New season; number of seatsThe new season of #PFCL is approaching rapidly and preparations are made to get everything ready. So far we have the confirmed participation of 25 veterans. Only @gainluna and@Mheuts75 have not responded to the calls, but all others have given the OK for another season. We also have 3 more participants that want to join in and that will make the total 28 confirmed and 2 pending = 30 in total. I think that will be the maximum for the PFCL to handle. First small changeWe will create the rounds by a tip a couple of you have made; divide the grand tours into 3 (7-race days) matchups in stead of 21 race days as 1 matchups. That will bring 6 more matchups and that's enough to accommodate the matchups for 29 players. If we get to 30 players, then i'll just add 2 more round by sizing down the bigger matchups. The price for winning a grand tour is still on the whole of the 3 weeks of course, that no different than before The draft jittersThe first messages have been sighted on Twitter about the first big task and grand kick-off... the draft! Most veterans remember the draft and the weeks running up to it will keep many manager up at night contemplating on the strategie, weather to go for the big hitters with the chance to get out bid, or go for the good second tier cyclist and grab them for a bargain, but one can never know how the others will think. Last year nobody bid in the first round of the draft on both Froome and Quintana, even Vanmarck and Gilbert were up for grabs. And then you have the mix with male and female cyclist. How much do you need to spend on which? Last year @padsbets had an absolute steal with Coryn RIVERA for $0.3, but who will be the next big upcoming talent that you can grab under the radar of everybody else? Second changesTo spice things up there will be 15 cyclists in a team. And last year we have a fixed number of male and female cyclist that needed to be in a team, but this year it will be up to you to decide the mixture of your team. I'm looking forward to an all women team from @JamieHaughey ;-) Also the budget for the draft will be $1500 and is somewhat bigger than last year, but this year bid wil be done without decimals, so only round numbers. Last thingsI will do a final call to our 2 missing veterans and hope to greet them as participants again and will then do a call to transfer the £15 to the PayPall account. Most of you have it from last year. For those who need it, please leave a DM on twitter to get it. Once the payment has been confirmed than your participation is guaranteed.
I will post the actual price pool after all the participants are in, but preliminary with 30 players it will be;
