Ridersite Racing - Fantasy Road Race (2012)

#1 Post by D-Rider » Thu Feb 09, 2012 3:25 pm

Most forums seem to have their own Fantasy Road Race Private League within the MCN Fantasy Road Race game and Ridersite is no exception. We are racing again in 2012

If you're up to speed with it all then the important info is:
  • League Name: Ridersite Racing
    League PIN: 770
Leader Board at the close of racing for 2012
  • Image
For Those That Are New To This:
  • What is Fantasy Road Race?
    • Fantasy Road race is a bit of fun that allows you to become the manager of a motorcycle road race super-team - with 2 riders in each of MotoGP, World Superbike and British Superbike.
      You get to choose your team members from the real stars (and no-hopers) that actually compete in these championships and you score the points that the riders accumulate.
      You do have to work within a budget of £10 million pounds (and you don't get to keep the change).

      At certain points in the season you are able to mix your team up a bit - hiring and firing your riders.
    Scoring Points:
    • Image

    How Do I Sign Up to Play? Does It Cost Me Anything?
    • Only hours of sleepless nights pondering whether you've made the right choices - the game is FREE to play
    What Is A Private League?
    • Anyone can start a private league - they are typically groups of friends / forum members that wish to play against each other. The person who starts the league controls who joins it (in our case, that's me). People can apply to join using the league's PIN (see the top of this post) - I'll just approve your application.
    How Do I Join The Ridersite Racing Private League?
    Once you've registered, the game home page will give you the option "My Team" - Click that option.
    Image

    On the "My Team" page, below your team selection, you will find "My Private Leagues". Click the "Enter New League" Button:
    Image

    You will find the options to start your own league and to join an existing league. Type the Ridersite Racing PIN into the box in "Join An Existing League" and press go.
    Image

    All that then remains is for me to add you to the league.

    Can I Win Anything?
    • Within the Private League, it's just for the honour of winning the game - or for most of us, the pleasure in taking part.
      The Overall Winner of the MCN game will win a prize. This year it's a Yamaha FZ8. Winners of each round will also receive Pirrelli tyres
      Image

      Image
    By When Must I Join?
    • I think (though I could be wrong) you can join whenever you like but you really need to join before the game starts at 04:00 GMT on Saturday, 25 February (the scheduled start time for the WSB Superpole session in Australia). If you don't join by then you'll miss the points for the first race (and qualifying)
So all that remains is for you to join up, sign up your riders and wait for the racing season to start on Saturday 25th Feb.

Good Luck and Happy Racing :smt003

By the way, don't be afraid to put your team in now. Until the season starts you can change it as much as you like.
Mine is a bit of a random choice at present

You're in - that's 3 of us now ..... come on the rest of you ....

There may be a few delays accepting people into the mini league this week - I'm off to Japan again tomorrow.
So if you find your requests to join hang about a bit, it could easily be I'm on a plane, or in meetings, or asleep due to the time difference .........

Come on everyone - get your teams in.

Racing starts this weekend.


..... and if you can't decide you can even get a randomly assigned team and change it later (or not). It adds a bit of extra interest to the season.

Here's the link to play: http://mcn.fantasyleague.com/Index.aspx

Instructions in the first post of the thread.
