The Hobbit has entered 5 riders for the European TT. What do I do Lord Ollfardh?
Other than beat the living crap out of him.

What number of riders should make it safe?
To be really safe about 120+
To be safe 100+
Although you could send 200 riders and still have a breakaway win, or have 20 riders and a proper race... Sh*t just happens some times

Also depends if there are large(and strong) teams or just solo riders.
F.e, Orica is dominant on the Aussie NC(+- 50 riders) and relays a lot, and therefore it gets a normal race

Boil him, mash him, stick him in a stew!
And get rid of the 5th one he entered
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I was just thinking: how do you allot points for the HQ's? Is it by posts you make there, amount of words you write there, or something different? Also, would things like posting in the race thread make a difference?

Hope my way of reporting in the HQ will be appreciated at least

That.
Though I think it's even more important if the favourites have domestiques as the underdogs will be looking for the favourites to do the work, but if the favourites haven't got any team mates they won't and then the break gets out of control.
I don't know the PCM13 engine that well, but in previous editions things usually end up reasonably well as long as there's 2-3 teams with at least 6 riders1 in order to have some designated domestiques.
Edit: That means that I'd expect all three races to behave decently

Done. All six startlists are on the previous page. If there are any mistakes, just tell me. Though I double checked and I'm 99.9% sure that it's correct. 
There are just enough spots for Lampre and Bardiani to add 2 riders each if they want. For some reason they both only entered seven despite having more riders available.

I have different criteria to rate, quality, quantity, originality, funnyness, punctuality, and whatever else I find amusing.

Punctuality.
Shit.
I always try to wait with reporting until a few races passed, so I can include that in my big reports instead of meh, small ones.
Anyway, we'll see, looking forward to distribute points, and debating with luigi about which riders to spent points on

Great job brewers, awesome of you to help out in such a way. As for Team NetApp - Endura: Everything is correct.

Well i'm at least all up to date now. Never going to write up reports or anything for FDJ. Waste of time for me.
You want to know the result? Look at the full report, or the summary!
Equally can't write anything worth while without a serious result, and all my comments are just in the main race thread rather than doubling them all up.
And why would i be funny? Cycling is not a joke, it's a sport, a serious sport! I am in charge of 30 people careers here, and making jokes about that would be irresponsible and decent grounds for disciplinary action by the Courts of Employment

I don't think the ratings for the team's HQ will be influenced by the riders but only by the manager. The riders will be rated on their own.
At least that's what i expect..
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

so the blogs they post in the team's HQ don't count towards HQ status?
I find that a litle bit wierd, but we'll see how Ollfradh goes about it
Spoiler my riders proprobly will get 0, would suck if the team would also get 0 aswell
