.

What worries me however, on his website calendar he is only riding gold race and not fw or lbl. hopefully he does ride these races.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

200+ points at Murcia thanks to Quintana and Poels.

Hopefully I can move up from a really crappy ranking, to a reasonably crappy ranking this week.

I've got a couple of decent shots at the GC in both PN and TA; I'm looking forward to the coming week, with respect to this game.

Actually, especially considering Menchov's crappy prologue, my PN team isn' t looking that strong...

 

[The Hitch]

Every rider with potential can be on a shortlist.

Limiting it to 33 (which add up to a certain total) is what its all about.

Its bad judgment and weakness on my part to drop Larsson and Iglynski.

 

[Havetts]

Quintana & Gesink score me some points again. Possibly some others too . Really happy with those picks .

Not if you dropped them to make room for other riders who might yet perform better (or who you simply feel like rooting for)!

I really hope I really really end up regretting not taking Gesink

 

[LaFlorecita]

Got 10 massive points in Murcia.

+ 50 for the GC.

 

[The Hitch]

Ok hopefully thats all the luck Larsson will get this season.
So ****ed off.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

186 points from my Movistar boys (Quintana and Castroviejo) this weekend.

No! Good for my CQ team, heh.

 

[skidmark]

Yeah, exactly. All the changes at the last minute on my team left out Quintana and Slagter, who will probably do well (and I will root for), but I put them out for people I think will do better, and root for more. There's more than enough room for all kinds of riders to do well... as long as mine do slightly better.

 

[AntonioRossi]

since demare has started the 3days of west vlaanderen he has become profitable!

 

[nobilis]

186 points from my Movistar boys (Quintana and Castroviejo) this weekend.

Me too. And Démare in West Flanders.

 

[taiwan]

T-A: Peter Velits, Pozzato, Farrar, Di Luca? Kreuziger, Maxim Iglinsky, Vaugrenard, Willems.

Actually, where are all my guys?

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Pretty good week for me I think, considering the small amount of races.

Guardini managed 100 points in Langkawi while Colbrelli and Pelucchi assembled roughly 30 points combined. Demare earned 139 in Le Samyn and Driedaagse van West-Vlaanderen. Kreuziger 28 points in Strade Bianche, while Quintana and Poels earned 212 points in Murcia. A shame that Van Keirsbulck had a puncture 4 km before the finish line in todays stage in DVWV, otherwise he would have finished 5th, giving me an additional 50 points.

Well, roughly 500 points - I'll take it!

On a different note, I'm going on a vacation so I won't be able to do the next update (and perhaps not the next after that one). I've asked if CQmanager wants to do it, but haven't received an answer.

If noone does it, feel free to do it!

If CQmanager declines I think the honour should go to either Mellow Velo as the current leader or ingsve as the 'patron'.

I reckon I got 480 for the week.

 

[shalgo]

About 400 for the week for me (unless I am overlooking someone); given the big point totals from others, I'm not sure whether that will keep me in the top ten.
