Sure were well under the build limit, so maybe even a 10+ rider doubling down? Sorry... so... It's a spread sheet and I just bang the name and the numbers in an it does the rest however what you may need to know is... Every club has 41 build points... Brits get a 2.5% reduction on their average... you must pick a Rising Star Reserve at No 7 who has a 1. 2. or 3 star rating and depending on which one you pick results in what you have left to build your 1 to 6... so you will be left with 40. 39. or 38 build points for the rest of your team depending on your Star pick choice... now stick with it Ruff as that may not be true because reading on the Rising Star thread someone has said that a 1* rated rider will get a 2 point average which I dont think is right... however I have known to be wrong before so we will have to wait on that one.... Therefore for the Newcastle team at the minute with a 1* reserve I am assuming we have 40 build points left for our 1 to 6 unless matey boy on the other thread is right then we will only have 39 points left for our 1 to 6.... it will be easily changed once we get confirmation of how it will all work... I have just noticed on that it doesn't come out to well on my phone screen either so if I get time I will have a butcher's tomorrow and see if I can get it looking better on a smaller screen... Phew... simples... eh... Regards THJ Edited February 4 by TotallyHonestJohn Edited for accuracy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regards THJ A knaa aal of that man!,,, a just cannit see how many were at noo?,,, we must be well short of 39 or 40, so if Claus wasn't available, we could have his 8.43 plus extra? But, like you say, it doesn't look well on your phone screen too, I only can see the names and no numbers/averages, if that makes sense? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Next updates I will have another go at getting it to fit better on the phone screen...

Regards THJ Yes 12.09, that's exactly what a got when I figured out that the numbers to the right, read down over. But anyway it looks much better now, well done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
