Tennis Tipping #6a - Dallas




What is Tennis Tipping?
In the game, participants pick the winners of all main draw matches and are placed in a knock-out system. That means each participant plays a different participant and whoever predicted the winner of most matches correctly, moves on to the next round. The same applies for doubles, but you're in a team format and your scores are combined.

Note:
- In case of a tie, a tie-breaker will decide who moves on to the next round.
New tie-break method: http://www.menstennisforums.com/showthread.php?t=135174

- In case a player (i.e. the actual ATP Player) retires in a match, this match will be counted as long as one point has been played. If players are replaced by a lucky loser after the start of Tennis Tipping, these matches will be cancelled.


How to Sign-Up:
Just post here that you would like to play. You can only play one tournament per week. Entries will be based on ranking. Everyone can commit.

Please read this post for more information
http://www.menstennisforums.com/showpost.php?p=4423014&postcount=1


How to send in picks:
Picks can be sent in as soon as the draws are ready. Remember, you pick a winner in every match! Picks should be sent by PM, so that your opponent does not know your picks. Picks should be titled: [TT Dallas, day #] . Picks can be sent in anytime until the beginning of play each day. If you're still in both singles & doubles, you use the same tips for both. For doubles, you still tip the ATP singles matches, not the doubles! No changes can be made after the play has started.


PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE
If the board goes down as has happened before, send your picks to ibreak4coffee@gmail.com

So its a tie in picks against the number 2 seeds. Guess I have to wait for SR diffs. Too many for me to process it :p

Edit: Oh yeah, I think we won :D

To me Sweeting is a heavy favorite in that match, but what do I know ;)

I have to cry a bit more often! No picks of half of the other team :D

Re: Tennis Tipping #6a - Dallas - Wednesday OOP Posted - 10:30am Deadline (5:30pm CET

I just read a poster's comments on Robby's last Match and I think it is Goodbye Dallas for me :eek:
Hope so :angel:

Good luck Mae (btw mae means mother in portuguese :D)!

Re: Tennis Tipping #6a - Dallas - Wednesday OOP Posted - 10:30am Deadline (5:30pm CET

They must still remember Robby fondly in Dallas! Both days he has played his Match has been the last Singles Match played!
They always put the "big names" at night - ie old timers going for one last run. I remember Philippoussis was the night match a few years ago :haha:

I wish there was a larger German contingent of players like last year so Dirk Nowitzki shows up :)

What is going on with this Forum? First posts were disappearing and now PMs are disappearing :scared:
I know. Many of the updates I post on the first page disappear the next day when I go to make more updates - strange.

I generally don't like to make reminder posts 30 minutes or an hour before the deadline with a list of missing picks, but I'll try and do that for the next few days to avoid this situation again.

Unlucky. I really am feeling like Freshi & myself have the luck this week.
Behind day 1 and an opponent doesn't send. I think we probably would have won anyway but who knows.
Then you guys miss a match that effectively gives us a 2-0 lead in picks and SR.

Good luck next week. :wavey:
