I have decided to do a story on The Shack, they are one of my favorite teams and I am looking forward to playing with a team that has so many leaders. This is my first story, so any advice would be helpful. I have one question before I get started: How do I export results, start lists, etc...?

I wish I knew how to do it, but I don't have a story. But I'm a big Radioshack fan, so your story has its first fan. |

When you are in a race press space and youwill see the startlists, well press export in the bottom right corner of the startlists.
Results page press the export button
then go to User/Docs/PCM and they will be in there (not sure of exact folder in the PCM but its in there) |

To export start lists, just click spacebar during the race, then click export, export start lists in the top corner. To export results, straight after the race when the results come up, clikck export in the bottom right. All these files can be found in mydocs/pcm11/exports I think.. |

rorzcp & kitface are right about that. Don't forget to use screenshots in a .jpg format. I use the standard Windows paint to cut/slide the picture (to leave something out of it, eg only the riders photo & stats, not the right part of the screenshot) and then use paint.net (free download) to convert them to .jpg instead of .png. Then I use imageshack.us to post the screenshots in the story.
Good luck with the story, always interesting to see what you can do with these old men!

@Kitface- Okay, I think I got it, Thanks
@dienblad- I'll do the screenshots the way I always have done them for the team presentation, and if you think they need to be the way you said then tell me after that. |

Are those your goals or sponsor's goals?
Only team classification at the Tour de France?

They are my goals, the sponsor's goals were stupid.
What do you mean? We will go for the team classification and a Top 10. |

Nice, maybe just think about cropping your screens so you don't have two of the smae thing basically, eg. the team stats.
And also, Levi looks a little too much like Horner for my liking... |

lol you put Horner's screen for Levi.
Don't you want a sprinter for one of the GT's? I recomend putting McEwen for the Giro, and Robbie Hunter for the Vuelta, while not sprinting at the tour.
I also recomend using Matthew Busche as a domestique for the Giro or Vuelta. I train him hard and he progressed to a 73 mt. Then he protected Christian Vande Velde, (On my custom team) and ended up 13th at the Giro and 9th at the Vuelta, with Vande Velde 5th and 3rd.

@kitface- Thanks, I'll crop them if I post something like the squad.
@baseballlover312- Sorry about that, I'll fix that soon You've got a point, but I already planned out the whole season and I don't feel like changing any of the schedules.
@rorzcp- He's got great form right now, but I think the route's going to be a little too hilly for him. He is going to use the championships to get better form for the TDU |

Our Squad
Robbie is the only Ausie on our team he will have to do the race with no teamates. It would be great for him to win it, but it might be a tad to difficult. He will sit in the middle of the pack and see if he can get a good sprint result in the group he is in at the finish. If he feals good, he may try to get in the break.
With 132 K to go a heavy caliber breakaway is let go. Roberts, Brown, Renshaw, Clarke, and Cam Meyer are all part of the 7-man group. They would get a max lead of 5:10.
Its a rough start of the season for Benjamin King as he crashes with 130 K to go. Hw would later rejoin the peleton.
Mark Renshaw suffers a puncture with 77 Km to go. He catches up with his breakaway compainions 5 k later.
Mitchell Docker attacks from the field at 76 K and the peleton lets him go up the road.
The problems continue for the breakaway as David Kemp punctures at 65 K. It takes him over 10 K to catch up.
At 50 K the situation looks like this: Docker is 53 seconds behind the break and the pack is 3:11 behind him.
3 Km later Docker joins the group, now 3:55 ahead of the peleton. It is looking more and more like the breakaway might succeed.
At 21 K the break still has a lead of over 2:00. Goss, Cooke, and O'Grady attack out of desparation. 6 km later they are taken over by the peleton.
At 10 K the break is still ahead by 1:22 and O'Grady attacks one more time and is followed by Cooke. They are not able to get away.
At 9 K Cadel makes his move and is followed by Gerrans, Goss, Cooke, O'Grady, and Rogers.
This is what the situation looks like after going over the final climb. It's almost certain that the winner will come from the breakaway. Robbie comes over the top on Hausslers wheel, but it cost him.
Evan's group is caught at 4 K by the field. Robbie is still on Henrich's wheel and has a chance at a good result.
Roberts opens the sprint for the breakaway. Docker is 3rd wheel, Brown is 7th and Renshaw is 8th.
Graeme Brown wins the sprint ahead of Docker and Kemp and becomes the new Austrailian champion!
Back in the field mase carnage strikes at 500 meters. It all started when a very exhausted O'Grady took a corner to fast and hit the deck hard.
Amazingly, Robbie and Cooke manage to stay upright.
Bobridge wasn't so lucky.
He crashes into Stuart's bike and cashes a chain reaction.
Haussler sprints to tenth while Robbie gets 14th. Benjamin King broke his shinbone in the crash and is not expeded to return until mid February.

When taking screens, press ctrl+u before you take screens. It gets rid of the HUD, and screens look far nicer. Also, I recommend cropping when necessary. For example, your picture of my team was only one rider, you didn't need a whole empty screen for that.
Other than that, nice job. |

Nice job but size your screens accordingly. And it's horrible that Radioshack is withdrawing. From an American to an American: You have to get and American sponsor!!!

Thanks, 2 questions:
1. Do I need to press ctrl+U before each screenshot, or can I do a bunch of screenshots after pressing ctrl+u.?
2. How would you recomend croping them? |

Thanks, I know that it's terrible, I wish that you could extend contracts in PCM 11... I'll try my best to get a US sponsor, but if I can't find a good one by July 1st, I may have to look elsewhere |
