F****ing injuries is ruining my PCM gaming
First career : I was Gerolsteiner and their sponsors "demand classic victories" and with my luck both Schumacher and Rebelin get injured just before the classics starts and are both out until July
Then i start a new one with Lampre
everything is going well until Benatti gets injured in Paris-Nice and is out until Giro Italia,
when i come to Giro the sponsors are medium happy and they exept a Giro win with Cunego. I play well and get Cunego to the 1 place and then in the last mountain stage in the Giro Cunego fall and break his wrist and has to abandon |

Well if you dont find a mountain stage in a tour that you have to win important enough to play it, then did you deserve to win the Giro?

It's just hard luck I'm afraid - it happens very occasionally, just really unlucky to be you - worst fall has to be 1 km from the line before the end of the Tour - he then abandoned

Yeh, I find it hard to sympaphise with problems or enjoy stories when any stages are simulated, whether they be Flat, Hilly, Mountain or TT.

Hey, he can play it however - I simulate sometimes, not because I don't want to play it, but I just can't be bothered

I simulate all time trials.
While I understand better results can be achieved from playing them manually, I don't find them extremely interesting. It seems they are more formulaic than a matter of strategy.

I often do this at the beginning of a race if none of my riders are in form or have a remote chance of winning. Especially if its a flat stage - I know I might sneak a podium with a 2nd rate sprinter by following a good wheel - but whats the point if your guy has 60 fitness and hes up against a half decent field? |
