Who's That?
ok, this is a new gamey sort of thing, it's bit like 4 Truths 1 Lie, so I assume it fits into Everything Else, we can move it if it's not.
The game is played by one person (probably me) posted an image of a cyclist. If someone correctly guesses the cyclist, the person who posted the question says that the answer is correct and you get one point. If nobody guesses it for 2 days, the person who posted it can post a hint and if nobody gets it for 4 days, anybody can post a new question. The first person to get to 10 points wins and starts the new round with the first question.
You can also be creative with your picture, if it has a couple riders in it, you can say ask for all the riders that are in it, or ask specifically for a riders nationality, or their biggest achievement, just to keep it interesting (*looks at TMM in a scared way*) but remember to post all of these rules with your picture and try to make it hard. 
Specific Rules:
1. You may only attempt to answer the question once, all edited posts will be ignored and if somebody thinks that somebody deleted a post and can provide reasonable evidence, pm me, do not post it in the thread.
2. Only the first person to answer correctly gets a point, nobody after that.
3. The person who asks the question must know the answer.
4. There is no rule to activity, play every question or just one every now and then, it's your choice.
5. 'The Google Rule' ok, you can you google to search up information about a rider, but please do not use the 'search by image' function, I know that it's impossible to prove wether or not you did, but it ruins the fun for everybody else and it's always more fun if you don't use Google.
6. If the winner of the previous question doesn't ask their question for 2 days, anybody else can.
7. ok, I want to keep this accessible to everybody, so only cyclists can be used. no football players (not of any type), cricket, singers, etc.
8. If there are multiple riders in your picture make sure you specify which one (or all)
Scoring:
The winner of each question scores a point. The scores are done in the same way as 4 Truths 1 Lie:
Spoiler 4 Point: trekbmc
3 Points: The Manx Missile, Ian Butler
2 Points: jesleyh, The Schleck Fan
1 Point: sgdanny, Jandal7, SportingNonsense, MARSUPILAMI
Each one shows how many points each person is on and the bolded player got the last question correct.
btw, I just took the first names in a thread to put here, just for an example
It'd be helpful if some people posted their opinions here, especially on a couple things (Please give a reason for your answer):
Is the game interesting?
What disciplines should we include, Men's Road Cycling is definite, presumably U23, but should we allow Cylco-Cross, Track and Womens?
And post any other questions and suggestions you have, especially if you don't like it, if you give me a reason so that I can try to improve it.
This game is minimal effort for everybody (including me), so it should be a bit of fun. 
I'll start the game tomorrow or in the next couple of hours with the first picture.

Sounds good, saw the title and thought you were mars, but this is a really interesting game, I'm all in, though I'm back on the road soon.
Also CX and women's seem good, track probably too.

Thanks,  You can take part at any point, so it doesn't matter if you miss any questions.
Does sound like a MARS title, but does anybody have any better suggestions? I can change the name.

No it's fine, people will see your name and know this is by someone who never ever spams.
Seriously though, good title.

Nice initiative, but do you know we already had a nice history with "Guess the cyclist" thread?

Can you give me a link? and how similar is it to this? I didn't know about that, so I guess it just depends on how similar they are.

Just like your first day on the site.

Was going to say, but that finished only a couple months after I joined, so I like this
You can just start it now if you want.

Just like your first day on the site.
Here is the link to the latest installment, it has long tradition here...
https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....rowstart=0
Anyway, it was easy point system, so you can expand it.

@Mars
I am sorry for the massive mistake in spelling you name. It has been fixed now.
@Avin
ok, well if nobody minds I'll start it again. Also, I'll look at the points system later, because this one is also simple.
@Everyone
Any opinions on what disciplines we should allow? or scoring systems?
Here is the first picture anyway:

Correct! ok, wondering if that was a tad easy.
Scores:
1 Point: fernando97
ok, you're up next.
EDIT: matt Veikianen'd me. Maybe that was a little easy though, thinking that 2 people got it that fast.

I recommend you guys upload to photobucket or an other photo sharing website, because the phot url can give away the answer. For example the picture url in the trek.s photo said Tour Med 2 2010, I googled the tour of Mediterra and found the stage 2 result of 2010 with that exact same picture |

ok, jihardy, thanks for the tip.
It'd be helpful if people upload like that from now on.
