WELCOME TO THE TENNIS NIGHTMARE!!!
:devil:

:bounce: World Women's Tennis Tour :bounce:

Rules: :hatoff:

1. Simply choose any female tennis player of today or in the past and sign her up. Sign her name and the country she is from.

For Example:

Justine Henin (Bel)

or

Nadia Petrova (Rus)

2. After you have chosen your player, next rank your player's surfaces from best to last. There are 4 surfaces, Hard, Clay, Grass and Indoor. So rank them as follows:

Justine Henin (Bel)
Clay
Hard
Indoor
Grass

Your best surface at the top, your least favorite surface at the bottom.

3. Basically during the game, for each tournament you send in your points. Your best surface allows you 130 points. Your worst surface only allows you 100 points. So for example:

Justine Henin (Bel)
Clay - 130 pts
Hard - 120 pts
Indoor - 110 pts
Grass - 100 pts

For each tournament you split the number of points allowed into 3 sets.
So if the tournament was a clay court tournament, Justine Henin would split 130 points into 3 sets like as follows:

25-80-25
or
50-35-45

4. Simple enough right? The difference in points determines who wins a set. :dance:

No points difference = Coin toss and a 7-6(6) tie break set.
1 point difference = 7-6(5)
2 points difference = 7-6(4)
3 points difference = 7-6(3)
4 points difference = 7-6(2)
5 points difference = 7-6(1)
6 points difference = 7-6(0)
7-15 points difference = 7-5
16-25 points difference = 6-4
26-35 points difference = 6-3
36-45 points difference = 6-2
46-55 points difference = 6-1
56+ points difference = 6-0

For example if it was Justine Henin vs. Nadia Petrova

Nadia`s points were 25-80-25

and Justine`s points were 50-35-45

Henin would win the match: 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 :p

5. Doubles and Mixed Doubles, you send in 100 points for your team, split into 3 sets. In Doubles and Mixed Doubles you have a super tiebreak set.

Difference in points on Super Tiebreaks in Doubles & Mixed Doubles :)

No points difference, Coin toss = 12-10, 13-11...
No points difference, player with new points = 11-9
1-5 point difference = 10-8
6-10 point difference = 10-7
11-15 point difference = 10-6
13-20 point difference = 10-5
21-25 point difference = 10-4
26-23 point difference = 10-3
31-35 point difference = 10-2
36-40 point difference = 10-1
41+ point difference = 10-0

6. If your player ranked high enough, you can use bonus points:yeah:

Bonus Ranking points:

Player position - # of pts.
No.1 ............Surface points + 10
No.2 ............Surface points + 8
No.3 ............Surface points + 6
No.4 ............Surface points + 5
No.5-No.8 ......Surface points + 3

For example if the tournament is on hard, then Lucie Safarova as world #1 should send 140 pts: 130(Surface-hard) + 10(bonus):worship:


7. If both rivals sent similar points in set: :tape:
a) When points are the same but one player sent new pm with points and the other didn't. Every time the winner of the tie-break will be this player who has sent new points.
b) When points are the same no one sent new pm with points or both sent new points. Every time the cointoss shows the winner of the tie-break.

8. If you send the wrong points (more then you should) , you play the match, but in one moment you get an injury & retire from the tournament! The high-ranked player should be careful, because if he falls in ranking, he will have less bonus points. So his points became wrong. And a player gets an injury! :devil:

If both players send wrong points, than the winner will be the player, whose points divergence will be less!
If the points points divergence is similar, than it will be ordinary match. But that player gets an injury in the next round!:devil:

9. You can ask a WC into the tournament, if you`re not in the maindraw, before the first results are out. :angel:

When points are the same but one player sent new pm with points and the other didn't. Every time the winner of the tie-break will be this player who has sent new points!

So if Player A has 5 points in a set and Player B 1 point, Player B wins? :shrug:

No.1 ............Surface points + 15
No.2 ............Surface points + 10

No.4 ............Surface points + 7
No.5-No.8 ......Surface points + 5

For example if the tournament is on hard, then Lucie Safarova should send 145 pts: 130(Surface-hard) + 15(bonus)

:help: Better nothing than this :tape:

Oct 14th, 2007, 01:50 PM
number 1 IS the strongest in the game, so if he gets 15 points more, noone would beat her :tape:
