The 2022 CQ Ranking Manager Thread

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Same when I opened on my phone, so going to retry.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

The link appears to work on my computer but not my phone.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Sorry for the inconvenience, I have no idea what is going wrong.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Vladimir shows up in both 15th and 21st in the rankings tab.

Also, don't stress over it too much, it's a steep learning curve so there being hiccups is only natural.

 

[Riverside]

yea, no worries mate, take your time

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

I’ll take a look at it tomorrow, if this link does not work.

It would seem that the access to the spreadsheet is not set as open for everyone, so it is requesting ID/dropbox account sign in,

Don't forget to prove that this was no fluke/redeem your reputation (delete as applicable) in the Giro CQ game: you have until the race starts on Friday to get in your list of 8 names.

opens fine if you download the file

delighted with my first top 5 of season,

I did a little digging, the "vladimir" team in 15th this week was 23rd last week. In last week's update, the 23rd team was the Collective Wisdom Team which for some reason linked back to vladimir's page when you tried to access the team. It should have linked back to PopTeam1 in the spreadsheet. Seems like this problem has been here a while and Jumbo Visma fan was actually the first to notice the issue and rather logically matched the team name to the linked page. Unfortunately, it should have been the other way around.

Another problem I saw was the green jersey points included points like 19 and 1, I did not fix those but certainly thanks for the support on my first write up!

On a second note some of those green jersey points could have been from ties.

What a bummer. My unique pick Tesson is firing on all cylinders in France (finally - had health problems in Feb-March if I remember correctly).
And then he gets a 40 second penalty and is out of the game for the overall. He would have had a lead of 15 seconds after today. Oh well. Maybe Saturday would've been too hard for him anyways, well see.

Still a fun pick to have for this race.

Whoops, yeah that was my mistake. I made the collective wisdom team and included it just on the rankings tab so we could track it for fun if we wanted, but it wouldn't be on the 'update tab'. This was described in some post way back at the start of the game. But to make a new team line on that sheet, I copy an existing team line and then do a find & replace command. That changes everything except the link stays on the original team line that was copied, and I forgot to change that one manually.

Anyway, I had editing access on the current update so JVF I changed it to be the proper way!

 

[skidmark]

Well, on the eve of the first Grand Tour, my team continues to be utterly middling. Who do I have to look forward to being disappointed in for the next three weeks?

Miguel Angel Lopez
Sacha Modolo
Jai Hindley
Lennard Kamna
Tom Dumoulin
Tobias Foss
Caleb Ewan
Ivan Sosa
Giulio Ciccone

There's certainly high upside there, but also high variance... Lopez has had a puzzling year, but hopefully over 3 weeks even if he has a bad day like he has in his few races this year, he'll still get a high overall. Unless he quits when he has a bad day of course. Hindley has actually probably had the best year of my team so far. Foss has done exactly one race where he looked great, then DNF'd his second race. So who knows? But he can improve on last year's 9th place in theory. Sosa seems to be peaking, but has never really performed in a GT, and Ciccone is one of the most solid GC bets for a top 10, but also GTs give 3 weeks for him to crash out. So who knows? I'm hoping I hit on all cylinders and this turns my team around, but I suspect at least a few of these guys will flame out.

 

[Riverside]

Not a huge number of riders from my suicide squad in Giro but a nice pack that is encouraging to follow each and every stage. Adding BIBs to make sure i'll follow the right rider in the peloton...

Chapeau! I just want to point out how well I picked my fantasy team for this one. Hope he wins overall with Julien Simon second

Woof!

Reminds me of my ludicrously Giro-heavy team last year. Had 7 of the top 15 going into the white roads stage, at which point the disasters started, but stlll ended up with 3 of the top 7. I think you can be pretty much guaranteed an emotional rollercoaster over the next 3 weeks

Unfortunately for you, my largely lifeless team also shares some of your riders for this race.

Ewan
Ciccone
Lopez
Dumoulin
Buchmann
Calmejane
Modolo
Rosa

 

[EvansIsTheBest]

Girmay is still awesome. The rest of the team looks far more of a mixed bag as expected. Just buying time until Evenpoel and Martinez start racing again.

 

[Salvarani]

4 Jours de Dunkerque / Grand Prix des Hauts de France
Oliver Naesen
Gerben Thijssen

For the old Naesen it would be a good oppurtunity here to even try and go for the GC. I hope he shows up. Thijssen could maybe score some points in a sprint.

Probably couldnt have gone better for me in this race. Very happy with that.

Next week Tour de Hongrie starts after the Giro goes back to its home country.

Line-up
Campbell Stewart
Carl Fredrik Hagen
Olav Kooij
Fabio Jakobsen
Matthew Walls
Max Kanter

Surely, there will be some points from the sprints here. Hopefully CFH could get a decent GC-result, unless he drops minutes on a couple of the flat stages.
