It's a mistake, because Sastre has 500 points just for his GC ranking, while Scarponi has 439. |

Ferrari, Lastras and Nieve were all 2 pointers who got more than Kruijswijk but less than Dupont
So what should you look for when picking riders? From last year, I learned that GC guys were good picks, since they got huge points at the end, and daily points for being high on GC. But Lastras, Ferrari? Is it better to have guys who finish very high up on a couple of stages than a consistent GC guy getting into the top 10 in the end?
Edit: And WTF? Sastre is the 16th highest scorer. I hardly ever saw him in the race. Breakaway riders are obviously pretty good picks then.
Stages give 150, so three stages is equivalent to winning the overall.
So you want successful breakaway riders, especially early on, so that they get high up the GC for a few stages as well. That's how Nieve, Lastras, Le Mevel scored their points
Ferrari just sprinter very consistently yo top 5 placings

Congrats Alakagom, very wise picks.  Me, Alakagom and SportingNonsense have been very regular in these games...  ...as I get another 4th, but I don't mind, because of this:
Pinotti disappointed me. It had to be that crash... Le Mevel and Gadret were nice surprises. As was Kruijswijk. Contador, Nibali, Purito, Anton and Belletti scored what I expected. Roll on Tour de France! |

If we are comparing country scores, I came in second in Australia. 25th in the world too. I was 15th after one day, but fell down in the last couple of stages.

Thanks guys  Now that was a nice surprise, never seen that coming. Now let's hope my form continues to the next game, it's been massive pleasure to play this game. At the end I thought not picking Scarponi would eny my chances of victory, but Rodriguez best TT and Menchov fail saved me. |

I ended up 66th. Not bad since I chose, Wyss, Stetina and Brutt.
And I finished 19th in Canada, so thats pretty nice.

Lot of mistakes in the final score, at least compared to what it is said in the rules. I still don't understand why I got no points for Menchov GC for example. |

The points results were always full of mistakes... the final standing is just a rough estimation. |

Top 25, top 500 in the world and 12th in Canada. I'm very pleased. Bring on the TdF! |

I think we can say that we have a real good level here at PCM.Daily
My France classification is better than in our mini-league ^^ (12 --> 30) |
