We are in @ for the 6th in the series of season 2, this being the 2010 Madrid Masters Prediction League.
Points Scoring Rules(MUST READ)
FOR EVERY MATCH you predict the winner and the score they win by in sets. Predict the correct winner but the wrong score in sets, you'll now get THREE POINTS. However, if you also nail the score line in sets, (ie, Nadal beats Murray 2 set to love) you’ll get FIVE POINTS.
Each predictor is also able to pick a winner and runner up of the respective tournament (they have approximately up to a day before the FIRST ROUND MATCH in which to do this) Come the conclusion of the tournament – two points will be given to each predictor that predicts a correct FINALIST and an additional three points if the FINALIST finishes in their predicted position of WINNER or RUNNER UP.
If you grasp a sudden urge to change one or more predictions that you may already have posted, please make a new post, so I am aware of the time it was posted and can validate that the prediction was made before the respective match / matches. (Editing posts makes matters complicated)
ADDITIONAL BONUS COMPETITION
This will run exactly the same as the FIFA World Cup. 32 people will compete (if we don't get 32 we will sort it so it works). 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and no points for a loss.
PTA = Points total aggregate. In the event of a tie we will use PTA. This is calculated based on points you have scored less points scored "against" you. For example I play TM, Seffina and Shadows and score 93, 47 and 63. They score 88, 59 and 63 respectively. This would mean my PTA total would be -7 (+5, -12 and 0).
Top two players advance from each group. Each group will contain 4 teams and there will be 8 groups. The top two teams advance to the round of 16 and have a sudden death playoff game. This is therefore the knockout stage of the tournament.
Players will be picked on first the top 16 seeds and then the next 16 players to sign up. After we have 32 the Knockout tournament is closed (the main league is always open). Players after will be reserve players for those who miss the first round so that we can have as many active players as possible. I will name the reserve players.
This is a EXAMPLE of the tournament format if I have not answered any questions. http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?k...Zw&output=html
This is an entirely different competition from the main one. It is like the European Champions League and the Premier League. Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea and Liverpool compete in both but results don't affect the other.
Feel free to ask Chelsea_Kiwi any questions about the tournament. He will post more information soon.
League File and Frequently Asked Questions
Player Retirement Rules
1. If there is a walkover, the match is void.
2. If there is a retirement, and you picked the person that doesn't retire, you get 3 points. No matter the sets or score.
3. If there is a lucky loser situation and you picked the person the lucky loser replaced and the lucky loser wins, you get points accordingly (3 for correct winner, 5 for correct winner and set). If you picked the opponent and they win, you get points accordingly.
