Why are you guys all switching to my outsider pick?
Thought I had the possibility to make up for some loses. 🤣🤣🤣The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Because he was in the breakaway and my original pick, De Gendt, wasn't!pblakeney said:Why are you guys all switching to my outsider pick?

He wasn't really a complete outsider for a breakaway win, had reasonable odds (for a stage like this anyway, wide open) and mentioned in previews as a potential winner from the break.0 -
I have a second pick too. Can I choose him if he wins?bobmcstuff said:

Sorry but I think entries should close at or before the flag goes down.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

I'd not disagree with changing it, but the rules are the rules. Its probably moot anyway as it's not looking promising for the break right now.pblakeney said:

It's always very clearly been 12 - it's fair for everyone.pblakeney said:

Flag drop would be different every day which would make things more complicated for the scorers (having scored GTs and 1 week races myself), who are donating quite a lot of their own time to what is a rather dull manual data entry task. It would also result in quite a few people missing the time cuts each day on stages with early starts.
As above though it is probably moot this time. I don't think I've ever had PTP success by waiting for the break in any case... usually just dooms them to getting caught apparently!0 -
The 12 start is fair, normally.
This is not normal as the Giro is starting early due to the late season start, should be 11:00 for this one. Rules are rules but it's not in the spirit IMO.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Would be fine by me - so long as it is easy to implement and fair for everyone. It's up to red.rider though as ultimately he is dealing with it.
I know we've sometimes varied cutoffs, usually for late starts, but it's been left up to the scorer to decide to do that or not.
Might be relevant for the Vuelta, what's the effect of the clocks changing... does Spain change at the same time??0 -
Good questions which should be addressed before the start.bobmcstuff said:Would be fine by me - so long as it is easy to implement and fair for everyone. It's up to red.rider though as ultimately he is dealing with it.

I'd point to the OP that says "Note that some of the longer stages start as early as 09:15, so lots of chance for in-play betting."0
