@mike : you picked the right thread, if you scroll a little to the previous posts you can see what ElGringo posted on January 8th ... and calling this a drastic change come on man, you can not be serious Look at the moment I can not predict when I will find some spare time (like today) for making changes on peloton, and it would be plain stupid to make these changes and only implement an test them only 3 months later (because it is very rare everything is spot on the first time). Edit : and if you really only fired your scout Last week (or even the week before) we will put him back in your service by next sunday, needless to say that goes for everybody who did so. Be aware, this is only when you fired the scout during this month !!!

Hi Schizm,
Nice change. Curious to see what it does. I fired my coach last week, so if you can put him back that would be great.

Ok,
first of all: this is a great change in the game
But .... any changes should be given warning in the tab 'Announcements' of the game. The same place you guy's announced the change. Because not everyone reads this forum. So for a lot of people 'announcements' is the only thing they get to read about the game. Big changes or small changes: all apply to this same rule to my opinion.
You don't have to warn people one hole season ahead but maybe a few weeks would be reasonable. For instance, chop a season in 4x 4 weeks. So warning in advance at least 4 weaks or something like that.
Hey, I'm only trying to point out where things could be done better. For the rest of this game I think you guy's are doing a very good job. plz don't be offended every time I point out to something.

Mike, I know you do mean it right. Keep in mind that there are two ways in saying things. 1. That is not right! You should do it like this. or 2. Ok, thanks a lot, is it possible next time to let us know before?
In both cases the message is the same, but said friendlier. Helder and Schizm don't have a lot of spare time, but always when something is changed and implement there is somebody complaining and telling us we should do it another way. That is not very motivating to improve something else.
Apart from that, I know I can be a complete not a very nice person sometimes, but Frank and Helder are two of the kindest people I know. They always take effort in compensating or helping managers. Your youthscout is already reinstated for free. It is just a matter of asking and both of them are always willing to help.
Don't do it for me, you can say anything to me, complain to me, call me an not a very nice person, I don't care.
But Frank and Helder do. They don't need to have compliments, a ribbon or a statue. But not nagging when something is improved helps.

Funny that this forum automatically changes the word a s s h o l e into not a very nice person.

We are trying to fix the game step by step in some free time, if someone want to blame someone, blame on me because I was the responsable asking Frank to make this change since this change didn't involve creating steps ins the code.
We want to change other thigs but we cannot promise that will be in 2 weeks or a month, is going to be in our free time so isn't easy to tell or annouce that we will do and after we don't do it.
Thys new messure was to give new teams a fair start because they cannot compete to other teams and this way they can decide if they train the riders or they sell to buy older ones. Still isn't easy to new teams to train because a trainer skill 15 cost 300k and for that we need also to change the starting money of the teams, we will decide between or 3 about this.
I can tell that I also propose other things to Frank and Arno and we will annouce if that have impact in the race engine.
We want to fix bugs and improve the game but with no date defined.
Sorry if this change afect your team, and like Frank said we can compensate if you fire scout during last month.

Just my two cents, but it could be a lot easier to just give them a trainer, with 15 on their skill of choice ... because then you also eliminate the chance they waste that money on a wrong choice in trainer (f.i. a trainer with all skills on 7 ), a mediocre cyclist with a big price tag, or even worse a youthscout !

Completly agree with you. Give money would be hte easy solution but they could use it in a bad way indeed.

As per the announcements can I have my youth scout back please? I fired him a few weeks ago...
Footnote to this is I just got promoted - 👍😉 However getting hammered and now bottom of division 2.1 with no money 💵🤕🚴♀️
So in summary like him back (youth scout) but not sure if I have enough money for back wages since sacking!

+1 for everyone who wants to make the game better and more excited. You have my support. Most of the times the managers who like a change doesn't respond. So i thought I will. Finaly I will hire a youthscout.

Perhaps it is the right step to hire a youth scout now?
