u23 Riders
GoHash
Now I love to go up in talent, I think it is a little ambitious to not can go in and see the riders who win various u23 races are in play, so you can sign them on a contract may ..

Is it me who is completely gone and can not find out?
Or you can enter them somewhere `?

PS: so I think they could have made some "Wonder Kids", have not encountered one yet ..

If I understand correctly...

The riders who race in the u-23 races are the riders you are able to scout, in the scouting section. So if a guy from Ukraine wins all the races, send a scout to Ukraine

Ahh okey.. also toguht i was so, but i think is a very bad way to do it because all the teams usually follow the u23 riders IRL and i think u should be able to see there stats .. but maybe they do it otherwise in 2010 .. but thanks for the answer Smile

you're welcome...

I actually like it. I think scouting is a big part of the fun in PCM

on a related note : What the Hell was Cyanide thinking when they designed that scouting model ? Seriously, if i see a guy winning races i should be able to scout him directly.

teammanager : Hey, karl, why don´t you check out that Dusten guy from Belgium who won last weeks U23 Roubaix ?

Scout : No can do, i´m busy scouting talent in Belgium and i´ve never heard of this fellow. Don´t use the TV, you know i hade that. But if i happen to meet him in the supermarket i´ll have him ride around the block for me to see what he can do. Be sure to send me a photo !


And how strange is it that once you sign a U23 rider he completely vanishes out of the U23 circuit ? (changes into the normal cyclist DB as well, checked after it happened)
What´s he doing, taking half a year off to travel the world before starting his job ?
Made me not sign any guys other than that first as obviously the CPU doesn´t, most likely because of just that reason.


btw : How sure fire is it that a guy i´m sponsoring ends up riding for me ? Is there a certain point CPU teams sign guys ? Like they sign everyone on 1 day (like 15th of october, since new contracts start there) and i´m screwed when i miss that day, do i get a message about my sponsored guy wanting to ask me before he signs elsewhere ?

Sorry, haven´t played the series in ages (a bit of the 04/05 version, regularly the super old CM3 ), so i can´t look back to previous games experience here.

You can sign them as stagiaries, though, which means that they'll join your team in August.

About the sponsoring, I guess there's an increased possibility that he'll sign for your team - but honestly, I haven't noticed any difference. That may be because I'm mostly playing with Pro Tour teams. I could imagine that it'd be easier to attract a talent if you're sponsoring him while being a CT team.

How do you sign them as staigars?

when you offer them a contract there´s a little field that should say sth like "practice rider" or sth along those lines (german here, so just guessing towards the english version) right below the salary and contract length.


another follow up : The world ranking doesn´t reset for the new season, workarround i tried is to just export the DB into access with Hannes Converter, then copy one of the tables with all 0 in it into the UCI score table. haven´t reached the next game to check if it works, but guess so since there´s only that one table to change. (no rankings table in the DB, sorts automatically. Or did i miss it ? )
