    To be honest if I just award myself 568.3 points and a mid-table finish the experience will be complete. Well done to ARobComp for his 87263087643087630 point win.

    reckon there's a fair chance that the points will miraculously appear on velogames, its just that no new entries or logins are currently available

    https://www.velogames.com/tour-de-france/2018/leaguescores.php?league=334415810

    we'll find out later this weekend

    "reckon there's a fair chance that the points will miraculously appear..."

    Here's hoping. The only problem is that although I have a team and I removed Froome from it I didn't link it to the league. I'll have to hope I can access it via my browser history later.

    I really didn't expect to win by so much. It's really just an honour. Thanks so much to IWRATS for the accolade.

    lets try the honour system, just score it yourself

    if the rules are the same as the giro rosa

    https://www.velogames.com/giro-rosa/2018/scores.php

    then i've got 760 points after Stage 4

    that's counting top 15 riders each daily stage, top 20 gc standings, and reduced points for team time trial stage 3

    can't be bothered doing daily points / mountains / young rider etc

    i see urchaidh picked froome and thomas for an enhanced double bill

    but perhaps lost the plot picking the entire dimension data team to make up the numbers

    Cav faded at the end today

    Can you still see the velogames teams? Or is urchaidh in Le tour as my rudimentary knowledge of French suggested he was dans Le huff?

    Quite a few of us picked Martin but not always the same one.

    I think Arobcomp's name should win.

    Many of us seem to have picked a team name hinting at perhaps some Illegality in team sky practices.?

    that's the one thing puzzles me about velogames system

    a measly 25 points if your boy is in yellow

    you get more for picking 10th place rider on the day's stage

    see all that "its coming home" bizness

    the world's first international football match took place in partick in 1872

    so there's "home" right there, up dumbarton road

    i rest my case

    @bax

    My brother used to live next door to that pitch. Rules of association football written by Scots to allow fair competition between malnourished and well-fed players. What ho?

    @bax, just put me somewhere near the bottom. I'm away from home and can't confirm but that's where they normally are.

    Chance of football coming home to the Dumbarton Rd very slight

    After Stage 10

    Bax - 1971 points

    tried to log on to pick Alaphillipe instead of Thomas first thing on the friday morning that it all went tits up on velogames, but alas it wasn't to be

    fortunately Groenewegen and Sagan have been doing the business
