I repeat what I said above, in my opinion everyone who made an effort to do something deserves some credit, even if it wasn't original.
Personaly I think you've shown some nice stuff in the short time you've joined us, Bikex, so keep it up! 
Other then that, this isn't the place to discuss the general principles of the game 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

So you are the guy that gets the riders i've chosen during many hours preparing the drafts and the one to get the wildcards that i applied for.
First of all, Sporting Clube de Portugal it's the team name since 1906. Not that stupid name you called it on the first post. By the way, that text is very confusing, you have that obvious mistake about the team name, and that thing about the crisis...i didn't get it...Portugal is in crisis, Spain is in crisis, Europe is in crisis.
Transportadora Aérea Portugal was a good choice to be a partner, but with spanish nationality you don't get the bonus.
Just to remember what happened and that caused me to leave after spending so many hours during a lot of weeks to plan what you are now enjoying, here is what happened:
1- During the drafts TMM made mistakes with riders names, he also didn't update the posts with the drafts and for two occasions i got penalized. Also there was no official lists of riders available to draft and there were penalties if you choose one that was not avaliable.
2 - Then on the round where we couldn't choose our own nationality, TMM decides to give another portuguese rider to an away player, while i was the only portuguese player and 5 riders have already been chosen by other teams.
3 - When the applications for WT opened i sent in quite a few proposals with detailed explanations with the reasons why i deserve a wild card to every one. I was expecting that everybody would do the same and i never, never expected (just like TMM) that most teams sent in few wild cards. Result i got them all with the exception of Paris Roubaix. With Zoltan to win the Giro and Rui Costa and the french fighters to win Tour stages, this was my first priorities. I also stated when i applied that if i couldn't go to Giro i would like to race Vuelta instead, because the team were good enough to win a GT that not the Tour.
3 - Then i spent a lot of time planing the season and i realized that i couldn't sent 9 riders to WTGT, 8 riders to WT races and 6 to CT races. The difference was very short and if i gave up of one up the wild cards it would be enough. The conflict came when TMM took Giro out of me and i presented my options:
Option 1 - taking 7 riders to 1 or 2 WT race
Option 2 - not participating on a CT race
Option 3 - Retrieving Pais Vasco wildcard
Option 4 - Going to Vuelta instead of the Giro
Option 5 - Not going to Giro meant that i was out.
On TMM words:

Subject RE: number of riders
If this causes you to quite go ahead. I'm not going to change my mind.
So this is the story of how i left UCPCL, so please be a more accurate when you are talking about my team, and about the way you got the riders and schedule i select (with the exception of the Giro).
Because of the easy way how TMM told me to leave, the way the other guys were just worried about their own interests and just cared about what would happened with the calendar and the custom riders, etc, because no one stand for me not even once on any of this disputes, and because i spent a lot of time and effort to create the team all of this was a big disappointment.
So, i will not follow what the team i build can do on this league.
Anyway, i have nothing against you, so from Portugal i wish you Good Luck with Rui, Tiago and the others. |

Kimiopn, just stop doing this childish behavior. How old are you? First quit the game in stupid way, then the locking of the thread, then this... When you signed up you agreed with TMM as boss... If you dont like this, go away, and dont be a troll... |

I don't see why sporting is a stuppid name but if you don't like it I will change it... The situation in Spain is a lot worse than in other European countries, the economy is decreasing the number of unemployed is increasing, same in Portugal in other European countries, beside Greece, it doesn't seem to be a crisis. I think I believe you about the thing with the wild cards but I don't want to interfere in that I think it's a trouble between you and TMM. And I think it's hard for him to plan anyways and it just could be distracting if someone always wants to change something, but as I said I don't want to interfere in that. Indeed I really like the team you built up but I think I am not only enjoying this as you said I am putting some effort in this as well.
But anyways thank you for the felicitation |

who the hell cares about your story on how you left UCPCL. you left on your own accord instead of dealing with something that shouldn't be even an issiue, your the one that stupidly asked for so many wildcards.
you quit, forget about it

Could you post them in the General Thread. I imagine they would get a lot of use from various people.

First startlist announced
The manager of TAP - Michelin released the first startlist today. It is already for one of the most important races in the calendar for us, since it's the only Portuguese race: The  Volta ao Algarve:
Team Leader:
Rui Costa
Team Mates:
Spoiler
 Edgar Pinto Joao Cabreira Filipe Cardoso Bruno Pires Rui Sousa
Our full Portuguese squad will try to put Rui Costa in the best position in his goal to win the overall classification and to make the sponsors happy. It is going to be hard but we have the opportunity to start with a win in the season!
Some other teams had made a game, quiz or something else to make their fans happy. Now TAP - Michelin comes up with another game to interact with the fans. Goal is to gain as much points as possible. Everyone who wants to take part has to make some statements about what happens in a race TAP is participating. You can make as much statements as you want. For each right statement you will get bonus points, more points for statements that are more unlikely and became true. Don't make to much statements for every wrong statement you will loose one point! Of course you are allowed to guess the race winner and he is not a rider of TAP but you will get less points if you guessed right as if the race winner is from TAP and you guessed him! The maximum points you can get per statement is 10. The number of points you get depends on how much others took part and how much gave the same statement as you as well!
The Ollfardh Rule: You are allowed to make any statement you want to make but with statements that are obvious like this: https://www.pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthr...ost_669853 or this https://www.pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthr...ost_669860 you will even have the opportunity to win the Ollfardh-Price that is the same like 0 points!
Example:
Player 1 : Rui Costa TOP 5 and stagewin
Player 2 : Rui Costa crashes, he abandons
Player 3 : Rui Costa TOP 10
--> Costa gets third but crashed and got no stage win
Player 1 :
Rui Costa TOP 5 --> 6 Pts
and stagewin --> -1 Pts
Player 2 :
Rui Costa crashes --> 10 Pts (very unlikely)
he abandons --> -1 Pts
Player 3 :
Rui Costa TOP 10 --> 3 Pts (less likely than Top 5)
