Hi everybody,
we already have green light for the new season so the calendar is already on moving, thanks to Nikeboy, that made everyone happy for the new season.
Just for the record, the number of manageres is growing a litle and that is very good news, another thing is that we already have more then 50 managers online in the lunch period just to check the result.
I just set a poll to see the better day of the week to have a dayoff game because we cannot have stages every days of the week, please vote.
Lets put this excelent game again with more then 1000 managers. Spread the word

Another think,
like you all notice we tried to change every season some stages acording to real life and for this new season we already have stages ready from 2014 real world tour.
Thanks for the help Marco, manager of Tozzifan team.

Very good news !  What's the better day of the week to not have stage? I don't care so much , i wanted like is now, every week other day but if is compulsory a day i choose Sunday. Why? Because is better to have time from last stage to update to change some thing, to know how many merchandise to buy, etc |

Great news ! Thx 4 all the time you guys put in this game, to keep it running well.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
About the 'free day': why on a fixed day ? I liked the random free day. Gives more variation in the calendar.
For me, no need to change this.
But I have one suggestion:
this season, nine 3-day-tours were driven in one week, only 3 were spread over 2 weeks.
If a 3-day-Tour is driven on MO - TH - SA, its perfect for the fitness:
example: week 1 (MO - TH - SA) --> you drive till 60% fitness
week 2 --> fitness is 80%
week 3 --> fitness is 100% and you can allready reuse the rider
Handy, but there is no challenge.
If a 3-day is driven on FR - MO - TU, over 2 weeks:
example: week 1 (FR) --> you drive till 80% fitness - sunday update makes it 100% again
week 2 (MO - TU) --> you drive till 60% fitness
week 3 --> fitness is 80%
week 4 --> fitness is 100% and you can reuse the rider
This way, you lose your rider one more week, what makes the puzzle and choices more dificult = more challenge = more surprises = more fun
That's my experience in Division 4, maybe its difirent in the higher Divisions ? But I think the result is the same: Tours spread over 2 weeks makes you lose your rider one more week.

The free day isn't an objective, I just want to know the days that people like more for a day-off. Last season I put it random but this season I want to put it in only 2/3 days. Related to the calendar we try to make it more variable but somethimes isn't that easy. We will try to use new stages from season 2014 and we will have again a 4 days race, lets see. We are working on it and then I give more news |

I think monday is the best day to not have a race. The less active managers who can't be online sunday evening, don't need to be online to check if they didn't select an injured cyclist for monday. If the first day is tuesday, they have one more day to unselect the injured cyclists (that got injured during the sunday update).

Voted Saturday when the poll went up, just for the reason it's usually the least boring day of the week (at least during football season).
If we're being logical, Quantannnes reasoning makes far too much sense.

I agree with Quatannens, monday is the most logic,
Sunday is the second most logic :-)
