Just 1,2,7 for me today but I suspect today will be very low scoring for most.

I was looking at the 'Upcoming Races'and noted that the 'Transfer Deadlines' for the Tour of Turkey were:

Presidential tour of Turkey Alanya - Antalya Mon 27 Apr 0800
0d 14h
Presidential tour of Turkey Kemer - Elmali Tue 28 Apr 0800
1d 14h
Presidential tour of Turkey Fethiye - Marmaris Wed 29 Apr 0800
2d 14h
Presidential tour of Turkey Mugla - Pamukkale Thu 30 Apr 0800
3d 14h
Presidential tour of Turkey Denizli - Selcuk Fri 01 May 0800
4d 14h
Presidential tour of Turkey Selcuk - Izmir Sat 02 May 0800
5d 14h
Presidential tour of Turkey Istanbul - Istanbul Sun 03 May 0800
6d 14h

I know it's petty, but, in a Purist competition the 'Transfer Deadline'is the date the competition starts, right?... So?...  45 I believe we should either rename the column header or change the dates for people who get easily confused like me...  7

But a nice competition to have!  1

A stage still has to have a deadline though, as its is separate to what stops you from making transfers (so I believe)

This is pure semantics, which I admittedly enjoy, but, technically speaking, a Purist competition, only has 1 deadline, at the competition start... There are no transfers to be made later... I don't know... It just seems to my brain we should use other terminology, but what?...  7 I know it's not important, at least not as important as the Giro!  1 Or, maybe getting the Tour de Romandie on the calendar!  1 Or getting a sneak peak at the rider values for the Giro!  1 Or getting all rider scores from the Spring Classics competition!  1 Could you do that for me TER?  8 Either dump them on the forum or email me?... I'd love it!  1

1,2,4,6 for me, and my other 4 aren't sprinters. I wonder if Marczynski got added to the game in the end? Would've preferred him to Rebellin but he wasn't listed when I picked my team. Other 3 are Sepulveda, Battaglin and Lopez, I have been playing quite risky this season!
