00:00 | *Jean* (FRA) vs (2) slowvin (CHN) (TB2: only difference is that Jean predicted the first set would go to Vera)

:eek:

it's obviously not written in the TB rules

the real score is Zvonareva 6-3 6-2

my pick is Zvonareva 3-6 6-4 6-3

if jean's pick is
6-3 *-* *-*
or 6-2 *-* 6-3

he'll win

otherwise I will make TB2 even at least

I win because I predict 6-3

:tape: Sorry, you do win....

I'm reviewing all of these matches with Ruisantos, no need to panic...

No, that's not what decides here :confused:
If you don't believe ask Ruisantos or Meelis or In The Zone or whoever, I surely don't think it's the right explanation, cause you used a rule that doesn't exist (cause you would have also say: denijs gave a second set to Vika which indeed happened)...

You both chose Vika and you have the same score and sr's.

Tb1:
Shuai.P: Vika Azarenka 64 36 63=28 games
You: Azarenka 5:7 6:4 6:2=30
Real Score: 6-1 7-5=19

Shuai.P wins cause he/she is closer.

You can use the TB1 till the end unless you chose the loser Denijs.

Luis was right with the winner but not with the explanation.

Looking at it.....

02:03 | Geo Tennis Fan (GEO) vs (5) HenryMag (POR) (no more diffs remaining)
02:03 | ShuaiP. (CHN) vs *Jean* (FRA) (no more diffs remaning)

I really hope I didnt have a false joy and I will qualify for the QF :o

ok so decision of slowvin's match after consulting Ruisantos:

TB1 doesn't decide.
TB2: slowvin has 28 games, *Jean* has 26, real score has 18 games. Therefore *Jean* wins according to the 'closest score' rule. It should be mentioned that both have a correct set but in the wrong position.

that was close :drool:
congrates Jean ;)

SF!!! :bounce:

You both chose Vika and you have the same score and sr's.

Tb1:
Shuai.P: Vika Azarenka 64 36 63=28 games
You: Azarenka 5:7 6:4 6:2=30
Real Score: 6-1 7-5=19

Shuai.P wins cause he/she is closer.

You can use the TB1 till the end unless you chose the loser Denijs.

Luis was right with the winner but not with the explanation.
Now everything is clear and good, old explanation was made up without being connected with TB rules ;)

Well I have to apologize to everybody for my poor running of this event this week. It was crazy as hell, and the champion almost lost because of my lack of knowledge of the rules...:help: I'll try and run events in the future, but next time I'll be sure to know the TB rules back and forth. :)


See you all next week! :wavey:

congrats to hotel! close final.

Well done to denijs/libre83! :yeah:
