Giro D'Italia 2014 - Pick Three Italians

by Ghedebrav
Sat, May 03, 2014 20:12
84

We'd better get this underway... in the wise words of drheaton, the rules:

Pick three Italians for 50 credits or less, combined fantasy score at the end of the race wins. Only riders making it to the end of the race count, if your's quits mid race, they get no points

I'll also add in an additional caveat; where there are two teams the same, the tie-breaker is who entered their team first. The teams are:

Ghedebrav: Pozzovivo, Cataldo, Buongiorno 103
Dave Atkinson: Pozzovivo, Colbrelli, Frapporti
STEVESPRO: Paolini, Malori, Appollonio
TERatcliffe26: Pozzovivo, Scarponi, Barbin
Enrique: Pozzovivo, Scarponi, Colli
stevemarks: Aru, Viviani, Ponzi

VVV73: : Pozzovivo, Scarponi, Alafaci

Ghedebrav how you getting on with this mate?

Wishing I'd never volunteered to do it! Going through each stage now. Scores & rankings should be up tomorrow.

Amazingly only one person picked Ulissi...

Also, I might still have a spreadsheet kicking around from last year if you want it. I thought I'd posted a link to it on dropbox previously but can't for the life of me find it.

EDIT: Hurrah, found it:

http://road.cc/content/forum/107750-running-pick-three-competition

AWESOMES x2 on both things, thank you.

And apologies to all for not having this sorted yet; been a bit hectic at work, busy all weekend with general family doings plus standard looking after of 9-month-old baby have all been a major drag on time.

Going to be tricky for myself to top it, as other guys have Aru and Pozzovivo,
I'll need Viviani to take the final flat stage to give myself a hope.
Or have Rosa, Gatto and Malacarne to drop out 3

Ahem...

I assume after today it's those who have Pozzovivo and Aru, unless Viviani wins on Sunday 24

Even if he did, I doubt it would be enough, presuming Pozzovivo and Aru will finish at least top 15 tomorrow and continue to score classification points.

Did I hear today Locatelli had been replaced?

Just seen this (thanks chrisdstripes) - any chance of putting in Malacarne instead of Locatelli (I understand with the deadline etc if you can't)? Please... 105

What can I say, I tend to ignore your comments so never even saw that one.

It's not against the rules (assuming we both win then it goes to a coin toss) but if it's a problem I'm happy to swap out Colli for Bandiera which I think makes it a unique trio.

The rule I popped in the OP was that in case of tie it came down to who entered their team first. I didn't realise there was already a rule for this?

Updated with teams in OP. If you MUST make a change, then add it below, don't edit your post. Ta!

Let's hope Pozzovivo doesn't pull out at the last minute, eh?!
