"Dagobert Duck" (he only is in germany called this way) is Scrooge McDuck in english and Tio Gilito in spanish. Donald isn't called Donaldo Pato or Donaldo Duck in spanish, he's called El Pato Donald. I guess, here is enough difference and i found two authentic but a bit funny names. with kind rega...

I guess he is way gone passed the "don't worry about it" phase. It seems Taka is living rent free in his head and pushing this thread is more like a futile chase for retaliation and "seeking justice". Why else would you bring up this thing when Taka is rather quiet and poke the bear? Not to say that...

For example: Jan Ulrich is ok, Jan Ullrich isn't. Even if the name Ullrich would exist as a surname, it is clear that this ride is a clone of Jan Ulrich. Other way around. The former cyclist's name is: Jan Ullrich! So what FL (FLL) was trying to say is the opposite of what he said. Jan Ullrich ok. ...

For example: Jan Ulrich is ok, Jan Ullrich isn't. Even if the name Ullrich would exist as a surname, it is clear that this ride is a clone of Jan Ulrich. Here I don't really follow the reasoning. If we assume Ullrich is a valid German name, why shouldn't Jan Ullrich be allowed when Jan Ulrich is? E...

Next race: Milano - Torino, Wednesday 18 March 2026 Milano - Torino is called a "semi"-classic in the internet. Well, it's not part of the World Tour which leads to that description I guess. But it's part of the UCI ProSeries. And more important: Milano - Torino is the oldest classic race in the wor...

Ola well since the name genovezi doesnt seem to exist to begin with Alesandro Ginovezi looks like a clone of an existing person Alessandro Genovesi and with Joao Alreida its obviously a clone of João Almeida Hi, question for NC here; does the clone argument only apply to existing riders? F.e. I rem...

Thanks to Alkworld, the Team FL riders were able to start in Siena, right on time. In the end, 2 secs were missing for the Fürst to garnish it, while Uchiha and his team mates showed, how it's done. Very interesting edition, very deserved winner at 21h. Here the full list of winners for this year's ...

What about marking team names in red color which are not fully inscribed to race? so if there is one rider missing you see it directly.

after yesterday: +1

It seems something went wrong with the inscription for 21h... I was signed up for the race and now I see that I am not in the race... Now my riders don't know what to do in Siena on a Saturday evening. Any advice where to go to forget about all of this?

We are ready for Strade and very curious who will be second behind Kerken! Lineup: #1 Thibault Kerken, leader #2 Magnus Jensen, co-leader #3 Domingo Cruz, helper #4 Joseph Kawzyk, helper #5 Antonio Diego, helper #6 Loïc Callard, helper #7 Cesare Baddetti, helper #8 Dave Barlington, helper #9 Drury ...

The Team FL line-up (most likely) for Saturday (don't know if 9h or 21h yes): The unholy trinity: The Fürst and the Devil will be leading the team. But be aware, in their shadow, firestarter Manni Matt is waiting for his chances. The acquiescent acolytes: Felikss Fokerots, Ricardo Rocha and Santiago...

Next classic to come: Strade Bianche ("White Roads"). The name stems from the historic white gravel roads in the Crete Senesi, which are a defining feature of the race. It's one of the younger classics in spring, if not the youngest. First held in 2007 (as a professional race, before that, it was cr...

Opening weekend is over, we get 4 new Omloop winners! 28.02.2026: Omloop Het Niewsblad (Cat. 4) 10h - Seijuro Akashi (Pokemonogatari) 14h - Zhansultan Dosmagambetov (Tukhtahuaev) 18h - Akram Foustane (Elaska) 21h - Reynaldo Vera (RC Hachen) Let's see who we got there: Akashi was foretold, the rest n...

A lot of this sounds like making the game even more complex. Although it might get more realistic, I don't know how playable it still will be. So before making the game more complex, I would like to have better known current bugs fixed first in my opinion, f.e. downhill pavé, climbs over 15%, etc. M...

Not 100% sure about classification of those. Tenbosse could be 4 but was even 6 in the past in some races, so opted for 5. - Eikenberg: https://climbfinder.com/de/anstiege/eikenberg 6% looks fine for 1 km and the fact that it gets as steep as 9.4% on its steepest parts. Was a 6% with ** last year a...

The Team FL line up for Omloop is starting to form: The pavé pack: Ricardo Rocha, Rik Ribbens and Wim Wijkstra I guess one of these will be captain, although Wim looks more like a pavé key helper than the rider that is able to survive the flanders hills. The fast "flatties": Santiago Souberbielle, U...

So, Omloop. To reduce the waiting time a bit, here are some infos about the race, the copy cat race in Belgium and the real, ingame race: Originally, the race was called Omloop van Vlaanderen, when it was founded in 1945, changing the name two years later to Omloop Het Volk, representing the Newspap...

Technically, it's still winter. But who cares! The sun is shining, it has two digit temperatures. At least in Liechtenstein, where the sun shines out the people's arses. And as they say in Australia: I wish I was a glowworm a glowworm's never glum 'cos how can you be grumpy when the sun shines out y...

Es ist eine sehr starke Beleidigung So I guess thats pretty serious? If it really means "vaffanculo", it is an insult or at least offensive language, but is it that serious or such a strong insult? I wouldn't say it is as serious as "Wichser" for example, but who am I to judge. In German, I would r...

As it has not been designed yet: Omloop has some minor changes and is around 10 km longer. Infos available here: - https://www.omloophetnieuwsblad.be/en/race/elite-men/race-info and a good overview about the changes here: - https://www.cyclingnews.com/pro-cycling/races/omloop-het-nieuwsblad-2026-rou...

A conundrum. Either we give the power to the people (voting) or have a dictator (The Fürst). Liechtenstein solved the issue by having two sovereigns: the people and the Fürst. Don't know if that's better, but I agree, Alex would have been a worthy Team FL rider of the year. I guess sometimes the peo...

We're coming for The Fürst! But reports said, the team will be working hard to hire Fürchtegott Fürst to be part of the technical team after he retires. "Should not be a problem to convince the poor Liechtenstein team to let him go, in case they still want him after retirement." said Fabrizio. I ca...

Not sure why somebody living in a monarchy would think asking the people is a good idea.

Just to let them think they have a say in it too, somehow... you know... that they feel included. The result would have been "correct" anyway *looksaroundifthefürstisbehindme*.

The Fürst rider of the year 2025 It was a vote among The Fürst and Alex Alailefaleula. Still active, Fürchtegott won the duel with more than 3/4 of all votes. The Team FL headquarters stayed quiet for some time when the vote for Team FL rider of the year 2025 started. Everybody was in fear that the...

Happy Birthday! As I've never experienced Anton Hasler myself, only heared the legends, I've chosen the following riders: - Edgar Schmalztorus: "The Joggeli Rapper! This motherfucker just can't be denied in this decision!" - Raffael Kämpfer - Yuri Gamov: "GAM OVer ;)" - unkown source from Liechtenst...
