The 2012 CQ Ranking Manager Game

[The Hitch]

Highest shown on CQ downloads is 3498.
.

Could be because at the time.Gilbert got that high score.contador had not yet been stripped of his results so Gilbert had a 5th on.muur de bretagne - now a 4th and moved up in maybe 1 or 2 other results lists from that tour meaning the score is now 3510even if when actually recorded it was lower.

Highest shown on CQ downloads is 3498.

IF (and it's a big if) Wiggo won Dauphine again and Le Tour, he'd have a pretty massive score as he'd have all his early season '12 points plus Vuelta plus Worlds '11.

Plus a good Olympic ITT performance.

Update 21: TeoSheva still leads after the Giro

With the first Grand Tour of the year done we've reached a milestone. Will it also be an indicator of how the final standings will turn out? It might but - nothing has been decided yet.

Not surprisingly a lot of points have been earned this week and that means a that lot of positions have been swapped on the leaderboard. In the top 10 almost the only thing that hasn't changed is the name of the leader. TeoSheva is still on top, leading by 339 points while his nearest competitor is now Nyssinator who moves up from 6th to 2nd place mainly because of De Gendt and Rogers.
Three new teams are to be found in the top 10 this week: Kazistuta, The Hitch and Armchair cyclist. All three had some good weeks with Armchair also being one of this weeks highest earners - that's what happens when a certain Canadian wins the Giro. Out of the top 10 goes Netserk, ansimi and theyoungest.

Top 10

1. (1) TeoSheva - 9338
2. (6) Nyssinator - 8999
3. (3) skidmark - 8976
4. (2) EvansIsTheBest - 8824
5. (15) Armchair cyclist - 8791
6. (5) Kvinto - 8715
7. (4) Mellow Velo - 8554
8. (14) The Hitch - 8454
9. (8) lancaster - 8407
10. (12) Kazistuta - 8399

Armchair cyclist was already mentioned as one of big scorers this week but he's overdone by two teams: Ruby United and flyers. With both Basso and Hesjedal in his team, it's not that surprising that Ruby United claims the title as this weeks top scorer.

This weeks high scorers

1. Ruby United - 1452
2. flyers - 1398
3. Armchair cyclist - 1382
4. bicinb - 1248
5. King Of The Worlds - 1242

Quite amazingly, while Ruby United is still only in 110th place overall, his great week didn't earn him a spot among this weeks high jumpers as he "only" moved up 11 places. flyers, coming close to winning this week top scorer award, wins this weeks high jumper award as he moved 26 places and is now to be found in 38th place.

This weeks high jumpers

1. flyers +26
2. bicing +24
3. cineteq +19
3. trotters aotearoa +19
5. just some guy +15
5. taiwan +15
5. AAC1983 +15

How long will it take before someone overtakes TeoSheva's first place - if ever?

Brilliant weeks!

Must admit that I wanted to be in the top 100 by the end of the giro.

Anyway, this is just the beggining of my comeback.

 

[vladimir]

Thanks again Hugo for your fantastic effort!
One small error discovered in my team. Miguel Minguez has got no points both for this week and for the year. Doesn't reaaly help me that much but every point counts

Thanks for the kind words and for noticing me. I've corrected it now so the points will appear in the next update

 

[CQmanager]

Some new features added for all those that are showing so much appreciation by complaining about this and that ....

[TeoSheva]

I didn't have any name for the GC at the Giro, but I was still able to keep the top.. that's a good sign... but for the Tour I need some points from the GC too (Hope in Horner, Vanendert, Velits...)


Tour de Luxembourg
LUDVIGSSON Tobias
VALLS FERRI Rafael

ok, I don't think a will score more than 10 points here

 

[CQmanager]

Ryder and Mick plus a hand full of others so a good week

Ryder into profit which is nice.

1st Teo I like the excel sheet because it gives more than the overall score, the overall score is only fun when you are leading.

I want the riders profit and loss, how many places I went up and or down.

2nd CQmanager I will ask again why do I need a password to see my score there is no reason.

3rd Hugo No stress from me re time I understand you run a great simple game

can someone who can I would but I have no idea do a download for last week before the scores change for this week, thanks

The profit and loss was always available so I'm not sure what you are complaining about. Perhaps you not just lazy to log in but also lazy to look around the website.

The Up/Down was added so you dont have to bother downloading the excel file. http://game.cqmanager.net/game-standings.cfm

Password restriction for the ranking page was temporarily removed but will be added for security reasons.

As I said before, you dont need password for the download page so if you are lazy to log in just wait for the excel ...

I think it's impossible for Rujano to break even after his Giro fail. For my other riders it can't be a problem, I hope.

why do I need a pass word answer the question ?

what security reasons ?

this has got nothing to do with being lazy - why do I need a password - security reasons ????????

you have decided to create the website off your own back - great but why complain about people being lazy for not wanting a password, the game is brilliant and simple.

there is no good reason for a password requirement - and security reasons

what are we having green, yellow and red alerts now.

velonation may invade at any minute

edit : how could I look around if I needed a password ??

it looks very complete good work - but you did this off your own back.

give me 1 good reason why I need a password and I will get one and no security reasons do not cut it unless you explain what those security reasons are.

keep the website password free plan and simple

 

[Nyssinator]

Brilliant week for me. Didn't expect to jump all the way to second!

Gonna be hard to defend this position in the Tour, though. I don't think I have any GC riders for the tour, but hopefully Degenkolb can score me some sweet awesome points!

You don't need a password to access the Excel updates, which contain all the information you want and all the information that was ever released when no website existed.

Yeah, agree. I don't quite get it either

 

[Gotland]

Hey!

I have a suggestion about the site. I think it is awsome and get better and better every week. Very good work Hugo Koblet and CQmanager.

I would like to have a marathon table. There 2011 years score and 2012 years score and future years results adds up togheter. Hope you understand my poor english =)

The marathon table would be great of it also could be sorted by a average cq points/year so the ones that start late also has a chance too shine in the marathon ranking.

 

[just some guy]

Yeah, agree. I don't quite get it either

for awhile you were busy there was no download

I went to the site - I needed a password

I have no issues and think the website is good what I saw today - but for the last weeks I needed a password.

my point is why ?

CQmanager was calling people lazy for not getting a password - I just do not see the reason for a password.

also I would need a password to play the TDF game - whats the point.

Well, the point of getting a password for the TdF game is that you're then able to log in and create a team

A similar idea I had was that, for people playing year after year, your budget is your score from the previous year. Maybe you would start with a smaller budget and have to build your team up from conti riders to WT over a number of years. That's maybe a seperate game though.

 

[Jakob747]

You know your team sucks, when you're already looking forward to next season in freaking May.

I guess no matter how much I wish it was different, there is no way to totally ignore bargains and focus solely on a pure talent-squad. It simply won't add up. Back to the drawing board!

Thanks again for an awesome game!

There is many reasons for that. I understand that it may not be clear why that is because our game is pretty simple right? As others have already pointed out, you need to be able to log in to your own account to select and edit your teams for new and upcoming games.

Even though that I didnt want to talk about it now but since we are already talking about this lets just say that in the future (in addition to our regular games) we may have some private games or games that must be (for technical reasons) limited to small number of players.

Because of that we must have control over the content and make sure that each user/player has only access to pages he is allowed to see.

But no worries, this game is not changing and everything will stay the same and the download page will always have no password restrictions.

The GREEN TEAM ... this time I couldnt just select the top 33 "green" riders as the cost would be over the limit so I added a condition that every green rider must have at least 15% points gain over last year.

I've got 9 riders from the Green Team. I considered 17 of them though

 

[Panda Claws]

8 here. Still I consider my continuous top 40 spot to be pretty good.

 

[The Hitch]

hooray, back in the top 10 where i spent most of last season
