Again, no-one tried to steal my riders because we're only a high-CT/bottom-WT quality team, but the best riders' greediness has certainly increased over the off-season *cough* Gesink *cough*. On the other hand, huge thanks to Ramon Sinkeldam who selflessly insisted on taking a pay cut so we can afford to get some better riders in!

^ Good team update: will hope to get one up this weekend myself. I espy you have pwc as a sponsor there: could mean the sponsors are interested in Froome, no?!
I must warn you though, anyone after Froome will need to have chest-fulls of simoleons after he went full diva mode in the renewals! |

Thanks! Not certain who I'm going to try and get in, depends on how my steal offers went really (and no, I didn't try to steal Froome). The PWC sponsorship was why we went after a few Americans last year but that didn't really work, so I might try for a more varied team this year.

Not sure why Martin wants over 150 more than his current wage, considering he's getting older, had an awful season and isn't even WC anymore... stupid German
Also thanks to whoever tried to steal Jungels and increased his wage for me by over 200.
How many riders are needed for dev. team and what's the max age and overall? |

Managed to get renewals done. Everyone who I wanted out was out, kept everyone else in with little trouble except Roy who doesn't realise he sucks.

Renewals completed, only one young NZ rider refused my miserly offer.
Had to go to round 3 with Cav before we agreed. Coppel, Matthews and Bardet all took pay cuts which gives us some cash for the FA market.

All renewals are done, here is the new database: https://www.mediafire.com/download/x7v...ewals.xlsx
Only one steal was successful, also this time around there were a lot less steal attempts. Next season the fees will probably be lower again.

Good to see Allianz mass-targeted after trying to steal Pizzaro
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Ouch. 1600 on Demare and Croatia didn't even succeed? Looks like bwiggins will have no money for transfers then.

I'm very sorry I haven't posted the FA Files yet. I just got home, so had no time today and am tired now, so won't be able to do that today anymore. But tomorrow morning the first thing I will do is finishing and posting the File. I hope you understand. |

Free Agents Round 1
So, let's start with the transfers. This season we'll have three rounds of transfers. The first two each including a FA bidding and a part with transfers between teams. The last round will only have a FA bidding for teams who didn't fill up their team yet.
The first Free Agent biding file is here: https://www.mediafire.com/download/jlj...nts+1.xlsx
The rules (fyi the file works exactly the same like last season)
Transfer sheet guide:
1. Put your team ID in H2, you will see your budget popping up. You'll find your team ID in table teams.
2. You can manage your budget and decide how much you want to pay on scouting and research. Put a number from 0 to 100 in Talent focus. The higher the number the higher the money you get for scouting. In the research box you put actually the money you want to keep for research. Research files will be given to you after the transfer season. You can research on stats and other things that could benefit you.
Important: You don't have to decide now how much you want to keep for each of that, it is only included so you can plan ahead how much will remain if you spend something on research and scouting.
3. Bidding on a rider:
1. Put the wage you want to pay in column E, it can't be under the minimum wage, displayed in column F.
2. In column D next to it your team ID will then be displayed.
3. If you have done everything right, there will be a green light in column H.
In the tab DB, you can check the stats of all riders before bidding.
4. The number of riders displayed in J3 represents the minimum number of riders you have to sign until the end of the transfer period, you are free to sign more. WT teams need at least 25 riders, CT teams 18 and U23 teams 8. You do not need to bid for the number of minimum riders needed in the first round that's just the number you will have to signed at the end of the transfer window.
5. If you have a Development team you will do the transfers in the same file as of your other team. Riders of U23 teams can't be older than 23 and must have an AVG of 72,0 or less so make sure you at least sign 8 U23 riders.
6. It could be that M3 turns orange in your file, nothing wrong with that for the beginning but it means that you could get in money difficulties by trying to sign the needed number of riders.
7. Do not write anything in any other cell I didn't talk about!
8. Sort the file by the wage you are paying or column D.
9. Copy the columns A-E of the riders you want to sign and send it me in a PM in a table.
Important Rules:
1. Don't go over your budget! If you do so, you'll have to pay a fine, as much as you did go over the budget. Your FA bids however are allowed to be higher than your budget as you won't necessarily sign all of your bids. There is no limit for the total amount of bids you make but I reserve myself the right to decline bids, if I feel they are too much.
2. After the last round of transfers you will have to have signed the minimum amount of riders you need, if you don't your team will be filled by me.
3. Only bid a multiple of five. If you don't your bid will be changed to the next smaller multiple of five.
4. A rider will go to the team that bids the most. The team will have to pay the wage it offered.
5. If another team bids atleast 80% of what the leading team bid, the rider isn't signed. All the teams that were in those 20% will have to make a second bid on the rider via PM. The highest bidder will get the rider, in the event of a tie the rider will randomly be assigned to one of the teams.
6. After round 1 there will be a second round you can bid on all the riders that are still free by then. In total there will be three.
7. After the Free Agent bids a second transfer window will be opened in which transfers between teams are allowed. More specific rules will come then.
8. Maximum average of a development team rider is 72,00. The minimum wage of all development riders combined is 1000, the maximum 1500.
Sacking:
You can sack two riders at max. For the first rider the fee will be half of the riders wage for the second rider it will be 3/4 of his wage.
If you want to sack a rider, just go to the table sacking and put the rider ID in column A. Just copy columns A-B in the end and send them to me or tell me which riders you sacked by PM.
Hope everything is clear for now, if there are questions tell me.
I won't make a fixed deadline yet, as it's the first task for new teams, but I hope you can send this in as quick as possible. |

Yay!
One thing, Bikex:
- Will the potential potions (ie.6-7) stay the same price as last season? |
