You are up against sexybeast.  I hate it when posters that I like play each other.

What's UL?
I have a tough draw.  But thanks for the vote of confidence.

I think it's unlucky loser, but the way the draw was done luck had nothing to do with it, last spot played 1 seed, 2nd last slot played 2nd seed, etc. LL and Qualifiers were basically screwed before this even started

Re: 2012 MTF Popularity Contest News Thread
Oh my god I forgot to vote in the Jess/Purple Rainbow match.  I couldn't decide who to vote for so I thought I'd go back to it but I forgot.
I ended up deciding to vote for Jess. I was gonna say that she voted for me in Ms MTF last year and that it was unfortunate we haven't really talked a lot cos we don't post in the same threads. I can't believe I forgot.

Ok, Drama Queen, Jesus, we heard you.
SapELee will replace you in the draw.

Re: 2012 MTF Popularity Contest News Thread
Johnny, shouldn't the second seed be at the bottom of the draw?

They as good as are  Really doesn't matter the order of the quarters so long as top and 2nd seeds aren't beside each other.

But it's okay, because the top 10 playing more is good for the game!

Re: 2012 MTF Popularity Contest News Thread
I was to see myself in a contest on MTF - but thanks for the kind words to people in the voting thread. Pardon my in-activeness in the forum-I do lurk in non-tennis for the most part.
PS : Tripster-you look set to go for gold this year
