I see that now Nike undone the yesterday training.
But now we have also some other problems
5 min ago was 9 teams participating on Tour de France division 4.8 , now are only 7.
I know that Nike said that will not be an update yesterday but it was and then was some problems.
Maybe i'm the bad guy now but i said AGAIN :
1. a) this is ONLY a game, b) Nike have a life too 2. Don't renegociate contract in last week, maybe you have some problems that week and forget 3. Buy merchandise enough for 1-2 weeks, i know that now most of the teams have financial problems but some merchandise are not so expensive.
4. What now with my 2 teams from my division? 5. Dont erase division 7 , or who is the last, because if you put new teams in division 5 you will destroy them. It's very difficult to receive points in division 4 already. New teams need to make ENOUGH money in div 7,6,5. It's not important to have a division with 12 humans , important in the beginning are money to afford wages of trainer/cyclists

I see now this :
Because this might have removed some last minute changes for today's race, we have decided to delay the race until this evening so that everyone still has the chance to make tactical changes if necessary.
delay to what hour ?

Hmmm ... I've read the announcement. But unfortunately I can't change my tactics because the link is gone :-(
(For me it's not that critical - I only refined some material. But for other managers this may be crucial!)

Well, I think it's better to delay the start of the Tour until tomorrow or Wednesday (if it's possible), because a lot of users made their tactics after the weekly update (in the my division 3 of 12).

Curious if everything runs exactly the same. One of my cyclists got injured during last training update. Wonder if he will be again after this weekend.
Am I able to influence that if I decide to train him on something else?

But for other managers this may be crucial!) To be honest, those users had the wohle last week to check and change their lineups. Usually nearly nobody should be affected by todays withdraw of the update. (except the 1 or 2 new users that arrived yesterday around 20.00 ^^) As it was already said, this is only a game. Game means "gaming" and not "waiting". Is it just me who rather wants this Tour getting started instead of waiting again?!

I've got the same problem. Changed the tactics this morning and no option so set it again now.
Wouldn't mind if it wasn't TdF. I'm fighting for promotion and not participating in TdF would be a huge blow.
Having whole week doesn't change anything. I decided to wait till today because of recent problems with the game and wanted to be sure that nothing changes - see no reason why I should be "punished" for that...

I decided to wait till today because of recent problems with the game and wanted to be sure that nothing changes - see no reason why I should be "punished" for that... The only thing that changed was the higher fitness and the one more train for all riders. So yes, having a whole week for your tactics doesn't change anything except trying to benefit from a sunday update (that wasn't announced). So who is the one that is "punished"? The one who trusted the announcement and made up the tactics already last week (cause nothing new would happen until today) or the one who tried to exploit yesterdays wrong update? What's wrong with doing some standard lineup at the beginning of a week and to modifiy it in case of bugs or so on?

What's wrong with doing some standard lineup at the beginning of a week and to modifiy it in case of bugs or so on? First of all, I always try to set up my team on time, and I did for the tour, so all this doesn't harm me. But there could be reasons not to set up a team. For instance because you don't want your opponents to anticipate on your team. Or that you are trying to buy a new rider. Everybody has his own way of playing. I think everybody wanted everything to go smoothly, but it doesn't. We played this game a long time without problems, now we have. Of course that doesn't make me happy, but it is not the end of the world. Let's postpone untill Wednesday so Nike and IP can open tactics again so that everybody can participate and set up tactics. No more getting back to back-ups, than we loose a lot of transfers etc. That also annoys people.

For instance because you don't want your opponents to anticipate on your team. Setting a standard lineup doesn't mean to set the top riders in position. And even then you always have to keep in mind that bugs and/or sitedowns can happen. So it's only up to you which risk you want to take just for the reason that some opponents could spy your lineup. Btw. good players can do a sufficient analyse of their opponents without taking a look at the current lineup, can't they?!^^ Yeah. Some rare cases maybe did so. "Rare" is the magic word in this sentence. Absolutely. I'm only a little bit annoyed by those whiners that obviously wanted to exploit yesterdays (wrong) train an now are complaining while other users relied on the past announcements. I mean we had already a break of one week with the argument that everyone should be able to do a proper lineup, and now, after this week is over, there are still users that didn't get to manage to make their lineup which should have been done already the week before?!

Well I didn't try to exploit anything. I set the lineup last sunday before the crash, and it went bad. I set the lineup this morning and here it comes a new crash. There isn't any announcement that told me, to be safe set the lineup before sunday night, because there might be changes. I'm not complaining. But I can't understand your point. I'm setting the lineup in time and before the race start. Feel free to think that I'm trying to exploit circumstances, but I feel more free to think that now, games bugs, are hurting me and users in my situations.

I set up my line for TdF in the night and now I can't see my cyclists registred for this tour. Lol. It time to quit this game ? Its twice in this season I can't set up my cyclicts for tour because of bugs in the game and bad decisions of admins. The first time was for celtics crono and was reported and no decision of admins. And what do you do this time ? linkNo everybody has time to sit here 24h/day.

I set the lineup last sunday before the crash, and it went bad. I set the lineup this morning and here it comes a new crash. So you still have a lineup, right? That's not the point I'm talking about. Which is not really right. In fact there was an announcement that told you that this weekend no update is done and the Tour only was postponed because of an unavaiable site last week. Conclusion is, that we hadn't a free week just to buy new players or do some train or sth. else. The free week was only there to give all users an appropriate chance to set their lineup. So just a whole week to set one lousy lineup, nothing more. That's why I can't really understand that some of us are still complaining that they weren't able to make a lineup. They had already one week to do a lineup that should have been set already the week before. Don't get me wrong but waiting and waiting and waiting again just because a few users didn't made their lineup during a whole week isn't really satisfying.
