Tennis Tipping – The Australian Open


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.

- 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. :D

Please read this post for more information

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: Australian Open, 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.

The singles manager is AdeyC and the doubles manager is ESimp

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE

If the board goes down as has happened before, send your picks to adriancollins@hotmail.com and e_simp@hotmail.com

Re: Tennis Tipping - Australian Open - Friday OOP Posted - Post 1362

in 4 Australian Opens I think the number of matches I won in TT for singles AND doubles can be counted on 1 hand :rolls:

Actually after checking the database it's half a hand :sobbing:

Thanks Adey and Eric for managing and Betty for playing :D

AND DON'T FORGET SURNAMES ONLY - CAN YOU PLEASE SEND THEM EXACTLY AS WRITTEN IN THE OOP ABOVE AND PLEASE CAN YOU ALSO PUT SINGLES/DOUBLES/BOTH IN THE HEADER

From the rules thread regarding incorrect picks - we really don't want to have to use it but note it does exist:-
a) If someone sends before OOP is posted then no punishment.
b) First time = a warning (manager should PM the player back)
c) Second time = a point penalty
d) Disqualification

Good luck :wavey:

which will go to the first person to send in picks after the OOP is posted – so plenty of players at all levels
will have a chance of winning something this week. [/CENTER]
