Yep, and it was supposed to be a tour.
Beside that: I think only 2 editions of britain are too low with only Vuelta parallel. We have 4 parallel tours at start of vuelta, so why not continue with that?

I'm also for it, cause it seems to be a staple in RSFs history. But it clashes with the WC - is there a solution to this?

For me, this is a long-standing issue, as I complained about Langkawi in the past. Langkawi has some strong teams, and riding outside Europe when possible would be nice. Now we have an additional issue with Cro Race. So my question would be if we could do WC in addition to normal races instead of reserving one day for it. In this case, we could do TT WC on the correct day as well. From what Alk said in the past, I think it should be possible to start everybody at 1000 for WC, but do not write the energy after the race to the database. In this case, all we should do is avoid races at the same time as the WC races. The addicts are happy without making illegal multis; we have a nice WC, and we can ride real tours many managers will want to ride.

Tough first half of month for nightime players.
Britain h21
Toscana Quebec and Memorial Pantani h 21
Giro D'abruzzo h20
I'm cool with luxembourg at h22 but it's the 16th of the month!
Would be happy to have at least the 3 classics at h22
Than if is truly possible to ride another tour during the WC I think everyone would apreciate

Speaking of times, the late evening already has much better races in August than the 19/20 h slot. I had to go late for Pologne and skipped Norway partially for this reason. The only 20 h Tour is Germany, which is less important. Next month, again only a small tour (Abruzzo) is planned at 20 h. 19 h, nothing again. Could we do some early evening races at 19 h as well? Next month, Luxembourg is an option. It seems to be common practice to always give the middle slot in the evening to the smaller race if there are two evening editions for the bigger race and one for the smaller. I think we should vary it a bit more.

Ofc this is way too low, especially for a cat.3 and 5 days tour. 3 editions would have been way better with one for morning guys. And except the two first days , this is the only tour in parallel of Vuelta.
And for the Croatian Tour, it's not like we have a lot of solutions for it... Radu's one, moving Croatian 1 day earlier etc etc..

If noone is alrdy doing it, I will do Tour of Britain -> I still would like to see more than 2 editions for it, same as for Benelux/Deutschland.
We can also see currently that the parallel tours like Benelux have lot of participation, so at least +1 edition in the morning would make sense.

Benelux has 11 in the morning and 8 in the afternoon. Wouldn't call that "a lot"

Benelux in the evening has 15 Teams and the D-Tour 10 Teams, that are 43 Teams in four little Tours.
I agree, that we should have 3 editions of the Tour of Britain!

in the morning and afternoon, the participation is low, evening is another topic. From my perspectice, cutting it in morning or afternoon would be ok. Nobody ever proposed an additional time (just an additional edition) but someone stated that the participation is good while at that point it was rather low (for the 2 already started editions).
It's a fact, that it is currently not possible to ride WC and other races on the same day. To my knowledge, it is still not even possible to sell a rider on that day. So IMO its not a topic of calendar planning but feature request.

Did he say that it is already possible or that it is possible in the future (because of the way it is implemented in the new version)?

For testing the system, I am of course ok with some earlier Fantasy World Championship (e.g. in March, at lower category).
I think we can do it even in parallel to the regular races, i.e. even on the same day of another race (and riders could take part in both). And as said, we don't need to decide now already, how many of them we want per year.

Ok looks like I missed this discussion then (or forgot this info from Alk). Still would be necessary for the first time for Alk to be online.
If we want to discuss the topic in general, I am undecided if I like the idea of WC parallel to races. I understand that a day with one WC race is not very gifting, on the otherside its not really realistic (but the race selection that can be taken in general is not). So would be fine if with it, but would also decrease the prestige of the real WC race in-game imo (in the end its calendar planners choice anyways, putting another stage race not necessarily JUST an issue of having the WC there)
