Secretaries are:
Team Coppi: jandal7
Team Bartali: MARSUPILAMI
Team Magni: weirdskyfan64
We start the first round with phase one. The secretary from each team has to send me a pm with a Yes/No question about the cyclist.
The questions and answers will be released later, but in this thread. So the other teams will know what you asked and what the answer is.
The penalty for being late would include not knowing the answers but no team was ever in danger for that
Not pinning a deadline on this phase but let's say four to five days should be enough to come up with a y/n question  |

Just out of curiousity: which teams are discussing it at the moment? Meaning: are you playing or not?  hard to monitor at the moment so I'd love to know |

Round 1 - Phase 1 - Results
We have our three questions. Oddly, no questions about the rider's speciality/abilities, which will make it a tough round with only 5 races to pick from!
Team Coppi: Is TSP a european?
Answer: Yes.
Team Bartali: Does the last name of the rider start with a letter in the range A-L?
Answer: No.
Team Magni: Are they Western European?
Answer: Yes.
With these clues, you can now send up to 5 races/stages to simulate on PCM15.
Let's say a week should be sufficient to come up with the 5 stages. Good luck! |

Coppi's question didn't really help...
Also didn't really read the rules enough to realise we all found out answers

I suggest you read the rules once more before moving on, there are some helpful tips in there, too
It'll be a tough round, that's for sure  |

Do we actually need to send in all races at the same time, or can we send one, await result, and then send another one?

Good question, yes I have not specified that yet.
It is all 5 at the same time.
Unless everyone feels it would be better otherwise (but it means a lot more work on my end)?
It's open to discussion, though. Maybe a middle ground, that you can send on 2 separate instants for example, where you can choose your own division (1 race - 4 races, 3 races - 2 races...) |

Bartali has send in their 5 races, great!
Hope Coppi and Magni are also getting closer to deciding what races to send in |

Yes, only Team Bartali has send in their 5 races.
Nothing from the other teams.
I'm sort of counting on the players to keep this alive. I won't be posting here every day begging for the teams to keep playing and send in their races |

I know have all teams submitted. But it'll be 10 days before I can do them. Until May 4th I'm extremely busy. After that I'll run the results and we resume the game |

3 days ago my new computer arrived. So I'm bringing it up to speed and yesterday I've installed Pro Cycling Manager 2015. Just solving a few more things (transfering stages etc) so I could run the simulations sooner rather than later! |

Just did a small test. Everything works fine. Can't open the result, though, since I don't have office installed yet. Hope to do that tomorow and then the secretaries will receive a pm with the results. Those are jandal7, Marsupilami and weirdskyfan64 |

Phase 3: Guess who!
Here you can take the following steps.
10 pts: Guess the cyclist. If wrong:
5 pts: ask for the rider's nationality OR team OR ask another Y/N question (privately) and then guess the cyclist. If wrong:
2 pts: Get a hint. Guess the cyclist. If wrong:
0 pts.
The results have been sent to the secretaries. The identity and team of the secret pro have been hidden, but his result and placing hasn't.
Now discuss in your group who the Secret Pro is. The secretary should send me a pm with your guess.
Then follow the steps above and by pm.
Good luck! |
