Game rules

BACK TO GAME

Before you can participate to this game, you need to be registered with Zweeler Ltd. Once registered for one of the games, you can play them all!!

After registration you can start creating your team(s). The teams can be submitted and changed until the start of the game on Sunday 5 February 2012 12:40.

Every player creates a team by selecting 25 riders. You can earn points with your own team based on the stage results, final classification in the grand and small tours, and the results for the classics and semi classics. When one of your riders becomes 9th in the Tour de France, he receives 35 points. When another rider of your team becomes 2nd in the Tour de France, you will receive another 100 points extra, etc.. This is how it works for all tours, stages, classics and semi classics.

You can make a team for the whole season, and thereby compete for the prizes in the General Classification, but you can also submit a team specifically for the matches for the 1st period. For the 1st period we have a special prize classification. It could be that your team, specifically made for the whole year, is so good that it will win a prize in the 1st period.

When the 1st period runs to an end (May 2012), we open the database to submit new teams for only the 2nd period. The teams that are submitted for the GC and for the 1st period can not be changed then!!

Moreover, you fill in the following predictions:

  • Winner Giro d'Italia
  • Winner Tour de France
  • Winner Vuelta a España

The riders are divided into groups and you can find them here below.

With all unforeseen circumstances Zweeler Ltd will make a decision.

  • group A: maximum 5
  • group B: maximum 5
  • group C: maximum 5
  • group D: maximum 5
  • group E: minimum 5 and maximum 25

The groups of the riders can be found through the link:riders

It is allowed to submit multiple teams per player. There is only 1 restriction: Different teams of the same participant need to differ by a minimum of 3 riders* from each other.

* The software will give a message when this rule is broken!

With all unforeseen circumstances, Zweeler Ltd. will make a decision.

The Team Time Trials do not count in the Cycling Year Game!
