Hi, TripleATeam here. I'm not @Krish872007, but I figure they're busy, so I'll just get this thread up here until they find the time to make the official threads.
In fear of doing anything wrong, I'm going to pretty much copy/paste the 2018 version here.
BEGIN:
Hello and welcome to our final event in the 2019 ATP Sudden Death League season!
Nitto ATP World Tour Finals
O2 Arena, London, UK
10 - 17 November, 2019
Indoor Hardcourt
This event is open to everyone.
There will be a WTF Bonus Competition exclusively for the Top 8 in the Race/Rankings running side by side with this - the thread for that will be up later this week.
RULES (World Tour Finals):
1. Every day of the tournament that day's matches will be posted. You pick one player who you think is going to win. It's a knock out-system: if the player you picked wins, you're through to the next round. If he loses, you're out.
2. You have to pick one player per Round Robin day. In the semis and finals you pick one player per round.
3. During the round robin portion of the event, you can only pick a player ONCE. However, upon reaching the Semi-Finals, your picks will be re-set, so you can then pick a player you previously picked in the Round Robin.
4. You can't pick a player from a match that has started already.
5. You cannot advance to the next round via a walkover since it is hard to know exactly when someone announced they were pulling out HOWEVER this rule does not apply once you reach the semifinals
6. Since you can no longer win a match by a walkover it is highly advised that you make a back-up pick to your main pick - when listing your picks make sure you specify which is your back-up.
7. If the player you picked retires during the match, you're out. If he retires before the match, your back-up pick will be used.
8. If the opponent of the person you picked withdraws and is replaced by a lucky loser your original pick will stand unless you specifically change it. [Usual caveat applies - if you let me know clearly in advance, that's a different issue]
9. NEVER edit your pick. If you want to change your pick, please quote your old pick and choose a new player. Edited posts will not be taken into consideration.

As with anything, make your picks strategically. The picks from the Paris thread will be honored, I'm sure, but I just want the info to be in its own place if we can manage that.
