Hopefully my breakaway efforts will play into your favour, and we'll be able to stop the breakaway over this lumpy terrain

We all have to finish as high up the GC as possible so we lay claim to the Team Classification |

Ironically, Fast Joe is the only one left to send in his tactic. If he misses the deadline, mole or no mole, I will choose the following tactic for him: do nothing, no helping the team, no sabotaging the team it's that easy, people |

Fast Joe being that slow, he has to be the mole, don't you think?
75% chance that I'll race tomorrow! |

The Mole continues for the entire trial version. If a full season would be played, the season would be divided in "chapters" always with the same mole per chapter. |

After every stage, you get another vote. You can change your mind any time, every vote is different if you have any more questions, do ask them.
Good news, everybody (where is that guy with the futurama-screenshot?), for the first time in my PCM-life, I have figured out Startlists. This means the full-season game will exist out of a made-up WorldTour season, with a random factor "handing out" injuries. (Every race day, you have x% of getting injured), something like that I was thinking.
The full season would exist, like I said, out of a fake WorldTour. Which means I will make a season, mostly out of WorldTour races, and divide them into blocks. Every block has the same riders and the same mole. Probably. |

News About A Full-Length Game
Depending on this trial version, there will or will not be a full season game. Since the gamemaster is really hoping there will be, he (so, I) is starting to puzzle together a season. Here's an update, give me some feedback on it if you'd like:
The season would be raced in single race/stage race mode with startlists. (so Contador doesn't ride every race). I have broke down the season in 16 big sections. 2 of 6 race days, 4 of 7 race days, 4 of 8 race days, 2 of 9 race days and 3 of 21 race days (GTs). The team would consist out of 24 riders, split into 3 groups of 8, team A,B & C
I'd split the races like this, so everyone has just as many race days at the end of the season, so the point-balance is fair:
Group A: 1 of 6 race days, 1 of 7 race days, 1 of 8 race days, 1 of 9 race days, 1 GT.
Group B: 1 of 6 race days, 1 of 7 race days, 1 of 8 race days, 1 of 9 race days, 1 GT.
Group C: 2 of 7 race days, 2 of 8 race days, 1 GT
This gives every group 51 race days, and everyone the same chances of winning the season.
An additional stage race may be organized for the 3 winners of each group, forming a group of 9, fighting each other in the Tour.
List of Groups with race days:
- Down Under (6)
- Paris-Nice (8)
- Tirreno - Adriatico (7)
- Tour de Catalunya (7)
- Cobbles (omloop, KBK, E3, GW, RvV, PR) (6)
- Basque Country (6)
- Combination (3 Ardennes + Romandie) (9)
- Supergiro d'Italia (21)
- Tour de Suisse (9)
- Critérium du Dauphiné (8)
- Tour de France (21)
- Tour de Pologne (7)
- Combination (San Sebastian + Bejijng) (7)
- Eneco Tour (8)
- Vuelta a España (21)
- Combination (Canadian Classics, Lombardia, Hamburg, Plouay, Paris - Tours ...) (8)
Tell me what you think of it? |
