No, I did not.
I merely noted that the stage needed fixing, because the cobbles were missing.

Afaik you said that you tested it and that there clearly were no cobbles in the race  At least I got the impression that it was just a bug on the profile, and I think I wasn't the only one. Not that it matters though.

But I just tested it, and theres no cobbles anywhere. Some stage making is clearly required to fix that
How does that get interpreted in any other way than I need to use stage making to add cobbles in? If I wanted no cobbles, then I wouldnt need to fix anything would I

Fix the profile so that people don't think it's a cobbled race?
thinking exactly the other way around ftw

Thinking logically ftw:
I picked the calendar based on profiles. So I picked Avila because of its cobbled profile.
Why would I suddenly want it not to be cobbles?

Okay, you got a point there. I think the combination of Spain and cobbles is just too uncommon

Some of you will receive later a PM asking you to change your calendar choices.
All PCT entries are in, while 4 CTs are missing. But of those 4, Onitsuka-ANZ dont really count anymore, while Ecopetrol also seem to have disappeared.
In total, 24 C1 and HC races will have a full selection of 20 riders. The problem is that 9 of the C1 ones have more than 20 teams interested - one race had 26 teams apply! (21 of those 26 were PCT)
The most popular C2 race has so far had 19 teams apply.

It is a real pity if two of the more exotic teams miss out. Especially considering the fact that we have lacked a bit "spice" from Latin America that Ecopetrol easily could have filled.
Looking forward to hear which races were oversubscriped, and also eager to see if any race have just a few teams participating. |

I like Ecopetrol. I hope they make a miraculous comeback! Would be a shame if they missed out on the season.

I have the feeling that Ecopetrol's ragequit has something to do with Duque. He got overbid less than an hour before the deadline, checked the forum one hour later and never got on again.
@SN, out of interest, what's the lowest number of subscriptions for a race?

If that is the case Vien, then the game is better without him

The smallest field for a race will be 7 teams

Ill provide some race names to the stats once race planners have been completed. No more hints before then, as its such an important part to race planning deciding where to send your leaders - would make it easy if you knew which races will have less competition!
