 Not relevant for this thread, but Jesleyh is on 47 zabels - Ollfardh (PCMDaily Expansion Pack Announcement)
PCMdaily Expansion Pack for PCM15 released
The eagerly awaited and most importand download of the year has arrived: the Expansion Pack V1.0 for PCM15 has been released this week! We're proud to say that this is probably the most complete Expansion Pack in years, with more features than ever. We've added more teams, even more custom sponsors, over 90 new races, sponsorkits for most races, real contracts for all WorldTour riders and much more. (Jesleyh)
Huge credits to the Database Team: haasje33, Jesleyh, Kentaurus, Matt17br, Paul23, Selwink, Sgdanny, Zecha and of course all other contributors such as clamel (xml files), Alakagom (Stats) or Jacky Durand (Sponsorkit). To provide a proper download speed for this huge file, it would be great to see you guys "sharing" the pack on torrent.
Note that a V1.5 now has been released and has been uploaded in the download section.
The Past and the Future
In addition to our website's very special Expansion pack release, we've also seen a few more DB projects popping up. Definitely some interesting news: ruben is coming up with a historic database. His RDB 2008 will feature probably one of the more favorite years of cycling. It's based on an old DB from OlegTinkoff and any help with shirts and other stuff is very welcome.
Two other projects will go the opposite way though: the (unknown) Future! EP Add-On | The Next Generation DB by sgdanny and the 2022 Future Database by haasje33. While the Next Generation just features riders born in 1993 or later (making for a half real, half fantasy DB), the Future obviously goes one step further and tries to "recreate" a possible "real world of cycling" in a few years from now. You can now already check the team's lists for both databases.
The Parallel DB from 4895 goes another step (or three or ten) steps further then: Imagine you are in a parallel dimension, a dimension where Marcel Kittel and Mark Cavendish will be better climber in the world, a dimension where World Tour's teams will dream to access in Continental and on the contrary, Continental's teams would do everything to don't down in World Tour.. Nuff said.
Old members and admins, new spambots and trolls
I almost feel like a veteran, with so many new faces around me. It's almost as if I feel like... like... a dad. (cactus-jack)
Hmmm, some spambots making their way on to the scene tonight. Some nice nostalgia. It's been a while. (baseballover312)
Yeah. Jeez. Come on Admins, quit slacking. I would have had it cleaned up by now. (Mresuperstar)
yes,your´re right, I may be a idiot. (troll)
Sam who?
Simone Ponzi (Good Energy) just wrote ManGame-history last week. We already had Sam Bewley completing a Monument-triple a few weeks ago. And now we (well, most of us) enjoyed someone else stepping up big time: the perfect Ardennes week! Ponzi became the first MG-rider to complete the prestigious Ardennes triple, when he won Liege - Bastogne - Liege in a sprint against Simon Spilak, Jan Bakelants and Yuri Trofimov. Epic stuff once again.
Speaking of Spilak: the ManGame just brought up it's very own 2agan, as 2pilak finished as runner-up in all three Ardennes classic. Peter Sagan? Overperformed (he's not the beast as he's in real life) and surprisingly went for two Top-5 results.
Thread of the Week
The Politics Thread. Donald Trump and a critical debate.
..still enjoying!
Other Races 2015: already featured in last week's news, but with some interesting racing from the Tour of Utah (now finished) and Vuelta Colombia (still running), it's certainly a thread worth reading these days. Special credit to Stromeon for providing us some in-depth looks/blogging from the action in South America, where Mauricio Ortega is currently leading the GC ahead of defending champion Óscar Sevilla. |
