Tour de France (budget)

[johngoat]

Dear all,

I'm searching several years for an ineresting TdF game. Not an easy game where you just have to fill in 15 names but a more difficult game where a budget is involved. Every participant must 'buy' 10 or 15 cyclist for a determined amount of money.

Does anyone know a certain game (link)?

Best regards,

Johngoat

Wow, this game looks great. To bad I can't participate. Anyone else has another suggestion?

Versus ran a fantasy challenge the past few years. You had a budget and had to pick so many riders. There were daily prises and a grand prize. Not sure if they are running it this year. I've done quite well in the past.

SBS have run one here in australia the last 2 years:

will probably do so again this year, like fantasy football you pick a team making sure the total salaries fit within a budget, then throughout the race you earn points for stage wins, placings.

and you get a certain amount of trades you can execute during the race to swap out sprinters for climbers, etc etc etc.

edit: and as far as i know the last 2 years competitions haven't been territory restricted

Teamtoto should be fine for you.
But it's in German, but shouldn't be a problem. You need to understand the simple rules and scoreboard - thats all and rest is selfexploring.
If you have any questions about the rules if translation tools just put out crap, just ask.

If there are more people interested then I am willing to translate the rules.
