Alex (Bubba08) asked me to open new thread, since he is no longer active in this game.

HenryMag and tennismaster8820 already asked for Gastein and Portoroz in other thread.

I volunteer for LA.

I would like to run Palermo.

I may run Budapest ;)

I could do any tournament?

I want to apply for the Olympic Games :)

I would like to run Stanford as I did lasy year. Thank you :)

I havn't run a tournament before, but I would like to give Cincinnati a try.

I want to apply for the Olympic Games :)

Did you ever run a tournament?

Can I run any tournament?

Budapest or Palermo please :)
I'm totally free that week and I'm not able to run other tournies as it is not in my timezone or I'm on holiday.

Can I run any tournament?

Yes, you can. Do you have any preferences?

Did you ever run a tournament?

no, i didn't run a tour here, but i used to be a manager somewhere else :)

considering my time zone, i apply for the OG, i'll do my best if u give me a shot :lick:

of course, now i see the OG will be runned differently from the other tours, so if u guys prefer someone with more experience to run it , i totally understand :D

I volunteer for LA.

Ok

I would like to run Palermo.

Sure

I may run Budapest ;)

Maybe you can even run something else too? ;)

I want to apply for the Olympic Games :)

If you are sure that you can handle it then you can have it. Though usually it is preferred that new managers will run some smaller tournament first.

Budapest it is then.

Yes, you can. Do you have any preferences?

Stockholm or Montreal ;)
But Stockholm would be my time.zone but I would'n have any problems to run the other one in Canada;)
So take one for me:lol:!:help:
:wavey:

denijs will take Montreal and New Haven ;)

Stockholm for Adrian

thanks meelis :D

Stockholm for Adrian

:yeah:
My very first tournament to run myself:scared:
But now I have some experience after that weeks Doubles-Management:lol:
:wavey:

thanks

i'll do my best :kiss:

btw, maybe i can run Monteroni D'Arbia CH 25k first, as a test :), if u think i don't qualify for the OG at that time, there will be still time to dismiss me........:lol:

If U want I will make US Open dubs event...

Alex (Bubba08) asked me to open new thread, since he is no longer active in this game.
Yep, good luck meelis.

I can help with the USO (still on holidays that time) and do FH i guess :shrug:

What to do with a manager who does not post the results, which puts bad differences, postea updates with the blue after which the winners are not winners, and thanks to these errors I lost by not sending peaks in the day Today?
Someone can answer my questions?
All this is in Rosmalen.
Thank you.

thanks

i'll do my best :kiss:

btw, maybe i can run Monteroni D'Arbia CH 25k first, as a test :), if u think i don't qualify for the OG at that time, there will be still time to dismiss me........:lol:

hi, slowvin

maybe i can make the doubles of Olympic if u want:):)

I volunteer for LA.

Now I have a week of chess in Denmarl at that time :rolleyes:
So I can't do LA.
Maybe I can switch with the manager who does Cincinnati?

Or I can ask for US Open.

Can I do Los Angeles?

Can I do Los Angeles?

Yes you can :)

Thx...:woohoo:

But only if U'll play ther...:hug:

Somebody wants to do Monteroni?

I made 3 challengers this year, and if need, I will make it too. But only in case of nobody want it..

Question.

We made the rule that no top 30 can enter ITFs unless after the season or during slams. The week of August 4th, we are doing Monteroni, a 25K.

That same week, there is also a 100K in Mexico and a 75K in Moscow. Maybe we can run a second tournament that week and put the top 32 in one and everyone else in another? Or lift the ITF ban for this week? Maybe we could run both Monterrey and Monteroni and have no entry requirements. Or keep the top 30 in one. Doesn't really matter.

There are no WTA tournaments scheduled for the week of August 4th.

If top-30 can´t play, then one tournament is enough. If top-30 are allowed to play, then one more tournament must be added. Monterrey/Moscow can be done, even thought they might be little difficult to run (finding OOP is probably the hardest part).

Well for Moscow the OOP is easier to find in tennieurope :shrug:

Well for Moscow the OOP is easier to find in tennieurope :shrug:

But often TennisEurope only updates next morning.

I need an Assistant Manager for LA...

someone?

I'll do it. I'm pretty bored. :)

I wanna try to be the manager of tennis tipping..
can I have Korea

I'm asking with plenty of time, and only rui asked before soo :p

Us Open for me please :wavey:

I've done a really good job managing Birmingham, Bangalore, Waikoloa and all doubles in Rome :shrug: All of them 64S/32D except for the Waikoloa Challenger :shrug:

So i can run 1/2 singles in Us Open or Doubles :shrug:

It's a manager of a GS, who choose assistant managers for the tournament, so if you want to help with USO you must PM Rui, not ask Meelis (he only accepts the head managers for TT events)...

Ok Sure :shrug: :)

can I have Korea

Ok

I want to apologize but I won't be able to run New Haven as I will be back from my holiday on Monday 18th and it should start at least on Sunday with qualies...
If anyone is interested, then let it be taken over :wavey:

I am surely free to run one of the European events on October and it will be easier than Montreal due to timezone, so you can count me e.g. for Moscow ;)

I would like to run ITF Denain and Linz.

OK :)

Stutgart for me again :)

I would like to run Zurich.

I go back to class on Aug 27. So I can run New Haven but after NH, I am going to be unable to be of any assistance. I know, what will you guys ever do without me! :hysteric:

Can we have a 32Q draw for NH? Forest Hills is only a 16draw so I just feel bad for the lower ranked players who will be shut out in both. I can begin qualifying on Friday, 2R on Sat, Qualie round on Sunday. MD begins Monday.

If you think, that you can help libre out, then great.

i can help for beijing ?

Thanks for offer. You really should try some smaller tournament first, since you haven´t been manager before. But, if we haven´t found somebody to run it before end of the week, then you can give it a try. If you think you can handle it.

Yes I think that I can. Any challengers ?

If you think, that you can help libre out, then great.


I will ask Adrian 1992 everything, he can speak in German with me :p

Yes I think that I can. Any challengers ?

So you want to run challenger?

:cool:

Yes Mellis..! I can run!

I could run Beijing if you like...I haven't run a tournament here so I understand if you don't want to give it to me, I've managed many on MTF though :hatoff:

What shall I do with the Guangzhou-thread? Libre already opened one, but i need to update the entry lists and so on. If he doesn´t have time to do so - should I open a new thread?

I could run Beijing if you like...I haven't run a tournament here so I understand if you don't want to give it to me, I've managed many on MTF though :hatoff:

YEAH give him this tournament...i played many of his mtf tournaments and he's just GREAT!! reports :hearts:

We don´t have any more challengers in September, but you can run one in October or November :)

Perfect :D

What shall I do with the Guangzhou-thread? Libre already opened one, but i need to update the entry lists and so on. If he doesn´t have time to do so - should I open a new thread?

Yes, it is probably better, if you open a new one. Then you can update things on first page.

Okay :D

I will do it tonight or tomorrow ;)

Okey, thanks Mellis!

You don`t want to run anything before? But ok.

Instead of Mumbai, there will be challenger. Either Joue-Les-Tours or Pittsburgh. Or maybe even Barnstaple. Whoever will be manager, can choose ;)

Mumbai cancelled :o



You don`t want to run anything before? But ok.

thanks..i'll be busy for my exams on the first half of october so yeah i dont wanna take any earlier tournament :p

Gigi_dulko committed in time in Guangzhou, and the manager wants to play the qualy, I think this is wrong, who must play the qualy is by its rightful ranking, is more Gigi_dulko was the first enrolled in the tournament. I expect a quick answer to this question, because the qualy tomorrow begins Sunday.

Meelis can i run Shrewsbury (GBR ?

It was solved?

Meelis can i run Shrewsbury (GBR ?

That week we already have 2 WTA tournaments, so no need for ITF. If you want, then you can run a challenger during week of October 6. $50,000 Joue-Les-Tours (France) or $50,000 Pittsburgh (USA) or $50,000 Barnstaple (Great Britain). I would suggest either Joue-Les-Tours or Pittsburgh.

Is Ortisei free, Meelis? :)

Is Ortisei free, Meelis? :)

Yes :)

Then may I run it? :p

Yes ;)

No problem :)

Hi, a question: Someone sent picks 8 minutes after end of the deadline.

Do I have to accept it? :angel: Because I posted in the thread 5 minutes before that no picks are possible anymore.

If picks were sent before first point was played, then you should accept it.

First point was played 10 minutes after scheduled start.

Okay :D

Can i give myself a WC to yec? :p.

I guess, you already know the answer? ;)

Can i give myself a WC to yec? :p.

No there are no wild-cards right now in TT ;)

No there are no wild-cards right now in TT ;)

Next season maybe?;):hehehe:
I think 2 WC for Singles and 1 for Doubles would be kinda cool:)
We could test it in the off season and make rules for that:):angel:
I would help with that...:lol:
:wavey:

This is not a suggestion and ideas thread ;) :p

For sure the rules won't change till the end of the season :wavey:

Ok, this is not the idea thread, but still:

I think there can be 2 WC for singles and 1 WC for doubles only in case the players offered the WC are newcomers. :) This would help to attract new players to TT. :D

:rolleyes::rolleyes::spit::cuckoo:

Its called JOKE

We all would love you to play the YEC, but unfortunately there aren't any WC for this event :sad:

No? :devil:

Now how i'll defend my FINAL ?

hahah :) my next ranking: 70. :) AFTER BEING 3 FOR MORE THAN 6 MONTHS :smash:

Can someone please take AIG Open (tier III in Tokyo) instead of Rena&Lindz. Should be easy, with not too many players.

Also we need someone to run challenger during Moscow week (Week of Oct 6)

Meelis, I will run Tokyo, but the problem is Tokyo is +5 for me, so I can give the differences only around 2.30 PM Tokyo time... If it's ok, then I can run it. :)

I would like to run Tokyo. I feel bad that I can't help this Fall because of my weird hours.

But Tokyo's time difference makes it perfect for me. It's so bad that it reverts back to being good. :)

Hey if Meelis doesn't mind, I want Tokyo. :ras:

Gigi:hug::awww:

Well we still need someone for the ITF:shrug:
I would do it, but since I ran Stockholm, USO Doubles, Bali, Kanton Doubles that week and Tashkent in 2 weeks, I just feel a bit:weirdo::weirdo:
Also school began for me that week and I will do my job perfectly:fiery::awww:
+ Rankings is also my job...
:wavey:

Just a question: Why some players have to grump about the Game Runners all the time? I think someone should tell these posters that a good behavior is needed.

Adrian1992 said yesterday, that he won´t be able to post Differences and Scores before 1 PM CET and a poster wrote "What a parody.... i still don't know what happen in doubles.... so bad.... sorry..."

And then we noticed that this poster didn´t even send his picks :help:

I don´t want to complain but i think there should be a code of behavior for the players :lol: Another one made fun of me, because he sent his picks for doubles (he´s out of singles already) only to me and wrote that i should forward it to Adrian... Is that necessary? :o

Anyway ... thanks Adrian and meelis for your help :hug: Without you i would have committed suicide already :lol: :p
And thanks to the 95% nice and patient players of TT ;)

People i'm gonna ask a little of patience...the season is ending and when it ends me and the rest of the board will probably ask the players what changes do they want and we'll sort the things we think that are wrong...

just a little more time please :)

After today, Rena&Lindz is desperate to prove that he can do a good job as manager. So he will run Pittsburgh. But I will follow it closely and check everything (picks, results etc).

Are all the members of the current board are actually doing something for the game?

I only see Rui, Meelis and Denijs and ITZ.

I want power. Lemme be in it. :lol:

And why did you give me the Guangzhou-tournament without any reservations? :scared:

I feel honored, but i still want it to know :p :hug:

Its called JOKE

Bad JOKE indeed :)

And why did you give me the Guangzhou-tournament without any reservations? :scared:

I feel honored, but i still want it to know :p :hug:

Normally we give everyone, who looks trustworthy, a chance. And only intervene, if something does not go as it should.

But Rena&Lindz debut did not went well at all. So next attempt needs to be controlled more closely.

Well, my debut wasn´t good at all so far I guess :o

But now it´s getting better and better :lol: Thanks god Adrian helps me :hug:

Hey everyone!

I was just told today that I will have to do this subject at university that I wasn'y supposed to do before. The thing is that it starts on the 29th of September, the same day as Stuttgart starts. Because I'm afraid this could take some of my time I was looking for someone who could handle the doubles for me. If anyone is interested please PM me.

To be honest, it deosn't mean you wouldn't... but even if there was a new election (likely there won't be any in close future) you probably won't get in as you didn't in the last one... It isn't likely to change that much on your favour in few months :wavey:

i know that.:)

and your rep talks by itself :lol:

I have a short question: Final of Guangzhou - after Saturday 1 doubles team was ahead 2-0, but one player of this team didn´t send his picks. The other pair sent their picks although there was no possibility of winning anymore. Does this count as a withdrawal?

I think yes :shrug:

In this case Polish team still wins.

There was a possibility for the other team?
Final was TB1, so if they won 2-0 in the final match, they would go to 2-2 and win!

Okay, thank you. No, i just thought it would be fairer that the other team win, because they sent their picks :shrug:

But rules are rules ... :p :tape:

Who can help me out in the Seoul...I need someone to deal with the double pick:)
Thanks for help :)



I can help with the Doubles if you like. Just let me know.:wavey:

Okay, thank you. No, i just thought it would be fairer that the other team win, because they sent their picks :shrug:

But rules are rules ... :p :tape:

According to matpaw, they did send picks too, but to Adrian :shrug:

Yeah, but we both wrote that Adrian isn´t at home today and that they should send picks only to me.

I think who can read is in advantage, both sent picks to the wrong person the whole week just to drive us crazy :fiery:

I would run ITF Krakow:woohoo::inlove::hearts:

If possible, I would like to run ITF Odense later this year.

If possible, I would like to run ITF Odense later this year.

Yes :)

sorry Meelis but I cannot run Ortisei. :sad:

Mellis I wanted to ask you if you stay somewhere ITF for me?

Gigi can´t run Ortisei, so maybe you can run it? If you want :unsure:

Yes, of course! When start ?

Week of Oct. 13 (same time as Zurich)

Good luck running it. If you need help/have questions don't hesitate to ask.

OK thanks!

What would be better schedule for YEC? (Group format)

Monday - 1 vs 2, 3 vs 4
Tuesday - 1 vs 3, 2 vs 4
Wednesday - 1 vs 4, 2 vs 3
Thursday+Friday - SFs
Saturday + Sunday - F

or.

Monday+Tuesday+Wednesday picks for

1 vs 2
1 vs 3
1 vs 4
2 vs 3
2 vs 4
3 vs 4

Thursday + Friday SFs

Saturdayu + Sunday F

by the way i'll ask todd if he wants to run doubles with me. if not, anyone?

IMO definately the first is more interesting :wavey: It will also make the results more unpredictable till the end (e.g. noone would be sure to advance after 2 days) ;)

Definitely the first.

But there is no matches on Monday ;)

so

Tuesday - RR1
Wednesday - RR2
Thursday - RR3
Friday - SF
Saturday and Sunday F

:help:

Yes :)

Can somebody run Bratislava?

Can somebody run Bratislava?

I do it:)
holding TT is fun, especially making the draw :D

I do it:)
holding TT is fun, especially fixing the draw :D

:eek:

I won't be able to run Odense, due to a change in schedule. Hope someone else can take over.

Opening YEC thread.

10/11/2008 ITF San Diego (TBC) H 32/16/16/8
17/11/2008 ITF Odense (TBC) H 32/16/16/8
17/11/2008 ITF Opole (TBC) Ca 32/16/16/8
24/11/2008 ITF Toyota (TBC) Ca 32/16/16/8
24/11/2008 ITF Perth (TBC) H 32/16/16/8


We need managers for these tournaments....Does anyone want them?

Meelis, if nobody else can do it can i run Minsk 50k instead of San Diego?

Meelis, if nobody else can do it can i run Minsk 50k instead of San Diego?

If we will continue to play that week, then both San Diego and Minsk must be held. There is too many players for only one tourney.

If you think you can run Minsk, then great :) Hopefully someone can take San Diego too.

I will be able to run Odense anyway, so I will do so.

San Diego for me please:)

I can do Opole. :)

I can do Opole. :)Can you do Minsk? :p

I will be able to run Odense anyway, so I will do so.

San Diego for me please:)

I can do Opole. :)

Great :yeah:

No. I'm in Prague from 13th to 16th of November. So I can open Opole thread but maybe I need an assistent for doing qualies (if necessary). I'll be home again from sunday evening so from there I can handle it.

Why don't we run Toyota and Dubai? Might as well extend the season for anyone who wants to play? It'll keep us from being bored. :p

Meelis instead of Perth it's better St.Dennis Reunion...It's easier to find the OOp i'm sure...
But if we want to extend the season till Dubai like Paul said then better stay in Australia for Sorrento :lol:


so it would look like this:

24/11/2008 ITF Toyota (TBC) Ca 32/16/16/8
24/11/2008 ITF Perth (TBC) H 32/16/16/8
01/12/2008 ITF Sorrento (TBC) H 32/16/16/8
08/12/2008 ITF Prerov (TBC) H 32/16/16/8
15/12/2008 ITF Dubai (TBC) H 32/16/16/8
22/12/2008 ITF Dehli (TBC) H 32/16/16/8



Or we can cut things after Perth and start the season in Dubai? :p


I'm dreaming so much :p

WOW, many ITFs in Decemeber
Don't stop please...:)

TT All Year!! :D :hearts:


:spit: :rolls:

My Christmas gift will be to win Dehli :spit:

Meelis instead of Perth it's better St.Dennis Reunion...It's easier to find the OOp i'm sure...


Not sure about that at all.

i'll take Delhi if it is going to happen:)

OOPs for most of those are quite impossible I guess.

OOPs for most of those are quite impossible I guess.

but you usually get the draw and results, don't you? So you could just say top half of R1=TT R1, bottom half =TT R2, R2=TT QF, QF=TT SF, SF + F = TT F :shrug:

some time they pick qualies and few md matches to play on the same day :shrug:

but you usually get the draw and results, don't you? So you could just say top half of R1=TT R1, bottom half =TT R2, R2=TT QF, QF=TT SF, SF + F = TT F :shrug:

Could be an option yes... but first two rounds will be complicated for the manager for sure then :help:

I'll run Prerov :)

I'd like to run a tournament but isnt it hard to run a challenger? with OOp's and scores...maybe ill wait for 2009 unless its not that difficult

Delhi is mine:)

I would also like to run Dehli:drool::rocker2:

There's no site for Dehli i think....

Dubai is when finals are done for me.

I'd like to run it.

We Need To Decide This Asap

Dubai is when finals are done for me.

I'd like to run it.

:hearts::hearts::hearts::worship:

Dubai for ITZ.

Still not sure what to do with Delhi. I would cancel it, since it could get messy with no oop and possible late results. But, if somebody wants to give it a try :shrug:

I think it is :cuckoo: to play TT during christmas week. :p

Sorrento Pls Am I not good enough for a 25k :shrug:

I think it is :cuckoo: to play TT during christmas week. :p

I would have ended the season after next week, but TT addicts can´t survive that long without playing :p

Sorrento Pls Am I not good enough for a 25k :shrug:

Sorrento is a 25k, but it is also a only tournament that week. So lot of work ;)

I guess you can run it, if you really want.

Let's add Copa Casablance in the Week of Dec. 29 and we have a full year of TT :haha:

:p could anyone let me know when it is the right time to upload the Oz Thread? ^^ im new in the WTA management and im not sure about these stuff :D

a pm would be :hearts: but if posted here it would be more than ok ^^

Now would be good ;)

I could do for Dehli an exhibition:D
You would play for fun, without ranking points, and you would play for your country;)
3 or 4 players would play for each country, and we could do groups or just play a normal draw:D
There is still a lot of time left, maybe the board will tell me his opinion about that;)
:wavey:

What you can do is this ;)

32 Countries get involve (32 draw)
7 player each country (one players play for each day of the tournament ;) ) so everyone would get in :D (if players of that country is full they can join another one.but they orginal country wouldnt be change:))
If a country aint have enough players for them,Adrian should choose who will send again :)
Winner of the team(country 7 people should get 100 points each for christmas :lol:
if a player didnt send means Automatic D/Q
Doubles will go as plan with 2 players representing a country in the 16 draw:) winners also get 100 points rest gets nothing.
I AM DELUSIONAL :o

Or we do it normally even though its XMAS :sobbing:

Or Cancel it :sobbing:

Thats my idea for an exhibition in Dehli:D

I would like to do a draw like : Germany vs. USA
and so on:D
It would be a 32-DRAW and there can also be teams like GER1 and GER2 or even CHN1 CHN2 and CHN3;):lol:

In every team there would be 3 players who will play all together against the other team:)

Every player of a team will play against a other player of the other team at the first 3 days.
GER 1 vs. USA 1; GER 2 vs. USA 2; and so on...then there would be First Round on the first 3 days, with playing everyone against each other, and the team which scores 3 or 2 points wins.:)

DAY 1: GER 1 def. USA 1
DAY 2: USA 2 def. GER 2
DAY 3: GER 3 def. USA 3
=> GER wins 2:1

Then on Day 4 and 5 the teams would play as one player GER1/GER2/GER3 vs. ARG1/ARG2/ARG3

DAY 4:
2nd Round: GER1/GER2/GER3 def. ARG1/ARG2/ARG3

DAY 5:
Quater-Final: GER1/GER2/GER3 def. POL1/POL2/POL3

At day 6 and 7 there would be Final.
On first Day of Final GER would chose which player will play against each other(f.e.: GER1 vs. CHN3; GER2 vs. CHN1; GER3 vs. CHN2)
On the other day CHN would chose.
Max. final score would be 6:0; if it would tie 3:3, the team with more straight wins(7:6 > 6:6 TB1) would win that special-tournament!!!

DAY 6:
GER1 def. CHN3 3-2
GER2 def. CHN1 2-2 SR
GER3 def. CHN2 2-1

DAY 7:
CHN1 def. GER3 3-3 TB 1
CHN2 def. GER1 3-3 SR
CHN3 def. GER2 2-1

Germany wins with more straight wins!!!!

Maybe the board can give some Christmas-Extra-Gift Points;):lol:
:wavey:

Please tell me if you like my idea, also all other players:):unsure:

NOTE: If you have a country, which does not have many players, you can do mixed teams like EST/VEN/INA for example;)

We wont all able to play :l

Why?:shrug:
There can me more teams for a country:shrug:
Like China 1, China 2 and China 3...
That would mean 9 players from China could play:D
If you have a country which does not have many players you can do mixed teams like EST/VEN/INA for example;)
:wavey:

This might confuse people up and yourself :shrug:

:worship: Adrian :D:D

i love your idea!! I think you should also run Hopman Cup here too next year!! :worship: I ran it in MTF this year..maybe u can do it here too ;)

I'm not 6 years old and the people aren't too:o
I would do it for everyone clear, who plays in which team...:)
Give me a/the chance to prove it will work:rocker2::fiery:

Some is younger than 6 :secret: Pingpongwing GO For it :D

:p question (and idea/suggestion to board members :cool:)

will there be any type of awards here? :D

Like..in the Off season

*manager of the year award
*best doubles team
*best singles player
*newcomer of the year
*newcomer doubles team of the year
*dissappointment of the year
*sportmanship award

:p

etc

these could be fun to see how people feel about their year and how people feel about other's year and to grant those ones some acknowledge and reconition of their devotion to the game ^^ :p

just a thought :D

I think there wouldn't be a TT without season-ending PRIZE POLLS ;)

I may be the responsible one, if any other board members have that much time to view the season... I think we should discuss and choose Nominations in a week or two and then I'll try to make it work and give TT players a chance to vote :)

:worship:

When will we open the 2009 thread? :p

I know it was opened in MTF but the itf hasn't got the challengers calendar yet :sad:
