I was not teamplaying with ryant. I have never spoken to him via PM or offsite. He did benefit from a failed tactic of mine in Round 3, but one someone else could have taken advantage of then or in Round 5 when i tried it again.
Round 3 i tried to go really long as it was clear to me i wasn't going to get good placings using normal tactics having been blown away twice in a row. He latched onto me, at which point it was too late for me to stop pushing hard. By stopping i would certainly finish 5th having already burned so much energy. It was the same move i used in Round 5, except that time i managed to get the gap early on.
Round 4 i'm not sure what you meant by team playing. I was holding level position with someone, myself on the bottom and them slightly up the track, for most of the race. Then someone came down in front of me from what was at least a 3 wide situation and from there i finished 4th place in that Round.

No point in arguing it, I saw what I saw, but I'll never be able to convince you. Just ignore this claim, I'll withdraw. I'll still help if you need any help with hosting

Can anyone that doesn't participate in tonights 200m TT please host for us (please Failured)? The main reason is that it lags for all the guys and not for the actual host (whoever it is) and that's favouring him so much.
I can be an external host sure, but isn't SN your host for tonight?
Read the 2nd part - SN is a host but it's favouring (not sure if it's the right word) him tonight, as everybody else will have the usual "lag" (you know it, that you can't get from the top to the bottom of that velodrome quickly) except him (as a host, he won't have any problems with the "lag"). That was my point.

It's in these cases you move your rider up and down the velodrome to avoid that the player behind you sticks to your wheel - you don't have to stop.

We can re-run the event on another day if you guys feel that seriously aggrieved as to withdraw from the entire championship.
Round 3 yes he (ryant) did benefit from my tactic, but as shown in Round 5 it was not intended as a teamplay but as a solo attempt to try and improve my own position (as Round 1 and 2 showed i was way behind). Still don't understand the problem with Round 4 as ryant would have had to swing out around at least another rider on my outside who was keeping me pinned to the bottom.
@Lag/Host
Failured can "external" host, no problem. Would like to have seen some responses if we weren't currently debating his withdrawal

Nah don't rerun it. Ryant won it, it shouldn't be taken away from him. Just be careful how you ride your races in the future. I'm trying not to make a big deal out of this.
