Buhmann pleaaaaaaase, take that bug out.
May:
Dunkerque 10h: 6 teams
Dunkerque 16h: 9 teams
Grodow..: 12h: 4
Grodow..: 18h: 9
Grodow..: 23h: 3
Giro 15h: 9
Giro 24h: 8
Moscow 11: 9
Picardie 20h: 9
Picardie 24h: 9
California 10h: 7
California 15h: 7
Norway 13: 9
Bayern 9h: 7
Belgique 12h: 5
Belqique 24h: 8
16 stage races in May had less than 10 teams, so they got 70% (!!!!!) to 10% more in final GC money that they should have gotten. As you can see the times that profit most are: The morning, noon, afternoon and late evening. Evening and early evening get "outfinanced", which will make them suffer on the transfer market. Big experienced teams that start in the morning, afternoon etc profit most. They get shitloads of money, since they will be able to get more than the newcomers who start at the same time. Even without the bug that would be the case, but not to this degree.
June?
Same deal:
Dauphiné 11h 9 teams
Suisse 15h 8teams
Lux. 8h: 5
Lux 13h: 8
Lux 24h: 7
Sud 11h: 6
Sud 15h: 8
Sud 19h: 8
Already 8 stage races with the same deal. Will grow with Elektro/Slovenia again.
Yes, one problem is that there is always rather offered one or two editions too many, but the damn bug that we get 100% of the GC money is there anyway. It punishes the evening teams, it punishes the sprinter teams (unless it's a sprinter stage race, which happens too), it punishes less experienced teams. And in the end really fucks up the balance, I'm not even trying to calculate I much I gained from this bug in the last year... Andes, shit races in december etc.
Correct this bug!!! Now!
Kraftsystemrevision! Include the distance!
Basics reform: Give blue a chance!
Don't punish bugusers. We all have to use bugs, since most of them are declared as "features"!
