How is extending the deadline fair on those who got their transfers in?
I could just pick the guys in the break now...
Yeah but just don't
It's the ToC, not the Giro, there's no major prizes, it's just for fun. I made my transfers this morning, I couldn't care less. I'd rather everyone have it fair and be able to make their transfers.
full disclosure:
what happened was that we moved the game over to a new server. two servers in fact: one for the game and one for the database.
that all worked fine but for some reason the RAID controller sorting all the data onto the four discs in the server went haywire and screwed it all up in a way that wasn't recoverable. that's unusual to the point where the tech guy said he'd never seen it before, lucky old us.
the new server's a stopgap ahead of us running two front end servers, load balanced and failed over so that if one breaks the other will still work. that should be up and running next week. typically this failure would have gone unnoticed if it had just waited a few days...
anyway, that's all for now. i'm writing this from a car park somewhere outside newtown in mid wales where i've been sat for the last 2hrs trying to sort it all out. time for wine i think.
Well done Dave. Don't drink too much. You might mess up your transfers. LOL

If the servers are in Wales......Blame the sheep, nothing else for it
Still can't get on to it
http://109.104.88.11/transfers - This is the link you need
I can't access the game at all
i still cant get on
still cant access game.
used the supplied link, but cant request a forgotten password, says access DENIED!!!
Hippy I was not able to access via the normal link but was able to get in via http://109.104.88.11
Haven't tried it yet tho.
Yep access looks like it is restored for me
Still knackered for me
Worked for me a few minutes ago and got my transfers in for GdI. I think about 10mins until transfer deadline
Ha Ha ! class mate
you could do, not a day to rely on points from riders in the break though i don't think
Phew - thanks for the link
Now now, thats just giving away my Grand Tour tactics
I tried to do transfers at work but was denied access as it detected the server as a porn site. Talk about getting racy!
Cambat, it is porn, except from a cyclist's perspective
Maybe Dave should let us do our transfers after the end of the stage? Just a thought....
The deadline was 7pm I think, they did say to me on twitter, they will extend the deadline if they get it back up.
I'm not sure when the stage starts though.
Yep, looks like its all gone pear shaped. Anyone know what the deadline is as I don't particularly want to spend every 10mins checking it out. Not exactly a good Friday night in.
Still can't log in
Gkam - thats not like you - you are normally so switched on about your team
I can give you a list of my planned transfers right to the end of the Giro
But last weekend and ended up in hospital screwed with my time to plan the ToC stages, so playing it on the hop
Aye, i read you were in hozzie hope your doing better mate.
I remember about 3 riders in my team, LL Sanchez, Hanson and TJ, I "might" have put Nibali in lastnight/this morning, but cant remember. I have more important things to be thinking of at the moment.
SO its not as simple as listing who you want to switch. Then without value's its harder. Although I can tell you anyone's value as i have a list of ALL riders in the game with their value
But in case, I'll have the dream team - the penalty points for today, because thats who i would have picked anyways
