Magenta you're so pushy to get these races done. Relax Crommy and SN will do them in their own time i dont see why they need pressure put on them. And "that's not good" i think you have forgot how much work these guys put in. |

Agreed, Magenta you are probably the most ungrateful manager in the game. You always are asking when the next race will be, but when it is raced - have you ever said thanks to the person who raced it? Or do you just straight away ask when the next race will be again?

lol i've never seen here a manager to thank for every race and this kind of things. Smoothie you always say that they put hard work and hard work in their freetime (i agree, i never said that it's not true), always and always the same reason when we have to wait weeks for a race. It would be a lot easier if instead 2 reporters the game would have 5 or 6 coz voluntiers are at least 5.

Its Run on PCM 06 and its hard to find people that have that game or have it installed. And also there are more than just 2 people that Report on the races. There is also CrueTrue and a number of others, but CrueTrue has been working flat out on the new site... Just give it time. That's all. |

You seem to be the only manager so desperate for everything to be raced quickly. I would have thought that if you were so desperate to see the results, then you would at least have the decency to say thanks to whoever did it. You don't see other manager do it, but maybe thats because they actually have the patience to wait?
Also, dont pretend that you only post when theres been a weeks gap and no races. Paris-Roubaix was raced yesterday and yet today you were already inpatient.

Well I kinda agree on both parties. Obviously a days wait shouldn't be rushed by asking, but there HAS been quite some waiting, where people, me included has offered my help. The fact that it's run on PCM 2006 is no problem for me, the fact that my offer hasn't been responded, however is.
I doubt it is a big problem to have more people racing, it's simply a matter of asking for it to happen.
But atm I feel that the races are back on track, and I can easily live with the pace going on now. But obviously i'm as eager as ever to get things going, as I tend to love the results :-P - And the offseason even more. |

Playing pcm06 would not be a problem for me too...
I just made some calculations which says that the 2008 Man Game season was covered in 126 days and the 2009 Man Game season until the last race which is Paris Robuaix (12th race of 33) was covered in 107 days.

It's not playing the races - that's done. It's making the startlists and the custom race files which take time. |

yes i know...but for start other members who has more time can't make the startlists? and the other necessary things..the big bosses should only verify them.

That would create more problems than it would solve. It would involve sending others who want to make the startlists all the schedules for each team, the person making it would be slower as they will not have a fast technique, and then verifying them would take as long as making them. So its not worth the effort.
Bytheway, whats with the new sorta childish username?
And finally, the riders are in Maastricht and awaiting the countdown for the start of the Amstel Gold Race. 3 .. 2.. 1.. and theyre off!

I have targeted this race, sending World Champion Valverde here with a quartet of Dutch helpers that include Kroon and Gesink. Now is the time for French Televisions to begin their domination.

Well ive raced it now, its odd how I find continental races so much more exciting than races like this. The change to PCM08 just cant come quick enough as far as gameplay with the best riders is concerned

2nd wasn't to bad for Valverde. He needs to pick up his game or risk being shipped out at the end of the season.
