Dear friends,
I came to know the Peloton-Game last week, registered, started racing, hiring riders and having lots of fun. I was a former mountain bike pro rider here in Brazil and really love the sport of cycling. Had a few races in road bikes too, altought did not manage to get encouraging results.
First thing is, I would like to compliment the creator of PG for the logical coherence of the game and the consistency of the results considering the riders skills and tactics set. The other bright side of the game is its similarity to the real world of cycling.
That had been said, I would like to suggest, or even more, propose, the criation of a Brazilian federation to the game. I have many former cyclists on my relations and about 50 are internet fans. I am sure they would be glad to join the game. So, I though it would be wonderful to start a new federation from zero with all teams with the same opportunities.
Thanks for the attention. Sprinter.

So here is my main concern: shall I invite my Brazilian colleagues to the game and ask them to enter Greece and play with me, and get a further removal to Brasil; or may we start already in the new federation? I am afraid that if we are forced to change the flag many will quit the game if their teams are reset. And if the teams are not reset the oportunity for an equal start does not exist anymore.

There is a good idea but perhaps the better its to make a South American league, taht inclued Brasil, Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, Venezuela, Chile, Bolivia, etc... It will be more competitive and good for the game.

That's a good idea, elgringo. I was thinking of doing the same for the Scandinavian countries.
Give me a little time to create the South American leagues. We'll also have to see how to deal with the time zones, for (fun)races and such.

It´s quite a good idea too! But it´s very important to create once and for all, I mean, not creating now South America and two seasons later another country. The beauty of the thing is the starting from zero, I mean, all players that join this new league start their teams from zero.
I would like to thank elgringo for all the support he gave me in private messages in the game that led me here to this forum and posting the poll and the proposition.
Regards to all.

Dear Padrino, Maybe mantaining a unique time zone for the game by now has the benefit of keeping it simple, just like you did to the currency ($) which was another very simple and clever way to deal with international transfers. As the races are in a one-by-day basis, there seems we would not have much problem setting the tactics for each one of them at any time along the day. Or night I would prefer a Brazilian League, but you guys certainly know the game much more than me and certainly led it to the nice game it is today so, if you feel reasonable, a Sudamericana League would be ok. But, once more, it would be very important to keep the game atractive to have starting from zero teams rather than deslocated teams. Cheers!
