Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I've been promoted despite having done nothing, how does that work, other players leaving the game?

@Diogenes - it could be that, or simply that people above you have lost points without you doing so. Imagine, for example:

Nemesis: 19 18 7 8 = 52
Diogenes: 18 20 8 5 = 51

If the person currently on 17 points or fewer in column 2 overtakes Nemesis and goes to 18 or 19 points, Nemesis will lose a point but you won't. Ditto if the person on 6 points in column 4 overtakes Nemesis.

Old Croc, aren't the points based on race times relative to others in your division? I thought they were - if so, there'll be people in all divisions with more (or fewer) points than you.

I've been relegated again....straight into the relegation zone ;)

OC, your points are calculated based on the others in your division. You cannot compare with another division.

Dio - definitely not through people leaving. The initial allocation of divisions was never going to give a perfect reflection of the ideal level - and I've seen a few people go up a couple of divisions.

OC - it definitely is a game for those who race, so fingers crossed you can up your scores over the coming months - but the points you are allocated in your new division aren't really comparable to the ones in the previous division.

I've been relegated into the squeaky bum zone, despite having two 19s!

I've not raced since March so was rather surprised by my success.

I'm not sure I understand the game anymore. I lost 5 points this week, despite not changing my scores. I'm assuming the game will settle, and I'll end up closer to the division I was in before (4 below where I appeared after the reboot)?

mbln - three players will have come down into your division from above - and each of them might have bettered you at some of the distances - so they pinch points from you.

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Start in the bottom division, and compete over seven different distances against your rivals for weekly promotion!

How It Works
1) The game takes your best times from training and racing over the last 12 months.

2) If you've got the fastest 5k in your division, you get 20 points. If you're second fastest, you get 19 points, etc.

3) Your FIVE best scores are used to calculate your total. So if your scores at each distance are 20,20,20,20,20,10,5 the lowest two are discarded, and your total points would be 100.

4) Promotion and relegation happen every Monday at midday.
