Ab my reaction has nothing to do with how you guys run the game. It is the way he formulated his sentence towards Toss. Just forget about it, doesnt matter

sorry ElGringo, but this sounds rather arrogant to me to be honest. Take it or leave it, we are the boss!!!

Congrats Mike
Quiller, why do you play renuart on fitness? He is 31 and you have nothing to win anymore? Dont really get it to be honest. I would make him stronger and get him ready for next season

well... I had my doubts about reacting to this, but I am so fed up with this... Froment, was sold a few weeks ago. Mood reset, one week later his salary is 500$!!!! higher but his mood rised as well. My question, how?
I am so frustrated/surprised that no one even reacts to this. What do we all think? In flemish we say: don't wake up a sleeping dog. I am still thinking, am I really the only one who noticed this or do other players keep their mouth shut, afraid for negative comments or reactions?
Everybody plays this game the way he wants to, but I feel that I am playing against competitors that are unable to beat. And yes, I don't spend that many hours on peloton as others (sorry, got a family, company, sports), so I am unable to try and figure out a way to find a better mood-wage ratio. But still. In my division, Cavaco from semtex, biggest mountain talent at the moment, nearly 70k wage/week. Is this fair? Obvious mike doesn't know the trick either.
Like polly says, reading this felt quite as a relief, but still doesn't solve the problem. If I offend people with this then I am really sorry. But this is how I feel at this moment. There are certain elements in this game that need to be redone to keep it fair for everyone.
Thnx for opening this post, Ab. Appreciate this

but nearly 70k wage, damn... That's a lot. On year base (season), he asks moren then a million, not even talking about bonuses. Can you cover that with prize money Mike?
Nevertheless, he is an awesome cyclist. If you might sell him, he will make you rich :-)

about Clementino, he used to be a well skilled all rounder, perfect tour guy, but time has taken over. His skills are not that impressive anymore. So after the giro, where he ended 5th, I decided to go for a stage win in TdF and use him in la vuelta again. No GC for me in TdF, I went for stage wins and I got 3 of them. The only thing I am doubting about now is the mountain jersey. I will try and keep that away from cavaco, but it will be a close one. Heavy stage, cavaco still left with 85% fitness in a race that suits him perfect. I hope Dodos his points advantage will be enough. I expect Cavaco at 90%, so that he will be ready for stage1 in La Vuelta. Good thing is, he is 34. So he won't get much better anymore:-) I still think that if you used him better at the beginning of the season, you would have been in the top2 Mike.
About the u21 races. I don't get it either. I can't get the engine analyzed well enough to make the right choices. So unpredictable. I don't mind the results anymore. Sometimes they are better as expected, sometimes I'm totally wrong and end up in the back with a perfect balanced rider. Oh well... that's part of the game I guess?

the TT's in this TdF are not suited for Baumann. He is more a flatter. Therefore not aiming for stage win with him. I was with niculaie, and succeeded. Had some fear because bosko had the same idea with Cormier, happy I could finish it off in the final sprint. Tomorrow it's up to Dodos and clementino. See what they can make of this tour. We'll see what is left next week

thnx for all the congratulations guys
I try to follow peloton a bit, but it's from the side at the moment. Just setting my team and that's it. I noticed that Cavaco won the giro, it surprised me. This was not a real mountain edition.
Happy with the stage win today in Suisse, surprising. I assume a good GC will be the reward. If I looked a little closer yesterday I had to give Veller some extra energy and maybe things where different now. But anyway, no complaints here.
Hope to be more active soon
edit: mike I see you had to renew Cavaco his contract, is the wage thing still trending? +60k/week, it's ridiculous while some cyclists in div 1.1 do it with half of it

And i forgot to set tactics for today’s race. Stupid. There goes my ambition.
But from the other side, i become dad for the 2nd time:-) peloton is the least of my worries at the moment:D

ah, joop, doesn't say anything at all. It's how they are used in the teams. Niculaie won yesterday, he is one year younger but has 48 skill points. Just saying:-) Congrats with kuzemchak btw, I hope you can make a Cavaco out of him. Curious to see how his mountain will develop and who will come out as the better one (Cardoso or Kuzemchak).
I will go for the podium in this giro. Dont know how far I can get, 6 minutes is a lot, but still. Now pulling back would be a bit foolish, no? Mike is Cavaco participating in TdF?

to be honest Ab, I play this game for several years now, and I still don't 100% get the engine. I even think that if you simulate a race 2 times with the exact same settings, you get different results... something like a variable parameter we don't know off?
I already broke my head multiple times over this helper thing, I still can't give you a 100% suited answer:s

watch crusaders and Devos from Bardet, they will receive fitness training on Sunday. Don't know much about their skills, they don't seem impressive to be honest. I hoped Clementino would be much further behind, they would make things much easier to decide:-) I imagine you have the same with Cavaco? So tomorrow will be a key stage for me. If Clementino stays at the same gap, or wins time back, then I might go for a good GC. I always have the TT left.
Same for the YJ, tomorrow we will be wiser

congrats bosko, epic battle:-) Missed it by an inch. I noticed Kortland his skills, idd, he lacks flat. In 2nd you dont get away with that anymore:-D Why do you sell keignaert, no FA on mountain I suppose? He is well trained, so it looks to me at least
