WIMBLEDON 2011 PREDICTION LEAGUE (9th in series, Season 3)

[seffina]

WELCOME TO 2011 WIMBLEDON PREDICTION LEAGUE!
Anyone at any time can play, so join in on the fun starting Monday, June 20th!

HOW TO PLAY:​

For EVERY match, predict the winner and the number of sets it will take for the winning player to win the match. (EX: [1]R Nadal (ESP) vs [4] A Murray (GBR) - Murray in 4) If you predict the correct winner but in the wrong number of sets, you'll get THREE POINTS. If you predict both the correct winner and the correct number of sets, you’ll get FIVE POINTS.

Each predictor is also able to pick the winner and runner up of the tournament before the FIRST MATCH. At the conclusion of the tournament, two points will be given to each predictor who predicts a correct FINALIST and an additional three points if the FINALIST finishes in their predicted position of WINNER or RUNNER UP.

You can edit a pick until a particular match starts, however, please always make a new post quoting the original pick. DO NOT EDIT THE ORIGINAL POST.

PREDICTION LEAGUE DOUBLES HEAD TO HEAD CONTEST:​

In addition to the regular tournament, each participant can pair up with another one and participate in a doubles tournament. There is no additional match picking or work involved. Your regular league scores are combined with your partner's to compete against another team.

The doubles tournament format is similar to the FIFA World Cup. There are round robin rounds where you and your partner compete against doubles teams in your group. The top two or three teams from your group then move on to the knockout rounds. The exact format will depend on the number of doubles teams.

I saw that flash across the screen last night on Sportscenter and I just busted out laughing. I couldn't believe they would pull some **** like that. Granted it was a Stanley Cup, but still keep it together damn Canadians, eh!

 

[romeo8880]

I am in for singles. This will be my first event and I plan on winning. Please keep me updated on what I need to do.

Hockey is like a religion in this country. The hockey players is like our gods and the Stanley Cup is the holy grail.

Welcome to the game romeo8880. When seffina releases the order of play for each day, all you have to do is pick the winner for each match.

When the draw is released tomorrow, you can immediately pick the winner and the runner-up.

We only pick matches for the ATP Tour.

Hope you enjoy the game =)

Heathens.

Welcome to the game romeo8880. When seffina releases the order of play for each day, all you have to do is pick the winner for each match.

And the number of sets they will win in.

romeo8880, the doubles (or H2H) does not require any extra work. We're not actually picking doubles ATP matches or anything. It's just a partnership b/w you and another member here and your scores for ATP singles are combined to form "a doubles team." It's fine if you're not interested, but just clearing it up.

 

[NYKings]

I read an article about how Boston fans have been waiting so long for the Bruins to win and how they're "long-suffering" fans - they should go watch every other sport there is... spoiled silly they are.

Sorry for spamming your thread seff

Heh. There was a poll on the radio on one the sports show ( I think Dan Patrick... he just had had Tony Dungy so I was listening) about what team who hasn't won a championship deserves it the most. The Cubs were taken out of the poll, though. Totally the Pacers... but I might be slightly biased.

Every NY team and the Colts have won so sure... Pacers. I'd say Falcons but they're not a real team.

 

[djokovicgonzalez2010]

But of course! And with my buddy DG, should he appear once again.

I don't think so will be gone

 

[Tammo]

Whaaaaa, I don't have a partner yet. Just kidding, (but I did place 5th in Queens)

 

[romeo8880]

I'll partner with you if you want. This will be my first event for both the singles and now also the doubles if you want to partner up.
