Is there anyway we can do some late season transfers?
There are several trades that I could make. For instance I could give you Flamin for Tigerion....could we work out a deal? 😛 🙂

Yeah, in the off-season we´ll do some behind-the-curtain-deals. 😉

The final pick to D;
... movingtarget (8.0)

 

[FoxxyBrown1111]

That concluded the least viewed live event in the history of draws. 😉

Later I´ll do the promised summary. I guess Anquetil will be the division with the most inherited points, thus the toughest to survive... Let´s see.

 

[FoxxyBrown1111]

I am surprised the draw took that long. 67 mins to be precise. I blame that to the commercial breaks. 😉

Here are the new divisions (also updated in post #1 & in the linked google.docs):

In parentheses; Inherited points from the first two rounds

Division Anquetil;
asdfgh101 (8.5)
FoxxyBrown1111 (9.0)
Geraint Too Fast (9.0)
ILovecycling (9.5)
Poursuivant (8.0)
Pricey_sky (8.5)
Tigerion (7.5)
Vino attacks everyone (9.0)
vladimir (8.5)

Division Bartali;
Afrank (9.0)
al_pacino (8.5)
Flamin (9.0)
greenedge (7.5)
jaylew (8.0)
Jspear (9.0)
Mellow Velo (8.5)
Ruudz0r (9.0)
Wallenquist (8.5)

Division Coppi;
18-Valve. (pithy) (10.5)
aarnold517 (8.5)
diggercuz (8.5)
Ferminal (8.0)
Hugo87 (10.0)
l.Harm (8.0)
LosBrolin (7.5)
mutschi (8.0)
oliveira (8.0)

Division Defraeye;
Arredondo (8.0)
BYOP88 (9.0)
Jorik112 (8.0)
kiilike (8.5)
mortand (8.5)
movingtarget (8.0)
search (8.5)
The Hitch (8.0)
the sceptic (10.5)

The draw pretty much evened out the strength in the divisions. My first feeling was Anquetil to be super strong, but the numbers say different things:
"Inherited points" per Division;
A - 77.5
B - 77.0
C - 77.0 (only, besides having 2 of 3 "set"-players with 10 or more IPs)
D - 77.0

Thanks Foxxy, not sure if Anquetil is the group of death, but I have every intention of scoring big in the Giro next year😀

... it is...
no, no, it is ... ILovecycling (9.5)

yeaaaaah, /:dancin on the table:/, yeaaaahhhhhh !!!😀

😀
btw I wanted to B first,but anquetil was my 2nd choice 😛

 

[ILovecycling]

btw I wanted to be there for 'live broadcast' but couldnt make it, still I was nervous in reading it age by page because I was in a last 4, great posts foxxy 🙂

Round 6: To A;
Tigerion (7.5)... ok, Tigerion you got a tough division. Good luck. 😀

hillarious post foxxy😀


I see hugo and valve in Coppi have a huge buffer on their opponents,there are no 9-pointers iirc, they have 2-3 points lead 😱

 

[Pricey_sky]

Thanks for the draw Foxxy, group A looks very tough!

More pressure to both, we can't fail now. 😀

No it´s not. It was my 1st feeling with all the tough draws coming in, but our division only "lead" the other divisions by 0.5 inherited points. That is negligible...

yeaaaaah, /:dancin on the table:/, yeaaaahhhhhh !!!

Looking forward the battle of the champions (ok you wasn´t, but almost 😉)

Cool. One of the few who sifted trou... 😀

Yeah, this group got more "easy" draws. That´s why that whole division has "only" 77.0 innherited points whilst fielding two of the best three players... But I see it coming: Either Hugo or Valve busts and fight against elimination until the last stage. You heard it first here. 😎

Thanks for the draw Foxxy, group A looks very tough!

Thanks... Looking forward the Giro. Our division will be up for grabs. No one is safe.
