Conditions for the races

Rewards
Rainbow jersey for the road race winner.
Potential Bonus Races
There are potential bonus races in a similar format:
- TTT on the same day.
- European Championships the following week.
I cannot yet promise that these will happen, and even if they happen, unlikely that they happen bug-free
Correct me if I'm wrong
Alk, who programmed the whole thing, and all participants of the Test World Championship from a few weeks ago shall correct me, if any information from above is wrong or missing.
Q&A
Ask below

And find answers here
Can a rider ride the ITT and the Roadrace?
Yes.
Can a country with less than 9 riders ride the roadrace?
Yes.
Can i inscribe less than 9 riders even so my country has more than 9?
Yes.
Same for the ITT can i inscribe less than 4?
Yes.
Can i select one country for the ITT and switch afterwards to a country that is not picked already?
Not 100% sure, but in theory, yes. However, the ITT takes place after the road race and it's not yet decided if there will be races after ITT (TTT and ECs can be imagined but are not yet decided). Also, in theory, with 157 teams eligble vs. 82 countries, it is unlikely that there would be countries available after the ITT.
It should be only the first 20 or so that gets to choose, then open for everybody. That's how it used to be?
I don't know how it used to be. In this case all division 1-5 rankings are considered.
Is it possible to have the team selection take place only during the day?
Not possible in the way it is currently implemented as I can only set the time interval between teams (2h in this case) and the c4f day has 24h. Also, people are playing from different time zones (and with different daily routines obviously) so it would be hard to define what exactly would be 'during the day'.
Driver A has 350 power for the World Championship in the team. He gets 1000 power at the start of the World Championship.
How much power will he have the day after the World Championship?
700? 1000? Or depending on power consumption during the World Championship + Reg?
Should be 700.

Is it possible to have the team selection take place only during the day? It's not entirely fair if someone need to select at 2 a.m.

Energy of riders in WC is independent from regular races. In WC everybody starts with 1000, regular energy remains untouched.

So the rider gets double reg until the next real race? I mean reg for the day change to the WC day, and reg to the next day?
Additionally, in statistics, there are teams with 1,00000 as ranking number and a date to chose in December, is there a bug about the calculation? I guess the last date should be for all the rest the same?

The way the script worked is that only active teams are considered. Inactive teams don't qualify. (No clue if there is something missing there from the old Buhmann code or if it was always like this.)

My bad. I put the answers up there in Q&A because I knew there would be many Qs & As on this topic, so I thought good to collect them somewhere (they can go into the Manual, too, eventually).

Olso questions: 2
1) Covered Salary... cost salary above the manager money?
2) After road race: the rider gets 1000 energy for de TT, olso when his energy went to zero?

1) no salary, costs, prize money, etc. Just honour

2) all races are run independent from each other, everybody starts at 1000 in every race.

Hm, not sure, if we ever had a TTT with 4 riders, so the outcome will be undefined. Same btw applies to WC TTT in general, it's pretty much untested.

the real TTT is a 3 and 3 relais TTT with 3 males and 3 females, so its more or less Fantasy anyways no need to change it.
