The custom team league is your standard cycling management game but with a few differences. You get to create each rider in your squad, stats and all. As well as the fact that every race has a different limit on how many riders can sign up.
After you sign up, each team will be given an excel document and a few thousand points to decide the stats of the team (don't worry, it'll auto-calculate  and you can leave some riders as auto-generated if you don't have time) once that is finished, you will have to plan your season, deciding wether to send your best riders to races that give more points or less, have higher or lower rider limits.
Then the season will start, with results that are just a picture, summary and export to keep the season moving quickly. The calendar will be based on the current world tour calendar but with some differences, it will only have one division this season but with different race categories inside of that.
As you can see, the game will not take up to much of your time to play, but you can still follow along and comment on results.
These are just some extra bits of information to answer any of the inevitable questions (will be updated):
- There will only be one division, minimum 12 teams, maximum 24.
- Points Scale: https://www.media...ev5tksd398
- Yes, there is a race day limit:
Spoiler | Average | Race Days | | 50-64 | 60 | | 65-69 | 50 | | 70-72 45 | 45 | | 73-74 | 40 | | 75 | 36 | | 76 | 34 | | 77 | 32 | | 78 | 30 | | 79 | 28 | | 80+ | 25 |
-Yes, there is also a stat limit for young riders, but I'll mention that when team creations open
-If you don't have time to create a whole team, there will be auto-fill options.
If you want to join, great  Fill in this form in the thread:
Team Name:
Abbreviation:
Nationality:
Secondary Nationality (optional):
Other Nationalities:
Jersey*:
*This can come later, but before the team creation ends, you can also pick a jersey of an existing team or a national team jersey, if you want.
Feel free to ask any questions, etc.
Thanks as well to jandal7 for helping me to get this started.

Looks interesting, there was a similar idea (with only 5 races though) that got cancelled a few times, so I hope this one makes it!

Thanks for signing up. I didn't know this had been attempted before.
@jandal Is the jersey that of Shonak's MG team?
I've also made a slight change to sign ups, 1 secondary nationality, but you can have multiple other nationalities, would you be able to edit your sign-up please jandal.
Also, I will join, but I'll do so near the end of sign ups, so as to not pick a nation with lots of teams.

I would love to join!
But a question, does the sponsor need to exist? I mean, does it already need to have a jersey in pcm? |

@MARS: Thanks for joining, you're in
@Episode: The team needs a jersey, although if you really want you can use a jersey of a real team, also you can request a jersey maker on the site to design a jersey for you, or check the shirt database: https://pcmdaily.c...game=PCM13 . Depends what you want

@episode: I'm forever going to call your team Haske rather than Hakse, I don't know why  but you're good.

now that's a start that many people have done wrong. making it too big for the first season. it's better to start out small and expand over the course of time because you would not be wasting too much time if it doesn't extend past season 1 and it's more appealing to join because you don't have to do that much.
I'll make an application if I catch up with my EPIC reports. it won't feel right investing time while I'm so being behind on update reports.

@SLuigi: Mind if as ask if you're saying that I have done that right or wrong. I've tried to keep it as little or possible for players (only two or three tasks you will have to complete I think).
Fair enough with wanting to finish reports before applying though,
@Jaxika: thanks for joining, you're in.

you did it right, although the team creation is a tad on the bigger side but that's easily bypassed. is it just stats or can you also decide names/country/region?

Cool, the team creation is stats, country, region, age, etc. although there are things if you don't have enough time you can leave those things blank and I'll put them in or you can even leave stats blank and just give a specialisation, which I'll fill in according to a formula I have.
Although I'll explain it much more fully when sign ups close and team creation starts.
