Round 1: Pro Cycling Manager - Results
1. Name a PCM version including the team Euskaltel - Euskadi
Two answers were very popular here. PCM 2011, my favorite PCM game, comes out on top with 7 responses. Apparently others have fond memories of the game as well. Following closely behind with 5 answers was Euskatel's last game, PCM 2013. The composition of this forum has definitely changed over the years, as no respondents named a PCM prior to 2010. It is encouraging to know that Euskatel will be back in PCM 2021 though.
Spoiler PCM 2011 7x
PCM 2013 5x
PCM 2012 3x
PCM 2010 1x
PCM 2016 1x
PCM 2021 1x
2. Name a PCM backup stat (Not Mtn, Hill, Spr, Cob, or TT)
A lot of variation in answers here, but eventually Acceleration, a stat crucial for sprinters and climbers alike, came out on top with 5 answers. Right behind was Stamina, also known as Endurance, with 4 answers, and Recovery, with 3. Of all the answers submitted, none were incorrect from an objective standpoint.
Spoiler Acceleration 5x
Stamina 4x
Recovery 3x
Flat 2x
Downhill 1x
Prologue 1x
Resistance 1x
Popularity 1x
3. Name an online PCM community that does not speak English
It's a tie at the top of the leader board in this one. Since PCM France and Le Grupetto are merged, all responses for either were counted as a response for PCM France, which got 7 responses. Tied with them at the top was PCM Focus, the current Benelux community. PCM Portugal got a couple of mentions as well, and even PCM Benelux, which will be defunct for half a decade later this year, was named.
Spoiler PCM France 7x
PCM Focus 7x
PCM Portugal 2x
PCM Benelux 1x
PCM Herediano 1x
4. Name a fake Cyanide race name
Out of all of this round's questions, this one had the most clear winner: the Supergiro di Italia, with 8 answers. It's a lot like the Giro d'Italia, except it is apparently much more super, as highlighted by it's name and it's lack of real life sponsors, which are replaced by the far superior Cyanide sponsors. The Rhonda a España, another Cyanide GT, got 3 mentions, but it hasn't been as many PCM editions and thus didn't gain the traction of its Italian counterpart. Other than those, only the Protour du Benelux got more than one answers, though two different Cyanide replacements for the Amstel Gold Race were submitted as well.
Spoiler Supergiro di Italia 8x
Rhonda a España 3x
Protour du Benelux 2x
Amstil Gold Race 1x
Maastricht - Valkenburg 1x
Cyanide Cup 1x
World Championships 1x
Cya World Tour 1x
5. Name a classic PCM bug
Cyanide really shouldn't be happy with the amount of variation that is possible for this question, but it continues. When AI itself is classified as a bug year after year, there's an issue. The NC Bug of breakaways winning every time won out with 4 mentions, followed by the Team Time Trial Bug of the game play just being crap, with 3. No other answers had more than 2 participants in common. Although I wouldn't really call Cyanide's fake names a bug per say, they might be the most classic of the list.
Spoiler NC Bug 4x
Team Time Trial bug 3x
Sprint Bug 2x
Loading Crashes 2x
Cobbled ITT Crash 1x
Online Multiplayer Offline 1x
Pink Squares 1x
Riding through Cars 1x
Save Game Loss 1x
AI Zabels 1x
Fake Names 1x
Results
It's a perfect round of 31 points for emre99, with matt17br and purepasd on the podium. That being said, most people are still in contention, and nobody, including jandal7, got the minimum of 5 points.

Excellent round, didn't expect people to prefer Acceleration to Stamina but kinda makes sense in hindsight considering how dominant it's being in the last editions 
PCM 13 and PCM 11 for Euskaltel kinda weird too in all fairness, why do not people just go the easy way and pick the last version they were in?
Gratz emre.

I thought about going for PCM 13 regarding Euskatel, but PCM 11 is spoken about in hushed tones in these parts. I must admit, I thought for a long time that Supergiro di Italia was the Giro's full name. Evidently not.
Well done emre.

"World Championships" is a fake name because they don't include enough teams to but a world championship
PCM 2021 is correct because someone will add it to the db
PCM Herediano is [url=pcmherediano.weebly.com]correct[/url]

15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"

World Championships is not a fake name. Perhaps misused, but not fake.
If they are not included in the game, it doesn't count. They have to be included in the game itself at release.
And if I search the name of the site word for word and it isn't coming up, there's a problem.
Regardless, the correctness of answers does not matter. We've been over this before.

Good round  Thought everyone would've picked PCM 13 and NC getting the most picks despite me saying it
I always thought SuperGiro d'Italia was some weird full name that nobody ever used except PCM, and even if it was fake, Rhonda a Espana would be more memorable
Thanks BBL and congrats emre!

Bad round, didn't have much familiarity with anything which will probably ruin any chances I had for this whole "season"

Well crap, that's definitely not something I want. Maybe I could change the questions still. This category was recommended and I had no other ideas coming to me so I went with it. I figured it would be at least somewhat applicable since this is an internet forum.
If anybody has trouble, here's a site that can help, otherwise I'll just change the questions while it's early.
