The 2013 CQ Ranking Manager Game

[Tigerion]

So Weening is out of the GC race, there goes any change I had of GC points. Was hopign for maybe a low top 10 for him.

I guess I need to rely on Goss to clean up in the sprints

 

[al_pacino]

36 points from Barguil in a race I thought I did not even have a rider competing in, is a good surprise

Passed me by too.

Picardie was reasonably kind with Coquard and Maxime Daniel getting into profit.

[EvansIsTheBest]

As this year isn't going all too well for me, I decided to look at the aggregate ranking instead Here is the top 10 (player _ n° of points _ rank this year) :
skidmark _______ 34167 _ 88th
mc_mountain ___ 33734 _ 22th
The Hitch _______ 33257 _ 8th
Armchair Cyclist _ 33098 _ 71th
ingsve _________ 32520 _24th
MADRAZO _____ 32038 _ 69th
EvansIsTheBest _ 31951 _ 39th
theyoungest _____ 31716 _ 56th
bicing __________ 31053 _ 17th
Except the Hitch (but with his three most expensive picks being Cancellara, Gilbert and Pozzato he might struggle relatively during the rest of the season), none of us are having a stellar season so far.

Then you should take a look at my team

 

[LaFlorecita]

lol I am doing horrible.. but on the bright side two giro stage wins and a 2nd place

 

[Tigerion]

Kittel saved my week.

Mine too. 166 points is a nice little surprise
Plus a few more for barguil and Van Marcke help as well.

Certainly not getting anything from WT so maybe Meyer can get a good result in Cali and I might hold

 

[EvansIsTheBest]

A whooping 2 points from Roux today while Cavendish owners continue to rack up the points. Both are turning out to be very good picks. Shame I have only one of the two.

 

[taiwan]

Nice, my guys are performing today at ToC.

 

[Ferminal]

Roux will need to get back to the ****ty races if he's a chance of scoring big.

 

[LaFlorecita]

60 points in Cali thanks to Tyler + some for bling and thor I think

 

[taiwan]

_o_

NIEMIEC Przemyslaw

That is all.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Meyer, Mollema earning me some points....

I expected more from Matthews and Morton though

Why does this post only feature riders whose name starts with an m?

Well Meyer lost a few positions in the last mountain stage but that the result will still make my ToC better than my Giro
A scattering of other points in there as well

Not much happenening this week with only one team scoring over 400 points. Indeed, with points from Van Garderen, Meyer and Cavendish coinneach scores 484 points and moves up an astonishing 36 places. Geraint Too Fast reduces his deficit to will10 by two thirds and with Evans looking strong in Italy, he seems poised to take over the first spot. The main event of the week however is that Schleck finally managed to score more than finisher points
For the rest, they must wait for the the big points of the Giro GC to see their team shine.

 

[element]

Thanks for that! Glad I have Betancur, hoping Henao can spring back to life for the last week of the Giro. Where are you getting the info? Is the spreadsheet accessible anywhere?

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Thanks for the update EvansIsTheBest, and thanks for the points Cav.

 

[EvansIsTheBest]

Thanks for that! Glad I have Betancur, hoping Henao can spring back to life for the last week of the Giro. Where are you getting the info? Is the spreadsheet accessible anywhere?

I'm getting my info from cqranking.com
More seriously, I don't think this week's spreadsheet is available anywhere. I updated the spreadsheet myself using an old version (there's plenty lying around in the thread). Download the last two update available at cqranking, copy paste the sheet of the "Year ranking" (but first delete the first lines up to (but not including) the line with Rank Prev. UCIcode etc.) of the last update over the "2011 results" sheet of your old version of the spreadsheet then do the same with the "Year Ranking" of the before last update into "Last week". You then have a fully updated spreadsheet.
Hope I was clear enough (if not I'll upload the spreadsheet tomorrow)

Here is where your points came from :
BETANCUR GOMEZ Carlos Alberto 105
DUARTE AREVALO Fabio Andres 10
DENNIS Rohan 15
JUNGELS Bob 5
HUSHOVD Thor 10
BTW you have a nice team, perhaps a little sprinter-heavy but it seems to work out fine for the moment.

 

[element]

Thanks, will give that a try! Still a bit of a newbie at this game, but nice to be up there for the meantime!

 

[HelgeBlendet]

Slowly starting to slip out of the top10. My team's not made for GT's...
