Buy Pro Cycling Manager 2013 and support PCM.daily at the same time
Maybe you're one of the several thousands of people who are enjoying one of PCM.daily's databases. Maybe you once experienced a technical problem with Pro Cycling Manager that was fixed by the ever helpful members of PCM.daily. Or maybe you just like to wander the forums and chat with people from around the world who share your interests.
Either way, here's your chance to give a little something back while giving to yourself at the same time.
PCM.daily has once again teamed up with the official distributor of Pro Cycling Manager, Focus Home Interactive, to make it possible to buy Pro Cycling Manager 2013 (which you were planning to do anyway, of couse) while at the same time donating a part of the game's price to PCM.daily, which helps paying for the server costs and other maintenance issues.
It's quite simple: Buy the game from the banner below. Instead of Focus getting the entire cake, PCM.daily gets a share of it.
Please note: When clicking the banner, the site will automatically try to detect your area/zone. If you decide to change this manually, the link will change, and you will no longer support PCM.daily when buying.
It's also possible to buy the box version of Pro Cycling Manager and the console game, Tour de France 2013 (Xbox and PS3), while helping PCM.daily. Check out this site's Amazon store right here.
It's almost been a full year since the last release of Pro Cycling Manager, meaning that we're very, very close to the release of the next edition - 15 days, to be exact.
For the very same reason, we have now decided to open the Pro Cycling Manager 2013 forums, so you can begin to announce your stories, databases and release shirts, equipment etc. for the upcoming game.
In other news, I'd also like to mention that PCM.daily will launch the usual "Buy PCM13 through PCM.daily and support the site at the same time"-offer on Friday the 7th of June - so hang in there if you're a PCM.daily supporter ;-)
Lastly, some of you may remember that we mentioned a PCM Fan Day where PCM13 would be showcased - well, good news if you missed it. The full one and a half hour presentation can be seen at Twitch.tv, and it's certainly much more enjoyable than the usual trailers, screenshots etc. You really get to see what the game's like in action.
June not only marks the release of a new Pro Cycling Manager, but also our Favourite Cyclist Contest - ran by mresuperstar.
Now in it's 4th year, 64 riders go head to head in a simple vote, until the winner is ultimately crowned. Last year Jens Voigt was voted as PCM.daily's favourite cyclist, while the other previous winners are Thomas Voeckler and Phillipe Gilbert.
Those 3 are automatically entered into this year's draw, but here's where you come in. Make a post in the topic listing your 10 favourite cyclists (not including the above 3), where your favourite receives 10 points, down to you 10th favourite receiving 1 point. The 61 cyclists with the most points will qualify for the main draw. This nomination stage will end on Friday, so get your vote in now!
As always, there's varying prices across countries. In Great Britain, the price is 26.99 £ (29.99 £) while it's 35.99 $ (39.99 $) in the US.
For those of you who have been here previous years, you may remember that PCM.daily usually offers an option where you can buy the game through a PCM.daily link for the same price, but where PCM.daily gets a share of the cake (rather than Focus / Cyanide taking everything).
It's essentially what keeps the site running, so we'd appreciate if you wait for the PCM.daily link. Either way, you won't get to play the game until the 20th of June anyway ;-)
Other than a few shorts video of new animations, we're still yet to see any 'moving' footage of Pro Cycling Manager 2013.
That will change on Friday, though, when the PCM Fanday takes place at Cyanide's headquarters in Paris.
On this day, the upcoming game will be showcased to the ones showing up in Paris - and luckily, it will also be streamed live to Cyanide's Twitch.tv channel, meaning you will get to see PCM in action.
The stream will open up at 15:00 CET (Paris time).
