FILL-IN-THE-DRAW SOFIA 2017​

Past champions:

2016: @Kamui010


These are the rules:

1) No commitments are necessary for the tournaments. Simply post your picks in the thread. You may play more than one event per week.

2) To play this game, you will post a full predicted draw for the tournament, including all winners in all matches of all rounds.

3) You must post your full prediction before the first ball of the first main draw match is struck.

4) Every player can replace his/her draw only once per tournament whatever the reason of replacement.
If you are changing picks, you must post your picks in a new post. No editing posts under any circumstances.

5) As far as qualifiers are concerned, you may post just "Qualifier" in you predictions if you wish to make them before the qualifiers are placed, or you may wait until they are placed to predict, but remember that you must post before the first match begins. If two qualifiers play each other, and you are predicting before they are placed, you must predict based on their placement in the draw. For instance, you may say "Qualifier 1" which would indicate a prediction that the qualifier who is listed first in the draw would win, or you may say "Qualifier 2" which means that you predict the other qualifier to win.
If you didn't choose Qualifier 1 or 2, your pick will not be counted.

6) If a player receives a bye, you do not get points for predicting them into the second round.

7) Scoring goes as follows:
The points you receive will be based on the round points for the tournament. For each player you predict correctly into the second round, you receive the round points for a first round victory, and so on.

8) The tiebreak rule is to go by how many correct picks the players had in each round, (for example)
1. # of correct Final picks
2. # of correct SF picks
3. # of correct QF picks
4. # of correct R16 picks, etc.
and if the players are still tied after counting each round, they will remain tied.

9) Please remember:
-When you post your picks, please list ONLY the winners of each round. DO NOT have 'Player A d. Player B' as it will make the manager's job much easier
-Also, please do not use smilies in your picks, there is really no need for it.

Re: FITD Sofia || Draw is out!

Who is Qualifier1?
Stebe or Gabashvili?
PortlandTimbers is correct.

If 2 qualifiers meet, then the first in the draw is Qualifier 1 and the second is qualifier 2, this does not matter for where in the draw they meet.
The reason for Qualifier 1 vs Qualifier 2 is so that there is no confusion as to which player in the draw you are picking. The rule is written for fairness so people cannot say they meant one player instead of another, it negates the possibility for cheating.

Never should the draw state qualifiers in number order from 1-4. The rule is written the way it is for a good reason. If you have the 2nd qualifier playing against the 3rd qualifier, a player could write qualifier 2 and state they meant either one.
