Good ideea.
apart from the whole he chooses part... which is again unfair...

So we can already submit them? Can't we get an .cdb or an excel file with stats?
No, tomorrow at 18:30 GMT we can submit
.cdb should be the same as the PCMdaily 2013 DB .cdb, if you have it
Didn't he say it's with PCM Daily adapted by Atlantius to PCM 2011?
Makes no difference in terms of stats, as I haven't ouchad that part at all

I don't have pcm 12 no, also don't have editors (don't really understand how they work), so someone uploading it would be hugely appreciated
or you could take the 2minutes to download any editor and the .cdb yourself... or is that too sensible?
Ok, which editor do I need then and how do I make an excel file of it?
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Literally any community made editor will do. I would recommend Lachis as it shows you the riders AVG in the editor and is just generally awesome

Right, this is what I'm going to do:
I'm going to put a 9-men list of my riders, and having 6 reserve riders under it(whom a reserve leader).
Of course, I prefer my 9-men team, but I fear that I'm not the first one posting.
Behind those 6 riders, I have circumstances when they could be added, and for who.
It makes it complicated, but at least I have more chance of getting the team I want
And yes, Lachi's editor is awesome

Then all the persons have to choose another rider, so that nobody get that rider. And when you do it this way, then it's better that everybody sends a private message to The Rider instead of posting it here. But The Rider has to take a decision. Hope he gives a reaction before 18:30 GMT.

If we're doing it like that, I think nationality should weigh a bit too, also for neighbouring countries/countries with the same languages.
F.e. Koeningsegg getting preference over Husky for Norwegian riders, Purto Verde over Namibia for Spanish riders, Red Bull over Slovak for Swiss guys, Bridgestone over Aerlingus for Chinese guys etc.
Unless you guys think it's a bad idea. At least it makes the teams more realistic in terms of nationalities

Ordinarily, I would agree MrUFO but the rules stand. I don't want to overcomplicate things after all less than 200 riders will be selected, maybe its a bit unfair but even if your posting last you will still have quality riders to choose from and could easily still end up winning the GC, sprints or Ultra Classification depending how the race unfolds.
So everyone should post their squad lists in this thread.
I will post the squad lists (once I receive them) In the 'Tour of the Chosen' thread so people can see which riders they have definitely got.
By all means feel free to put reserves in your list.
@JesleyH - Choosing teams 'realistically' will be down to the users. I have no problems if Telecom Namibia want most riders from Asian counties, or if Pulso Verde wants Asian riders, that is 100% down to you and the others.
After all we live in a globally connected world, with people living all over the place, French people in Argentina, Brazilians in China and Penguins in England.

Hmm, database won't be downloaded for another 3 hours, would it be ok if I just make a list of riders I want and you just scratch out the ones that are not eligible?
