3. 70 is the minimum average
4. If you are doing this because you do not like the game, it actually helps to have some bad riders in there. (it adds some strategy in picking bad riders, but then somebody can make last the losing position)
5. If you are doing it because it no longer has a flaw, then thank you. /quote]
They all have more than 69 AVG if you use an editor (69.01+). Saying 70+, or 70 or higher would be much clearer
I take it there is no rush on jerseys considering all that needs to be done. I'd need to make one from scratch and that takes bit of time.
Added nationality.

I'm posting a lot here but
Anyway, Sam1. your team is good and you may get in later.
I just wanted to state something,
when you select your 9 riders, if a team before you has selected one of them, but their team hasn't been selected, for example, if Javibozada picked Bradley Wiggins but hadn't been selected into the game yet (so Bradley Wiggins isn't a confirmed rider yet) and Sam1 wanted to make sure Wiggins was in the game, he could select like this:
Riders: Simon Yates
Adam Yates
Caleb Ewan
Joe Dombrovski
Luke Durbridge
Sebastian Henao
Luca Mezgec
John Degenkolb
Bradley Wiggins
Emergency:
Fabian Cancellara
Now, if Javibozada pulls out or doesn't get in (not saying that this will happen), Bradley Wiggins will still get in, but if he does get in, then Fabian Cancellara and Wiggins will both get in.
That's just a hypothetical situation, but of course, you only have select emergencies if you want to make sure that a rider gets in the game,
and remember they can only replace riders that are not confirmed as riders already (you can't pick riders on the list of confirmed riders).
EDIT:
I just read the last two posts so:
@TMM
Ok, I changed it to only 70+ riders, so please select some of them, also you are right, there is no rush for a jersey, so take your time.
@PeterRyder
Your team is pretty good, but you may want to remove Viekkanen (my favourite cyclist ) as he is 69, just under. You might also want to select an emergency for Cancellara, as Sam1 selected him, so if he gets in (Which is likely), you will need to select another rider.

ok, that's good. thanks
(Even I'm annoyed that Veikkanan can't be in it, but when you start making exceptions then people get a bit annoyed and it doesn't really work)

Sorry, can pcm13 jerseys be used in pcm14?

Your team is pretty good, Grivko can replace Craven, because Craven is only 68 avg. Also, Fischer is on a different team's list and I can't find Mugerli (what team is he on) in the database, so unless I've missed him, could you give me another emergency, so that if Peteryder gets in, then this will still have 9 riders.
Apart from that you're good.
Also, I added a new (very minor) rule in the auction section, quoting myself:

As well as the riders who have been dropped from a team, I may pick a rider who is either not on a team or is out of the game and also put him up for auction one round, he may even be the blind auction.

Mugerli is on the Adria Mobil team, and yes, you can use pcm 13 shirts for 14

May sound like a stupid question, but will we know who the blind auction is for?

Thanks matt and trekbmc. Let me know if you need any help, but unfortunately I don't have PCM 14 so I'm not sure what else you might need

@cycleman123
Yes, it will be announced along with the other auctions.
@Ozrocker
thanks a lot, I'm not sure what I need now but I'll tell you if something comes up.
@Mars
Thanks for your entry, I haven't updated the post (I will tonight), but you need a nationality, if all your riders are over 70 avg (I'll check later), then it's legal, because none of them are on other teams.
Thanks.

ok, I've added all the teams, we've got 11 now, so the game is definitely on with 7 spots left for the maximum. All the riders that are in at the moment are confirmed, apart from TMM's, who I won't put in the databse until tonight (so I can confirm the riders are 70 av) but I will confirm the team.
Thanks guys,
and anybody else is welcome to join.

Thanks a lot.
I will put them on the list this afternoon (Australian time), because I've got to get ready for school now.
