I know I tried this ages ago, but I wish to have another go and be a bit more realistic this time.
This is the chance for you to create a rider, put him into a fantasy DB, and then see how he gets on racing throughout a season. Let's expand shall we?
You make up a rider, be it your name or some made up one, then give him stats, and make him join a team. I put him into a Db, and then when we have enough entrants, we will race a similar calendar to the ProTour, with all riders riding every race. Points are then awarded as to positions, with the best rider awarded winner at the end of the season. During the off-season, riders can change teams, and will be awarded stat increases.
Rules:
Team Numbers:
1. Maximum of 6 riders per team. Teams without 6 forum riders will receive AI riders
2. A total of 18 teams, that's 108 spots!
Running a Team:
3. Each team will have a team manager nominated who makes decisions on who to sign, and can fire people if they are inactive if, and only if they are inactive for the racing part of the season and the off-season. A team manager can also decide on a change of sponsor.
4. Team managers should be democratic, and have full team support on decisions
5. A manager can be fired if his team have a majority agreement he should leave
Transfers:
6. Riders can force entry onto a team with spare forum spaces, or leave a team
7. Forum riders must always be on a team, and will automatically get a team if they fail to find one
Racing:
8. Riders race every race in the calendar
9. The current leader of the rankings will wear the world champion's jersey
Stats:
10. Each rider starts with 60 stats in everything. 50 points can be added to begin with, a maximum of 15 per stat
11. Each rider will be given 10 stat points to add on during the off-season
12. A rider who does not state how they will spend their stat points for 2 successive seasons will be removed from the game
13. Riders must start off as a minimum of 19 years old
14. A rider can choose 2 races to peak for, which he'll gain 2 added points in stamina, and 1 in recovery - Maximum of 1 stage race! Peaks are on page 12

oooooooooooh ooooh I want Astana. I have such bad luck with votes. And half the members have a personal vendetta against me.
I still want High Road. Never mind.
and you wonder why people have vendettas against you......you could just have edited your old post or deleted it
That was 6 or 7 posts up so I doubted that Crommy would see that and if you looked into it if i needed to change something and I had the last couple of posts then I edited it and I don't think that is something to get a vendetta about and last of all get of my back!!!!!!
It may not cross your mind, but when i started getting on at Deadpool, i took it to PM. THerefore stopping annoying other members and the such. THe next time you hear a complaint from me, it will be via PM. And it will be abusive.
Onto my actual reason for posting this, people DO read back up the page, I generally do it about every 5 new posts. Just to refresh my brain of what has happened. I'm pretty sure that Crommy would read back up...

*sigh*...I was just being sarcastic, it was a stupid joke.....no need to get upset
Well I'm get kind of angry because of people especially like rjc_43 who feel like this site should be under a dictatorship and he should be the dictator.
EDIT That wasn't necessarily for you just for all the people who do take it personally for whatever reason.
