Warren's Schedule Challenge

Hey everyone!!! Yep, I'm running a much easier to manage game since I'm home during the day now!!! It's pretty much like WPTT was, but with a tripped out schedule that balances just about every surface. We will have fun, and because this game is super easy to score, it should last for a while!!!

Rules

1. Select Your Player

Current Top 100 or Retired Grand Slam Winner (Strictly Enforced)


2. Select Your Surface Preferences
Reboud Ace - Clay - Grass - Hard - Indoor


3. How To Send Points

Best Surface: 200 points
Second Surface: 190 points
Third Surface: 180 points
Fourth Surface: 170 points
Fifth Surface: 160 points
PC Players: 160 points
Neutral Surface: 200 points

Divide Points Into These 13 Attributes:

Serve:
Return:
Forehand CC:
Backhand CC:
Speed:
Footwork:
Volley:
Lob:
Mental:
Power:
Touch:
Forehand DL:
Backhand DL:

Example

Best Surface 200 Points

Serve: 15
Return: 15
Forehand CC: 15
Backhand CC: 15
Speed: 15
Footwork: 15
Volley: 15
Lob: 10
Mental: 10
Power: 20
Touch: 25
Forehand DL: 15
Backhand DL: 15
= 200


4. Scoring

Each attribute will be selected at random. Whoever has the highest number in the selected attribute wins the game. It's really fun and even when you reach the top you will still have to strategize to win against the top players. Then, and only then will luck come into play.

Here is how matches will be played
All players attributes will be put into a random list sequencer at random.org. Whatever order the list comes out in is how the set will be scored (from top to bottom). Here is an example of a set between Amelie Mauresmo and Mashona Washington.

Each player has 200 points

A. Mauresmo's Attributes
Serve:20
Return: 10
Forehand CC:20
Backhand CC:10
Speed:10
Footwork:20
Volley:10
Lob:10
Mental: 20
Power: 25
Touch: 10
Forehand DL: 20
Backhand DL: 15

M. Washington's Attributes
Serve: 20
Return: 10
Forehand CC: 25
Backhand CC: 25
Speed: 20
Footwork: 09
Volley: 20
Lob: 10
Mental: 10
Power: 10
Touch: 10
Forehand DL: 11
Backhand DL: 20

For the first set the list sequence is:
10 :Volley: 20
10 :Speed: 20
20 :Mental: 10
20 :Forehand DL: 11
10 :Touch: 10
20 :Footwork: 09
20 :Forehand CC: 25
10 :Lob: 10
10 :Return: 10
10 :Backhand CC: 25
20 :Serve: 20
15 :Backhand DL: 20
25 :Power: 10

If players are evenly matched in an attribute, a coin-toss will decide the winner of that game. The list will be re-shuffled for each set.


5. Schedule

After we play the first two events (which will be on neutral surfaces), you will begin selecting your schedule for each season. I will post a thread for season schedules after the first two events. For now you guys make look at the schedule in order to help select your surface preferences.


6. Doubles

Each Event Will Have 8 Doubles Teams Max. PC doubles teams will fill in the draws win necessary. All doubles teams use 200 points including PC players!!! Both doubles players must send points. Points will be alternated each round. Send doubles points to GracefulVenus. Because of two tournaments a week there will be no permanent doubles teams although you many play with the same person as much as you like. You will have an individual doubles ranking.
