Double source for the points attribution, I don't know if it's 100% accurate but I think we can take this. Too bad there is nothing for the point-jerseys, though.

In addition to Ibanesto's Super Prestige for Classic Riders, I think we can calculate the rankings of the WT races during the whole year based on these figures. And then we can have a champion at the end of the year who can call himself The Number 1, and also a winner every month who earns the honor of designing a new jersey for me !

Extra rules:
¤ Counting only Group 1 races.
¤ Teamranking is based on all the points scored for the team by all the riders.

Good idea! And if you already have it in an Excel sheet, it might be even easy to have a team classification

Individual ranking is much better!! But yes i can add it.

But then the question is... How many rider per team ?

All ?
Top 3 ? which isnt enough because many teams have more leaders.
5 ? better but could be the same problem.

Funny to see who is nr 1...

NoPikouze wrote:But then the question is... How many rider per team ?

More would be better I think. Due to the shortened life of our riders, many of them won't even ride the whole year.

NoPikouze wrote:Funny to see who is nr 1...

That wasn't intentional

Palmares for January:
Riders: Max Krug (GUDE LAUNE) / Romulo Betancourt (Alkworld) / Hans Kraksler (luzense) / Dalibor Svoboda (Erzgebirge) / Mirjaqip Qoshqarbaev (NoPikouze) 106 pts
Team: Alkworld 183 pts

Not much to comment about it right now since there was only Tour down under where the winners of the Willunga Hill stage took the overall.


So my dear Alkworld, you win the right, honor and duty to design a new jersey for my incredible superteam ! But it has to look nice and sexy! I want a slim fit by the way. Don't make it look like you own ugly jerseys...

Team classification
Art. 2.10.004: The team ranking is obtained by adding up the points obtained by the five best riders in the individual
ranking.
The ranking of teams in the event of a tie will be determined by the place of their best rider in the individual ranking.

Rules for 2011. But Alk is right that our riders have shorter lives... so more probably is cool.

NoPikouze wrote:But it has to look nice and sexy! I want a slim fit by the way. Don't make it look like you own ugly jerseys...

I've got an idea ... What's your skin colour?

NoPik are you not going to include interested teams that were only in race 2 when there has been two races at the same time, because we were not ranked high enough to be in race 1 as that particular start time was oversubscribed?

FYI I was in race 2 at 2200 for Down Under. Though I didn't win it, due to some bad tactics.

No because of several reasons:
- too much work! Only for this TDU I had to copy 7 pages 5 times into excel !! Imagine what it'll be when there will be more than 1 WT races per month
- uncomparable groups. Its much easier to score un grp 2. Ok for a new team it's a nice result. But there are also some old/good teams who happen to ride in grp 2 races. Then the challenge is unbalanced. Anyway the good new teams should be able to join group 1 races quite quickly, so you will be counted from there on.

Nopik you wait the end of the month to make the RSF WT or you will make this at the end of TA?

End of TA for a first update, next one after the classics and catalunya.

I have points now, so I care.

Update March - After Paris-Nice & Tirreno-Adriatico

As we can see, none of the Tour Down Under winners was able to confirm this win on one of the next 2 stage races.
Mirjaqip takes the lead with a win and a second place.
Alkworld confirms his strength in the teamranking.

Next update after all the WT races of March, including the monthly and the yearly classifications.
With 3 classics counting for 100, 80 and 80 pts, and one stagerace for another 100 pts, it's still a veeeery open fight !

nice work nopik, appreciate it

nice work nopik, appreciate it
very very very very good,

Thanks guys, it's nice to read that

Some more comments:
Alkworld and CC Racing (and the Ape?) are of course expected at the top of the lists. They have huge teams, good for any profile, and score a lot.
On the other hand, Lausitz with Erixon does a great appearance. The guy won E3 and Gent-wevelgem (and also Het Nieuwsblad!). Very nice to see that, I hope he can keep going this way.
We also have Team ILD, completely unknown to me, who achieved the victory in Paris-Nice and the second place in Catalunya, both with his climber in the late afternoon. Is he really a great talent, or just another multi ? (yeah some easy trashtalking makes good PR)

We should also notice the complete absence of some supposedly big teams, worldclass managers if I dare to say so... Worldclass only when compared to amateur teams, obviously !

Much better thing than Estos Challenge, I never score there, grrrr, unfair!!!!

Here....What are you talking about, huge teams that can score everywhere? That wasn't necessary at all this month.

PN for guys with TT. Parallel TA good for climbers. Look at Alk, he scored in PN, he would have scored MUCH less in TA. Same for me the opposite way
Catalunya for climbers with some sort of a team. Parallel E3+GW. Again, Alk + Ape rode the one where they score a lot. In the other one they both would have scored less. CC, ok, he is the most allround team of the 3, clearly.

This month was perfect for hiding your weaknesses... See Ape, right now the team is: 3 climbers and Alighieri. Used the 3 climbers well, one first place and 2 second places, plus a lucky, but not lucky enough punch with Yrjönpoika and I'm second for the month. Next month, which is April in case somebody forgot, will be much harder to do that.


Flanders
Pais Vasco
Roubaix
Amstel
Flèche
LBL
Romandie

No parallel stuff. And the ape will have much more trouble being in the top 5 of the month than in march. The 2 tours are not for pure climbers, Flèche is for better climbers, the other one day races are +/- a lottery with my team... if all goes perfectly I can win all 4 of them. Much more likely is that I'll end up in the top 5 in one, top 10 another, top 15 another and top 20 in the last one...I have leader without a team for Flanders, not really sure what I have for Roubaix actually , Amstel don't care on principle, LBL I have a good team without a leader... And unless I'm really really lucky I won't be able to hide that weakness.
Similar for Alk.. .Topfavorite in Flanders, at least co-favorite in Roubaix. In need of a lucky punch in Amstel, LBL, basically a huge outsider in Flèche. Pais Vasco probably too hard for Cervantes, Romandie unclear, might fit better, but there too, more likely a placement then the win. Like the ape he is fairly specialized too right now, opposite direction, but like the ape he will need luck or great riding to score lots and lots of points. He might still be in the top 3 of points in April, but mostly thanks to big scores in Flanders-Roubaix. Then some placements later on. But for a huge point tally, he too needs luck and great riding. Which this month wasn't needed.... see the ape. Luck ok, was there, but great riding certainly wasn't seen this month... I think I did something like 2 good races this month, for the rest it was more "look how bad I am".... was still enough to score like I did. The riders were good enough for that. Not in April.

Vinokourov took the lead from Mirjaqip after a disappointing classic-season, and also some failures on the 1-week tours. There are also a lot of other people who joined the fight, check it out!
In the team fight, CC Racing also took over the lead from Alkworld, and with a 266 points gap ! Impressive. The rest of the teams is really far behind those two.
In May, there will only be one race to ride : the GIRO ! These were the last classics for the moment, now we will ride the serious tours, no more training races, let's have a nice fight !

NB: I made longer lists for the overall classification.

Was a nice spring - but now i'm out of here. No Giro, no points. Chance for Mirjaqip to strike back. Anyway, he will never become as great as Zhasulan! Maybe as okay as Shamshi... but not more

Fortunately, NoPik makes the list longer, otherwise, nobody will understand why I'm 3rd in the team ranking this month ^^

genial NoPik!!!
