fab purist score put me up to 51st n purist league, well happy with that
Quintana is down as scoring 16, shouldn't it be 8 points(13th on stage) + 9 points (2nd GC) = 17?
Nobody cares
About you?...
I do...

Wow, i extended my lead to 11 points....its scary at the top, it makes you not know what to do
You're playing the perfect game!
The third of round of furiously clicking 'Refresh' has begun, fueled by the frustration that two people can see scores and standings, and I can't...
I desist, as the pain of carpal tunnet travels through my wrist...
I cry as I become disheartened that my flurry of clicks have had no effect on the processing speed of the game engine...
I weep openly, and as I become grateful for the opportunity to play this game, I am filled with the unique joy of realizing that a beautiful bond of friendship has blossomed between myself and a Scottish man I hardly knew a few years back... Yes, my dear Gkam, that is you...
And I'm so very happy... The first round of clicking has begun!
The second round, consisting of angry clicking, has begun...
No longer happy I retreat into a depressed mode and swear to never play this game again... But I know I lie... And suddenly... There it is... The beautiful game page... Thank you!
2,8,10,13,17
Edited seems I dropped Mas before the start
Ohhh bonus last man
Well I thought Id done badly, I brought in Gatto and Mondory, so ended up with 1,7,8, don't think it will keep me the lead though.
Going to keep my team the same for the next two stages I think
Jesus christ, what a disaster...
Swapped Pelucchi and Bouhanni for Moreno and Gilbert.
Bouhanni finishes one place above Moreno.
Pelucchi last man, Gilbert first man outside the points.
Boo!
Pelucchi last man in... A full 27' 02'' in arrears...
Not a total disaster as I had Matthews. Valverde did nothing but at least got 8 for the table. Got 5 for Bewley and Mas did very well and Wyss got a few as well. Pity I didn't put in Cadel rather than Gilbert, but had Gilbert in from the start for the TTT. Will now be dumped!
Probably won't lose ground with that lot and can have a decent team for tomorrow.
I'm half tempted to just dump my whole team and start again.
Purist day today
Just bouhanni in the top 20 for me
Just Matthews for me.
This is going terribly so far.
Here we go:
PV 1_65.png
There are going to be some very low scores today I'll bet.
My team is a bit different from most of you. 6% ramp for about 1.5k at the end. I don't think the sprinters will be there, more a day for Matthews, Gilbert (I hope) and Sagan, but is Sagan interested? I'm not sure so as he's expensive gone for Gatto instead as he's not too bad on a hillyish course either. Reckon Valverde might try and get some bonus seconds as well, so put him in as he's got some points too.
So
Valverde
Matthews
Gilbert
Boonen
Gatto
By chance got Mas and Wyss in the break. Could be a few points as Mas might get combative. Need to make up some points as well but targeted this stage from the beginning. Bring back the sprinters tomorrow.
Only one change today, Ciolek in for Kennaugh
