yes...can you explain the basic concept? the explanation on the main page went into too much detail without explaining the basics. I got completely lost 
sorry if this is demanding a little too much |

I've been re-reading it a bit, and I got the idea that we each choose a team and then go trough a draft.
but what about then? do you run the races in your PC on single player given the riders we chose? |

Basically, your first job is to pick a team. Go to the teams subforum and quickly claim the team you want.
Then look at the rider list: https://www.pcmdai...ead_id=678
You have to order the riders in each class in the order that you want them in, then youll PM that off to Crommy who, when the 20 teams are fillied, will use those lists to allocate 1 rider from each class into each team. As well as these 5 riders, you get the 20 strongest riders remaining in your team.
Then we get to the season, which is just the ProTour races. You select your team for each race, there are race points limits, but thats all you really need to know for now.

I think Crommy will do it in single player, simulating the races.

Ok, the basics.
You manage a team.
Basics over.
Sorry, I'll try to make it as simple as possible:
1. You pick a team
2. We have a draft for the top 100 riders, so the worse teams don't suck as much
3. The rest of your team is made up of the top 20 riders who weren't in that draft from the team you choose
4. We then go through the ProTour calendar, and you pick your teams in advance. However, you have to bear in mind each rider can only ride a certain number of races, which is stipulated by the "race points" ststem
5. Riders get points as with the UCI code with a few additions, so at the end of the year, we have a rankings table
6. (More on this at a later date) We then advance into the transfer season, where we'll have new wages published, re-signing riders, rider steals, free agent signing, transfers, and another draft.
Is that enough for you?
7. Season 2 will then begin

If you're still not sure, just keep asking questions. The first year hasn't been made that complex, so we can ease into the game

i'm just generally confused
so we order the riders we want, and have to get in there before anyone else |

I will update the scoring system soon.
It will be the only race where points are scored for team placings

sorry if it sounds a little selfish, i just thought it would be nice if you could wait |

Look at how the draft will work in the draft forum, it doesn't matter if you're not around

Is it 9 riders for every race, or 9 for the grand tours, 8 for the rest?
