In other news, it's time for the Season awards. These are the categories you can vote, give your top 5 for all of them, please. In 3 days, I will give the final 3 our of which you can choose.
1) Best Rider
2) Best Team
3) Best HQ
4) Best Manager
5) Best EPIC rider
6) Best reporter
PS: 2) is for the best results and manager tactical decisions, 3) is for the best looking HQ, 4) combines these two aspects.
PPS: EPIC riders also qualify for 1), you can vote for your own riders but please be objective
Voting via PM, voting will be open when I publish the Rankings tomorrow, so I don't have people changing their votes because of that
And with the rankings published, voting is open
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

This is tough
1) Best Rider: Peter Sagan ahead of Froomey (too one sided competition unfortunately )
2) Best Team: SKY, duh ahead of Movistar
3) Best HQ: Euskaltel - Euskadi ahead of Champion System
4) Best Manager: Uhm, this is very, very tough to choose from, especially since we are missing a transfer season. However, great job all around people. Go for Ollfardh in the end because good results, good HQ and good use of riders (incl EPIC youngsters).
5) Best EPIC rider: Jordan Birtles (those TdF posts ) ahead of Birt, kakhi and Hanzen
6) Best reporter: SSJ2Luigi - say whaat? Ahead of The Rider
Best win: Mitchell Birt double feature at Vuelta.
Best race this season: Ronde van Vlaanderen because of GVA winning it

Uhm, I'm obviously tired from writing and reading all those HQ posts. I'll send it in via PM. Sorry.

Will you publish the natural de/progression before the real transfer period starts, so you know what stats the rider your bidding on will be ?

I think in all the excitement of the transfer season, we forgot to mention the winner of the first season of EPIC. Congratulation jaxika and Team Sky for winning the team ranking!
Now, for the awards. There's a clear pattern, so we now go to the final vote. I just need 1 name in each category. Here are the nominees (in alphabetic order):
1) Best Rider
1) Chris Froome - Tour and Vuelta double, 2nd overall
2) Philippe Gilbert - Eneco and Lombardia, 7th overall
3) Vincenzo Nibali - Giro'Italia winner, 3rd overall
4) Peter Sagan - Gent-Wevelgem, Fleche Wallonne, Liege-Bastogne-Liege, 1st overall
2) Best Team
1) Belkin - Got a surprising 3rd place as a mediocre team
2) Europcar - Got to promotion in a very comfortable way
3) Movistar - Second only to Sky, and had quite some bad luck in the Giro and Tour
4) Sky - Won the game with quite a margin
3) Best HQ
1) Belkin - https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....d_id=31694
2) Champion System - https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....owstart=20
3) Euskaltel - https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....d_id=31696
4) NetApp - https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....owstart=40
4) Best Manager
1) Atlantius - Restoring the Basque heritage
2) Brewers90 - Motivation through Aggression
3) Ollfardh - What does conflict of interest mean?
4) SSJ2Luigi - Mr. Car is riding solo
5) Best EPIC rider
1) Willem Brouwer - Giro stage win and maglia rosa for a day, won GC Tour de Gabon, Clasica Almeria and Tour de Vendee, highest EPIC rider on the rankings
2) Adrian Hanzen - First rider to lead a GT, highest number of wins, including a stage in Beijing, 4th in U23 WC, second highest on the rankings
3) Rajesh Kakhi - Top 10 San Sebastian, Podium GC and U25 jerseys in Dunkerque and Wallonie, Podium Gran Piemonte
4) Po-ding Kim - Aufrasian Continental Champion Time Trial, World Champion Time Trial U23, won TT and GC Algarve and Bayern, third highest on the rankings
6) Best reporter
Note from the author: A big thank you to Atlantius for putting Stromeon on nr. 1, otherwise everyone would've had the same name as nr. 1. After that, it was really close, so we have 8 final nominees, including 2 who already left the game
1) Atlantius
2) Jesleyh
3) Selwink
4) Sgdanny
5) Shonak
6) Silvio Herklotz
7) SSJ2Luigi
8) The Rider
The voting is open to all. So just 1 name in each category. Also, since I already gave you points, don't feel obligated to vote for me, I can't punish you anymore. Or can I..

I protest for Luigi being nominated for best manager, given I dragged him just as much as I did in first survivor
Nah nice to see him up there and nice to see my name up there somehow
Also very odd to see that 5 of 8 nominees for reporters have a nickname starting with S. Just me.

Personally I didn't think it lacked structure and layout.
Structure means how it is set up, basically layout.
