Races and scoring:
- Only 8 of your riders will earn points each race block, meaning you have to select a team before the start of each month by making a post in this thread.
- If you do not have a team selected for a block, I will use the one of the previous block.
- The top 20 riders, team mates of the podium finishers and riders in the Break of the Day will score points according to the following table
| M | WT1 | WT2 | CT+ | CT1 | CT2 | | 1 | 250 | 150 | 120 | 100 | 80 | 60 | | 2 | 200 | 120 | 100 | 80 | 70 | 50 | | 3 | 160 | 100 | 80 | 70 | 60 | 40 | | 4 | 140 | 80 | 70 | 60 | 50 | 32 | | 5 | 120 | 70 | 60 | 51 | 42 | 26 | | 6 | 100 | 60 | 50 | 42 | 34 | 20 | | 7 | 90 | 50 | 40 | 34 | 26 | 18 | | 8 | 80 | 40 | 32 | 27 | 20 | 16 | | 9 | 70 | 30 | 25 | 20 | 16 | 14 | | 10 | 60 | 20 | 18 | 16 | 13 | 12 | | 11 | 50 | 18 | 16 | 12 | 10 | 10 | | 12 | 45 | 16 | 14 | 10 | 9 | 9 | | 13 | 40 | 14 | 12 | 9 | 8 | 8 | | 14 | 35 | 12 | 10 | 8 | 7 | 7 | | 15 | 30 | 10 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 6 | | 16 | 25 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 5 | | 17 | 20 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 4 | | 18 | 15 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 3 | | 19 | 10 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 2 | | 20 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1TM | 30 | 20 | 18 | 15 | 10 | 8 | | 2TM | 20 | 15 | 12 | 10 | 6 | 5 | | 3TM | 15 | 10 | 8 | 6 | 4 | 3 | | | | | | | | | BOTD | 10 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 |
Rules:
- There will be a draft with a randomly assigned order, it will use a serpentine system.
- Each round may or may not have a specific rule for your pick.
- Send in your picks by PM, deadline is the announced draft time.
- Make sure you have selected enough riders in case someone beats you to your pick.
- I will try to keep posting 2-3 rounds in advance so you don’t miss any rounds.
- To prove you have read the rules, send a PM to knockout saying you did.
- You can send in several rounds at a time and change them as much as you like.
- However, I will delete any previous PMs so make sure you latest PM has all the info I need.
- If your PM does not contain any valid riders, you will be skipped for the round.
- You can send in a new rider list after this, but it will only be applied after the round.
- Rules will be changed or added if I forgot something or didn’t think something through.
- There will be a total of 16 draft rounds, you do not have to use all your riders during the game.
Sign up:
Name:
Team name: Let’s do USA sport names this year to make clear who’s who, for example Ollfardh Red Sox, Roturn Lemmings, Sutty Sheep etc.
Team nation: Nation will be important later on, so if you go for something exotic, suffer the consequences

I'll have to skip this season as I'm on holiday for most of February and March. But I'll definitely follow all the resourceful picks and ingenious lineup decisions everyone likes to moan about afterwards

Calender is really screwing me over with a few races moving or disappearing. Will try to work out workable blocks and hope to start the draft next week.
