Pick-A-Winner (PAW) #50 | Winston-Salem Open 2013



Previous Winners:

2011: Hidalgo (Runner-up: Barlos)​

Welcome to Pick-A-Winner (PAW), the Predictions game!

Playing is simple: over the course of the tournament choose any 16 matches in the Main Draw and post who you think will win them. The scoring points besides each fixture represent the points you score if the corresponding player wins. Whoever has the most points at the end of the tournament is the winner. If this is the first time you’re playing or you’re not familiar with the rules of the game, here’s a link to the Official PAW rules and supplement thread.

Commitments
In order to play in this tournament you should have posted a commitment to play in the PAW August 2013 commitment thread. The deadline for commitments is Saturday 17th of August 2013 at midnight local time.

Wildcards
If you haven't posted a commitment until midnight (local time) on August 17th 2013, then you can ask for a wildcard. The number of WCs is limited to 5 per tournament. Any pick posted without having a WC or early commitment is not valid.
=> NEW From 2008 onwards we’ve limited the number of WCs for each player to 3 a year. You can keep track of how many you have used here.

Posting your picks
Please post your picks in the following format:
PAW## Player A (winner) over Player B (loser)
## number of pick in ascending order (01 to 13)
For me is better if you can enumerate the first pick with 01 instead of 1, the second pick with 02 instead of 2...
Please use the official last names of players, not nicknames.
A valid pick must include the names of both players (winner first) and the word over.

Before posting picks, check that the matches haven't started yet. A pick that is posted after a match started is invalid and may be replaced. I will use website www.xscores.com to verify that pics were posted before the start of the match.

In case a match doesn't take place due to withdrawal or change of the draw, the pick is invalid and may be replaced. If a player retires or defaulted after the match has started (even if one point was played), the pick is valid.

Changing your picks
If you want to amend a previous pick (cancel or change), quote the original post and add a new message. Don't edit the post and never delete it!
A moderator will scan this thread every day to track on deleted/edited posts. If you caught cheating, you will be automatically disqualified from this tournament. In certain case, you might be banned from playing temporarily or permanently. Please play fairly, everybody!

Don't forget, you're limited to 16 picks throughout the whole tournament.

Note: Tie break rules
In case several players have the same number of points, the following rules will be used to determine their ranking:
1. The greater number of correct picks. If there is still a tie then:
2. The greater points of a single pick. If there is still a tie then the greater second-best pick, and so on. No pick will be considered better than 0 pts.
3. If there is still a tie then players will stay tied.

Local time in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, United States of America (GMT -4h / CEST -6h)

-> Small correction: I put some positions in the final League Standings as tie between some users because the tie break rules didn't decide but in some cases (*Jean* vs br.w, cswab22 vs Eddy DoubleD and Cheeky Chickvs Renaud) it decided because a no pick is better than a 0 points pick. Thanks purtov45 for telling me it.
