I anycase, things changing all the time with this Lampre business.
Donkey man dropped.
Can confirm Cack's last man isn't the very useful Ben Hermans, but the incredibly anonymous Bjørn Selander.
Q Step confirm Chicci and Reda.

my teams weren't showing up there. probably the Team Tiger-Nolte for a good reason (no one scored poiints) but the other team of mine should have had 38 points

i've reset the options for them to show. hopefully it'll work!

It'll show up tomorrow Nolte when I do the next update. You need to set your mini-league each race I think.

I'm thinking that this format is the way to go.  Multiple team picks detract from fair competition but would be fun to play around with I suppose.  FP's are good for getting fully engaged in the race, but it gets time consuming and when all the picks are made there isn't a whole lot of difference between everyone elses'.  Sure, it's the nature of the beast and it's all just for fun anyway.  Research it, pick 'em, forget it and enjoy the rest of the race for me.

It's nice to see the variety of different teams you can pick: national teams, cheap teams, dirty teams

I spoke to Noel about awarding points and he said

Quote:
I decided to award points today but not tomorrow as I think that will match more closely what the riders will do. A very sad day indeed.
