 A few days later than expected, we've agreed on not only one, but two winners of PCM.daily's Idea Competition. We received a huge amount of excellent ideas, and there's no doubt that we'll be trying to implent more than just the ideas of the two winners.
So, first of all, thanks to everyone for sending in your ideas.
And secondly, congratulations to Rin AND rjc_43. You've both won PCM09!
So, why did these two win?
We decided on Rin as he came up with 6 very useful yet simple ideas. Many of these ideas were later echoed by other members which to us proves that they are something that we should work on implenting to the site.
rjc_43's idea isn't exactly innovative. In fact, we're currently running a game, the Fantasy Tour de France, which is somewhat equal to rjc's idea. However, his idea is season-based, and seeing that he's put an amazing amount of work into the it, we felt that it was worth honouring.
The two entries / PM:

1st idea
To the poll I would definetly add a small forum where you can have your opinion
Example :
You would open a poll if you would like to see the team radio (not radio tour) banned
Then in the Poll Forum the people can say yes because, no because and as a conclusion of that, you would have more activity in the forum because they would start to discuss
2nd idea
OK its called PCMdaily but maybe you could put in a "CM History" gallery where you can send in your CM screenshots
3rd idea
At the left there is:
Pro Cycling Manager 09
Downloads
Screenshots
Shirts database
I would put in a "Tips and Tricks" part where the people can send in their tips and tricks to the PCM09, also maybe a small faq if there are technical problems
4th idea
PCM records
I´ve seen SportingNonsenses 200m TT records thread, I think you could build it out like:
Oldest Tour de France winner
Youngest Tour de France winner
Low average Tour winner (I think you could win easily the Tour with Contador and his high average, maybe Fuglsang could win it Grin)
Most mountain points in a Tour (single rider)
Most points in a Tour (single rider)
Most wins (team) in a season
Most wins (rider) in a season
Most UCI points (team) in a season
Most UCI points (rider) in a season
Fastest Time Trial (Tour TTT or the Monaco TT etc.)
Biggest gap stage win (between stage winner and peloton)
etc.
Or send in their team roster etc. I think
5th idea
Cycling on TV
Members could send in streamlinks or TV time tables if there will be cycling on TV
6th idea
Is it possible to bring back the Database viewer but for PCM09?
rjc_43 wrote: Fantasy Cycling. Year Round. I know SN is running the Tour fantasy thing, and did with the olympics, but before I knew he was running that, I'd started work on my own fantasy tour. Then when it came apparant that daily wanted a new idea to run, I thought I would expand on just the fantasy tour, and attempt to run a proper, year round, fantasy cycling game. Hopefully most of the spreadsheet is self explanatory, but if not, I'm always available via PM/msn. I'd be happy to run the game for daily, or certainly help run it/set it up/whatever, as I'm sure you are aware I would. http://rapidshare...rkbook.xls Enjoy.
