not out yet but look for it in a few hours or so

i think i've had an appalling day today xD

At least I called the Lappenti upset of Stepanek. I am not a total dummy. gj011 did as well, I'm guessing your reasoning was probably the same as well.

 

[timnz]

Federer beat Nadal 2 sets

Federer beats Nadal 7-6 7-5
in the Final.

I can't believe I'm leading! I think if we picked the underdog in every match, we would've fared better. I guess I'll get to tomorrow's matches now.

Wednesday's Matches:

Had a horrible round today. Yuck.

Thursday's Matches

• [7] F Verdasco (ESP) vs [10] D Ferrer (ESP) Verdasco 2-1
• [13] S Wawrinka (SUI) vs [2] [WC] R Federer (SUI) Federer 2-1
• [1] R Nadal (ESP) vs N Lapentti (ECU) Nadal 2-0
• [4] A Murray (GBR) vs [Q] F Fognini (ITA) Murray 2-0
• [Q] A Beck (GER) vs J Monaco (ARG) Monaco 2-0
• A Montanes (ESP) vs [3] N Djokovic (SRB) Djokovic 2-1
• S Bolelli (ITA) vs [WC] I Ljubicic (CRO) Bolelli 2-1
• [12] D Nalbandian (ARG) vs [8] N Davydenko (RUS) Davy 2-1

The match I'm looking forward to the most is Davy/Nalby.

--------------------------
I'm asking again about the lowest score minus per round for those that miss a round. I really think it'll get us more participants that way. You can miss a day sometimes because you're busy and it'll give everyone a chance to join in even mid game.

 

[Mungo73]

* [7] F Verdasco (ESP) vs [10] D Ferrer (ESP) Ferrer 2-1
* [13] S Wawrinka (SUI) vs [2] [WC] R Federer (SUI) Federer 2-0
* [1] R Nadal (ESP) vs N Lapentti (ECU) Nadal 2-0
* [4] A Murray (GBR) vs [Q] F Fognini (ITA) Murray 2-1
* [Q] A Beck (GER) vs J Monaco (ARG) Monaco 2-0
* A Montanes (ESP) vs [3] N Djokovic (SRB) Djokovic 2-0
* S Bolelli (ITA) vs [WC] I Ljubicic (CRO) Bolelli 2-1
* [12] D Nalbandian (ARG) vs [8] N Davydenko (RUS) Davy 2-1


can i play? :twisted: there goes my bet!

 

[seffina]

This is what the table would look like with the lowest score minus one for those who missed days factored in:

And the scores would be as follows:

1. aphex - 76
2. Shadows - 76
3. seffina - 72
4. Egn - 69
5. Tennis_Maestro - 69
6. TheNatural - 66
7. TheDuh - 64
8. Gugafan - 59
9. Gj011 - 57
10. oscar_2424 - 54
11. Minirafa386 - 50

Anyone who joined in this coming round would start off with the lowest possible score of 48 points.
(I gave TheDuh 13 points for the first round instead of 7 as he only picked half the matches)
------------------
We don't have to, but it would keep it competitive. We could also do lowest minus 2 to be a little fairer to those who participated every day. Anyhoo.

 

[Tennis_Maestro]

^ I don't agree that sort of system is fair enough to be employing, especially as a player joining in late might hit an amazing streak of good predictions and then all of a sudden shoot to the top of the table. I'm sure that would infuriate many @ the top of the table.

 

[egn]

I have lost faith in the lower half of the top 10.

Just to say, if we're taking opinions on it, I have no problem with people joining late being given some base points from the previous days to allow them to be competitive, the more the merrier ^^
