I'm just going to watch this, and if it turns out as great as I seems, then I'm surely in when(or if ) the full version arrives...

Glad you like it
The Stage Race we will be playing is either Dauphinée 2012 or the V1 version of the Variant Pack of Cyanide of Paris Nice.
Anyone has a favorite? |

The Mole will now be chosen with the following site:
https://www.random.org/
The applicants have been given a unique number, 1 was the first one to subscribe, 8 the last.
The Mole will receive a PM momentarily.
EDIT: The Mole should've received a PM about now. Those of you who have not received a PM, your task during the following weeks is to complete as many tasks as possible. But keep your eyes out for those trying to sabotage. Your goal is winning this game, so good luck to all of you!

Yes, I will post all the profiles, probably later today. I will also post the list of objectives with them.
Since this is only a trial version, I will just take a jersey from the game. I hope that if the game can be launched later on, someone will be so friendly to make a jersey for the team!

Race Schedule and Objectives are up!
Discussing general tactics (for example for team classification) is allowed, but the final tactics per rider are to be PM'd. What you discuss with others is not binding (so the Mole can say whatever he wants) |

We Are Ready For Launching
It's time to kick off. I request all members to hand in their first tactics for the Prologue. There's not that much to be done for a prologue, so it's a -getting-to-know the system.
Let's say everyone has about a day to send them in? I'll probably won't have time to race today and even tomorrow might be difficult. So I might race it Monday. I think everyone should've sent in their tactic by then.
Feel free to discuss General Team Tactics in this thread, after all, that Team Classification is not being won if the three strongest do completely different things.
The objectives and stage profiles are up in POST 3.
We'll see you at the other side! |

Don't forget to keep all the objectives in mind before sending in your tactics!
Team Classification is an objective, so select at least 3 riders to try and get a decent spot on the GC! Another example: Stage x requires a breakaway. It may be best to discuss it first who will try to get into that attack, instead of all sending in tactic: attack.
If anyone has any more questions, feel free to ask.

Updated - Some rules, mostly the points - system. You will now get a bonus point for being the only one guessing the Mole right. A point will be lost if you are (unfairly) suspected of being the mole by everyone else.
Also want to stress the fact that discussing tactics is really recommended. I said it before but it's important. Those objectives need to be completed and it's wise to take a look at them before the race with the entire team, and try to divide the work, to get an overall view. The Mole can abuse these discussions, of course. |

Ok, so what do you guys think should be our tactic? There are a lot of mountain stages so I think we could go for a team competition with 3 best climbers... |

I'm down with that, for tomorrow I can't give much in terms of team, as im really poor on the prologue but then for the mountain stages we shouldn't do too much attacking, instead we should try and "sky" the opposition to death?

Well, I personally think that we should dominate the Morzine stage, we could do very well there with a bit of luck! |
