Instructions:

1. Pick a player that is ranked within the top 100, or a famous player from the past.
2. Pick a surface order (Rebound Ace, Clay, Grass, Hard, Indoors)
3. On your first surface you will get 250 points, Second: 245 Third: 240 Fourth: 235 Last: 225
4. For each tournament you must divide your points into 5 sets.
5. Example both players using 240 points:


Safin ponts:
Set 1: 60
Set 2: 40
Set 3: 70
Set 4: 35
Set 5: 35

Mathieu points:
Set 1: 20
Set 2: 100
Set 3: 60
Set 4: 50
Set 5: 10

Safin d. Mathieu 6-3 2-6 7-5 5-7 6-4​

6. For each set whoever has more points will win that set.
7. You may add points to your surface if you win a tournament:
IS – 3 points
ISG – 5 points
MS – 10 points
GS – 15 points
You can never have more as 270 points to use on a surface, because more would make you to powerful.
You will have this points on that surface until the same tournament is played in the next year. You don't get bonus points for doubles, just use your singles points.
8. Doubles Teams will be singles points added together. That way, it is easy for me to use points without a deadline.
9. Set Differentials:


6-0 ( > 100)
6-1 (100 – 80)
6-2 (79 – 60)
6-3 (59 – 40)
6-4 (39 – 20)
7-5 (19 – 10)
7-6:

7-0 (9)
7-1 (8-7)
7-2 (6-5)
7-3 (4-3)
7-4 (2)
7-5 (1)
10-8 (0):

- The one which wrote the most articles won the CT automatically.
But didn't write articles:
- If one sends points for the tournament, and the other didn't.
The one which send new points wins.
- A Coin Toss
But if there are 2 CT in 1 match both players will win 1.

He is not in top 100 but I will accept, he is so close to the top 100.
Every tournament is best of 5 sets, it's not real, but we also have 5 GS's, 1 on Indoors, which will be in Rome the 1st year.
P.S. Auckland starts Monday, you have 235 points to divide into 5 sets.

You are a nice person tennis2006 but I have to cut the games I will play in 2008 in MTF because school will need more of my time next year and I will have to manage PTS, do the rankings and race for Suicide. So, Saretta is out of FMTL. I wish the best of luck of you in this game

Hi, Im kinda new here but this looks like fun. I'm not sure I quite get it, do you send your points before you have done the results? Do I have to be very committed to it all?
If I can understand it a bit better I'd love to play :) Thanks.
