Ok, in Yorkshire it's Spinning a Yarn..

I have also complained to bkool but no answer back yet.

I haven't but if I'm pushed onto page two due to these charlatans, I'll be very vexed and may feel compelled to write a strongly worded letter.

The answer to the complaints on the Spanish BKOOL Facebook page is that they CAN NOT correct the error/wrong results, and that they are "SORRY"....

Might try the Neo and blow you away (ohh err)

I see all three dodgy rides on the Elite trainers from yesterday are now showing on the stage 7 leaderboard - all with over 1,500 average watts and over 70kph average speed http://www.bkool.com/classification/showIndividualStageClassification/7805

Ricardeno in particular looks to be happily mopping up other stages as well with similar results (see stages 2 and 4) - there's a part of me that would like it if he goes into the lead on all the stages and goes first in the league overall, just to force Bkool to take notice!

Any reply from your message to them @Daddy Pig ?

No reply at all although that would be what I expect...

The expression, excusing my English is what a bunch of c****

Makes a mockery of their league if they can't control such spurious results. I've posted onto their English page on FB but don't expect them to reply any time soon as they're not very professional.

Well, I guess it would be a complex operation to remove a spurious result, when it has been recorded in the database and rankings etc. has been updated. As mentioned in a couple of other posts, these faulty results should have been ironed out/quarantined for human inspection...

i'm giving my 6 o'clock a rest so I won't be lining up at 5 o'clock

Surely it's just an entry on a spreadsheet they need to delete. I'm no IT buff but being able to alter your own database would be a fundamental requirement would it not?

It's a little more complex than that, when the numbers are used in all sorts of calculations. I know nothing (I am (not) from Barcelona) about their setup, but adding data to a database is easy, and they probably have lots of stored procedures to do all the different calculations. They would have to develop new procedures to remove that data and/or redo ALL the calculations for all sessions, session rankings, league rankings etc. I would NOT take on that task! :-)

Is anyone planning on lining up at 5pm? I think there was no one last week, not even me.
I'm happy enough to give it a miss if no else is up for it.

I won't make it at 5. I'm way behind and need to catch up.

I'll have to do the long SC Kronborg Ironman stage to stay on page 2 in the GC, so no CG for me either. Hoping to do it faster than 1h20m....

Me too Randy. That's it settled. No CG at 5pm unless someone else wants to start it.
