Oh right, well I've made a horrible mistake
EDIT: Come on Euskaltel, you can do it!
Unless Favre goes somewhere else, then you can't.

16 spots, so 2 spots for Orica, Argos and Euskaltel
Although Champion System is doing an amazing comeback as well!
How do you dare calling this a comeback?!
Comeback sounds like we sucked early in the season, but to be more precise, we were non-existent back then
EDIT: @Ollfardh, could you please post the current rankings if you have them?

Come on Orica, keep up that good performance. Especially you Gerrans and Goss, bring those results!

Hmm, Hoped that I could stay in the WT , but it makes sense and it's logical that they will relegate

I like how the relegation fight has turned into a fight to actually be relegated

because it's just better to be in the PCT. You have more freedom to race the races where you can actually do good (no cobbels for example) and you can sign more custom riders that if they are 20+, they can usually get a lot of points. Looking at Europcar, the biggest point scorers are Kim, Khamse Khamphan and Voeckler. Schroder Peeters and Rolland got some decent amount of points but besides that barely anything from the non-custom riders and I doubt that without them, Europcar wouldn't even promote easily or at al. Jesleyh did a goood job building the team (mostly Jesleyh, getting them to sign requires talking to people and I hate talking. Why do you think I lost Kim to CSS for next season ) |

don't blame yourself on that. nobody can say no to Communism (especially when he literally can't say no because of his government..)

Your custom riders aren't in the correct thread. Also, I believe Grawunder isn't 'legal' according to the rules in that thread.
Oh, and welcome

I really hope you join as more faces are always welcome but seriously, all of those riders are ridiculous. At least try to be a bit realistic. A stage racer with no recovery, a punchy sprinter with no stamina and a TTer with 60 PRL are not going to do too well.

The most absurd thing is that you could easily make them that strong AND realistic, f you went for the 18-21-23 combo used by most.

first of all: nice to have you on board its always good to see some more people around here
and guys, please don't be so hard on him, he hasn't experienced a year of Cervero as we did
Still, you should look on what the others said, because making a rider realistic isn't just for realism's sake but that usually also improves his chances in PCM.

Welcome to EPIC Paul.
Gotta be honest though, that TT guy is hilarious, 82 TT 60 PRL. Best thing about him: As it stands, he won't even become national TT champion because he's german and he probably lose to Tony Martin.

Ok...
1. i'm going to make a few adjustments...
2. Why is Grawunder illegal?
3. I thought, that PRL just comes to mind in short TTs from 0-8 kms
4. What is this "18-21-23 combo" Dippofix metioned?

2. I believe the max stat for a custom rider to start with is 80, so 82 is too high.
3. It also has an impact in longer TTs, although a small(er) one
4. You can create 3 riders in total, one aged 23, one 21 and one 18. The older riders have higher starter stats.

the 18-21-23 years combo are the maximum ages the riders can have when you use three riders, I think everybody that started with three riders used this (with the excepting of my riders that are all 18 years old)

But if every rider is 18, don't they develop through the game much faster, than 23 year old riders?
EDIT: Which stat is the Stamina stat?
EDIT of the EDIT: Found it.
EXTRA EDIT: They are edited now....where should i post them?

Welcome, take a look at the custom rider thread to see how you should make your riders.
Secondly, Argos is taken at the moment, and I'm not 100% convinced Nacho is leaving. You can join with another team for now if you want.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.
