NOTE: Due to the dramatic increase in PAW player sign-ups in the past few weeks I am limiting new player commitments. Anyone wishing to sign up for PAW must have been an active board user for at least 3 months from the 15th of January 2004.

note: this rule may change at the managers discretion


G'day PAW Players,

To validly enter a tournament, players must post a commitment to their particular tournament.

For all these PAW tournaments in January & February, there can be an unlimited amount of players, except for:

There will be seeds for each tournament (based on the PAW rankings) which I will post on the first post of each PAW tournament. Remember you can only commit to one tournament per week.

For the Hopman Cup, there will be no ranking points, but it gives an opportunity for players to gain good match practice heading into the Aussie Open (remember the score is dervied through the average points complied by a country), and the countries that perform well, will be in running for the PAW 2004 country of the year award.

Remember you may change your commitments but you must state so in this thread, before the deadline.

I also want to emphasise that player swill only be allowed two LATE/INVALID entry/entries, in which they will enter as a wildcard. Players MUST commit in this thread to play their tournaments, and that is the rule. :)

I'm sorry to confuse you...

Your version of the calendar matches the version currently on the WTA website... I think mine was an older version...
The key is Scottsdale... if it had been cancelled, then it makes sense that they switched Doha to March 1 and made it tier 2, and in order to have 3 tournaments in a row in Asia they moved Hyderabad a week ahead.

Anyway, I only want to commit as far as Tokyo at this moment...

Jan 5: Auckland
Jan 12: Sydney
Jan 19: Melbourne
Feb 2: Tokyo

So my original version was right???!!!!

Jeez, this is confusing? Please clarify?

Spikey, would u do the commitment list today? I wan to see my position! :D

So my original version was right???!!!!

Jeez, this is confusing? Please clarify?

Your version is the same as was on WTA website last night.
My version was downloaded from WTA website a month ago (on October 1st to be precise), so apparently the original calendar you posted is the latest version.

I'm terribly sorry for the confusion...

The cause of the change is apparently the cancellation of a tier 2 event in Scottsdale on the 1st week of March (just before Indian Wells, that next year is a 2 weeks men&women event like Key Biscayne).
WTA moved the tournament in Qatar to Scottsdale's slot and upgraded it to tier 2. That has caused a gap between Hyderabad and Dubai, which is now the 1st tournament in the Middle East, so they moved that tournament a week forward to make a 3-in-a-row series of Asian hard courts tournaments. That has left Paris the only tournament in the week after Tokyo, with 3 tournaments the following week - Antwerp, Memphis and Hyderabad. It's very unusual to have a lone tier-2 tournament, but that's the best solution in this situation...
The biggest loser is Memphis, which remains the only tournament in North America in February. I don't expect many players outside North America to make the trip there.
A better solution IMO was to move Memphis to Scottsdale's slot, but apparently the organizers didn't have the money needed to upgrade to tier-2 (and Qatar had), or had other prior commitments for that week and couldn't make the change.

I commit:
-Gold Coast (Tier III)
-Canberra (Tier V)
-Australian Open (GS)
-Tokyo (Pan Pacific Open), Tier I
-Hyberabad (Tier IV)
-Memphis, Tier III

Hopefully I won't forget to come back after this loooong break!!

:lol:

Sorry for the confusion,

My original schedule WAS RIGHT!!!

So I have changed it back to it.

All players who posted Hyberabad commitments during the week of Feb 9th will be moved to Paris (only tourney that week).

Similarly players that choose to commit to Qatar the week after (which doesn't occur) then will be moved to Antwerp. They can post replacement commitments, if they wish.

For example, I originially posted to play Hyperabad during the week of Feb 16th, so I will stay there.

# commited to 2 tournaments on the week of 16.2

Thanks nitsansh, this makes it a lot easier for the PAW managers when doing the PAW lists each week.

Keep it up :) :wavey:

thanks nitsansh... you are so organized... this game looked more
'proffesional' .

just wondering who you........... :clap2: :yeah: :hug:

I commit to:

Thanks nitsansh, this makes it a lot easier for the PAW managers when doing the PAW lists each week.

Keep it up :) :wavey:

And no less important... it helps players to keep track of their commitments...

After processing commitments of 20 players (I estimate about 50 posted commitments so far), I see a problem... on weeks of multi-tournaments there is huge unbalance between the tournaments... for example on the week of January 12th 16 of 20 players made commitments for Sydney, and on the week of February 23rd 17 out of 20 commited to Dubai... I expected that, but not a huge unbalance like this... it would be ridiculous to have on the same week one tournament with 60-70 players and another with barely 10 entries...
I think there should be a solution for this situation, and in fact I am developing that solution and will present it in a few days...

I add more commitments:
Paris
Hyderabad
Dubai (would they allow Israelis to enter the country?)

I commit to:

Gold Coast
Sydney
Australian Open
Tokyo
Paris
Antwerp
Dubai

My opinion if we have 2 or 3 tourn in one week, the entries should be limited in the highest tourn and who already committed in the highest tourn before will be move directly to lower tourn. And no limitation entry for the lowest tourn.
Also if only 1 tourn in a week all participants can entry. Thanks

That was roughly what I was thinking of...
At this moment, on the week of January 12th there are 34 commitments for Sydney and 4 each in Hobart and Canberra... on the week of February 23rd there are 35 commitments for Dubai and 6 for Bogota...
It's not that bad on the week of January 5th... Gold Coast has 26 commitments and Auckland 13, but only 2 players are committed to Hopman Cup and I'm afraid it will be cancelled...
On the week of February 16th the commitments are 20 for Antwerp and 11 each in Memphis and Hyderabad... that week suffered from the calendar confusion (which was my fault...), and there are 2 players who posted commitments to Hyderabad while it was on Feb 9th and are also commited to Antwerp or Memphis, and on the other hand several players made commitment to Qatar that isn't played on that week...

# commited to 2 tournaments on the week of 16.2
$ posted commitment to Qatar on the week of 16.2

I totally agree that we need to post a number of limit for the players in a tournament in order to spread it out.

After the US Open, I did propose a solution that there is cut-off for the "main" tournament each and I limited a certain amount of players - plus 3 wildcards.

However, the players didn't like it....

However I do think we need to reinforce this rule, only 4 players in Hobart and Canberra, is just not enough, considering 34 commitments for Sydney.

I hope you can help nitsansh...

Of course, the commitments list is far from final... but the trend will likely to continue...
I think we should put a top limit to tournaments (I like to make it clear, this is NOT applicable in weeks of one tournament!) and a bottom limit...
maybe in the case of Canberra and Hobart, if there are less than 10 players in each tournament, we better cancel one of them... even if we divert the "excess" players from Sydney and divide them between the 2 small tournaments, we'll have about 20 in each...
The main question is... how do we decide which players will stay in the big tournament and which will have to move to other tournaments?
By order of commitments? By ranking?

By ranking. (ie the top 50 players that commit to Sydney by a certain date are entered)... can be different for different tiers...

Thus it would be a good idea to order the players' commitments by their ranking (end of year rank)

i commit to
Gold Coast
Sydney
Australian Open
Tokyo
Paris
is that ok??? or r they too close to each other?

i agree with this whole "ranking to get in" thing... but i only enter the big tournmanets because i know the players better and how they play, plus i go for more points because so far i havent really done 100% to my potential

as for the extra amount of players.. i also agree that players should be forced to play lower tiers if their rankings permit them to... but a heavy crowded tournament is not always a bad thing... for example... i placed 9th [my best finish ever] in pattaya... and the amount of people playing PAW in pattaya were obscene

also, i do not think you should inforce these ranking systems until after all the tournments that were available for committment are completed [ie after the week of February 23rd]... another possiblity is to start that after the austrailain because as a relatively new player in PAW i have not yet played a grand slam... so it is unfair to those who just joined to have no points from grand slam while the top 50 all do, thus placing them far ahead... give us time to show our talent

spikey :wavey: just keep in mind these are stricly MY opinions... you do NOT by any means HAVE to follow them... just giving my input into a game i love

There will be no limit to a grand slam, i can guarentee that.. :wavey:

I also believe that their should be "entry ranking cutoffs" for all of the events...I was supportive of this decision when proposed earlier in the year and still feel the same.

I also believe that their should be "entry ranking cutoffs" for all of the events...I was supportive of this decision when proposed earlier in the year and still feel the same.

Yep the PAW management team is strongly considering this.

Stay tuned during the off season for the latest developments.

I still disagree with number players limit, but agree with minimum number players for lowest tier tournament.
Case of Sydney (Tier II), Hobart (Tier V) & Canberra (Tier V), if too much players commit in Sydney and less players in Hobart & Canberra and then cancel it. I think its better with only one tournament can play, this is "Real Competition", all players can play in a game.
In recent week so many newcomer PAW Players play well and get tittle although they have low PAW Ranking, I think its unfair if they can't to play in big tier (also big pts) because Ranking Cut-off .

I have spent the last few hours working on a proposal for entry system, and there it is in great details...
Basically I suggest that if it's decided to control the entry to high tier tournaments (usually tier 2), the quota of places should be divided to 2 sections: direct acceptance, which will be based on ranking, and qualifying, which will be based on results of tournaments on the previous week, thus giving all players an equal chance of qualifying. Also there will be a small number of wild cards which will be mainly awarded to new players.


A proposal for entry system

The problem:
In weeks of 2 or more tournaments, there might be a situation that the commitments list is unbalanced towards one tournament, which has by far more commitments than the other(s). Therefor I see the need to introduce an entry system that will balance the number of players in the tournaments played simultanousely.
The system will be used only in case there are more than one tournament in a week, there's no intention to limit the number of players if there is only one tournament in a week.

Data:
# of players in latest tournaments:
Moscow 48........Tokyo 22........Total 70
Filderstadt 55...Tashkent 21.....Total 76
Linz 45..........Luxembourg 32...Total 77
Philadelphia 56..Quebec 24.......Total 80

We see that from a total of between 70-80 players, 48-56 played in the bigger tournament while 21-32 in the smaller one. With the exception of Linz and Luxembourg, the # of players in the big tournament was more than twice the # of those who opted to play in the small one.
Naturally, most players prefer the bigger tournaments with more ranking points on offer.
From data of commitments to tournaments in January and February, the trend continues even further:
After 43 players posted commitments (about half the estimated # of active players), on the week of January 12th there are 34 commitments to Sydney (tier 2), and only 4 commitments each in Canberra and Hobart (both tier 5).
On the week of February 23rd, there are 35 commitments to Dubai (tier 2) and 6 to Bogota (tier 3). At this moment, these are the most unbalanced weeks, and I see a possibility that there will be over 60 players in one tournament and less than 10 in the others.

Should we let that happend?
I don't think so... I think there should be a solution in order to make the # of players more balanced in those weeks, and here is my proposal:

Entry system will be used to balance the # of players in tournaments in these cases:
1. If the # of commitments in one tournament is over 50, or:
2. If the # of commitments in one tournament is over two thirds (67%) of the # of commitments to all tournaments on the same week.

How will we decide which players play in each tournament?
I suggest a system similar to the entry system in tennis professional tours.
1. A quota of participants in the tournament will be announced no later than 3 weeks before the start of the tournament. Let's say, for example, that this quota for Sydney will be 40 players.
2. The total quota will be devided to 2 sections: Direct acceptance and Qualifying. Let's say that for Sydney there will be 24 players entered by direct acceptance and 16 by qualifying.
3. The players entered by direct acceptance will be the highest ranked players on the commitments list, determined by the ranking list of 2 weeks before the start of the tournament (for Sydney that is December 29th, which is actually the current ranking list).
4. The players entered by qualifying will be those who got the best results in the tournament(s) on the week before the tournament in question (Gold Coast and Auckland in the case of Sydney), from the list of players who committed to the tournament and didn't enter by direct acceptance.
5. If a player who entered by direct acceptance withdraws from the tournament until a week before the tournament, IE before the start of the qualifying tournament(s), the next highest ranked player on the commitments list will enter the tournament.
6. If a player who entered the tournament withdraws after the start of the qualifying tournament(s), the next player in the qualifying will enter the tournament.
7. The players who enter as qualifyers are those who got the highest # of points in the tournament(s) on the week before the tournament in question, regardless of the tournament they played. If there are several players with the same # of points, the players who have the highest ranking among them (according to the ranking list published before the start of qualifying, IE the week before the tournament) will enter the tournament until the quota is reached.
8. Players who fail to enter the tournament by direct acceptance or qualifying could enter another tournament on the same week for which no quota of players will be set. If there are 3 tournaments per week and the entry system will be in use, players will be asked to name a 2nd choice tournament if they make a commitment to the big tournament in which the entry system will be used.
9. In addition to the quota of players entered by direct acceptance or qualifying, there will be a number of wild cards (maximum of 5) that will be given by the tournament director (manager). In general, wild cards will be given to new players in PAW game or to players who commited to the tournament and due to exceptional circumstances were unable to play in qualifying. Normally, players who would have entered by direct acceptance are not eligible for wild cards. New players, for this purpose, are players who joined the game recently, and they will be eligible to enter as wild cards for a maximum of 3 tournaments during their first 6 weeks in the game (2-weeks tournaments are counted as one week, and weeks in which no tournaments are played are not counted).
10. Aplications for wild cards should be sent directly to the tournament director (by PM), until Thursday on the week before the tournament.
The tournament director will announce the list of wild cards, including alternates (in case a player who recieve wild card enters as qualifier), no later than Saturday before the tournament. There will be no late entries in tournaments which the entry system will be used.
11. Players who were just outside the cut-off in qualifying can make themselves available to enter the tournament as lucky losers, in case a player withdraws during the first 2 days of the tournament. Players who entered the tournament should post picks until the end of the 2nd day or confirm their intention to participate until the end of 2nd day. If a player fails to do one of these, he will be considered to have withdrawn and the next player in the qualifying who made himself available for entry as lucky loser will take his place. A player who made himself available to enter as lucky loser must not post picks in the other tournament while he wait to see if he enters.
12. Players are free to make commitments to tournaments and change them until 2 weeks before the start of the tournament in which entry system will be used. After this deadline, the commitments list for this tournament will be closed, and players may only make commitment for other tournament(s) on the same week.
13. Unless otherwise stated, the deadline for commitments is midnight GMT on Sunday 2 weeks before the start of the tournament in question. If at this time one of the conditions for using the entry system has occured, IE there are more than 50 commitments for the tournament, or more than two thirds of all commitments on the same week, the entry system will be used to determine the players who can enter this tournament.
If there is no need to use the entry system, there will be no limit to the # of players in tournaments on that week.

...imo ... there shouldnt be qualifying that messes up everybodies week if we all want to play and we cant because we didnt have a good week

im very for the division of poeple accoridng to ranking into seperate tournaments... but really qualifying is making it like a dictatorship lol

no offence nitsansh

also.. it would seem that you wouldnt benifit from your own rules, seeing as you ended 2003 ranked 147 in 2 less tournaments than i did

I would like to change my commitment: Antwerp instead of Memphis (let's go for the big points...)

Thanks!

my commitments:
Gold Coast
Sydney
AO
Tokyo
Paris
Antwerp
Dubai

nitsansh, I'm with you for all those proposals.

Rule 11 will cause concern to some players like Lee-Waters' Boy or others, who don't have regular computer access.

I agree with the 50 competitiors and the 67% rule.

:lol:

i commit to sydeny, australian open, tokyo, paris

The debate on the entry system is very important, but I think it's not in the right place, so I'm going to make a new thread and copy the comments into it.

Qatar

Hopefully I won't forget to come back after this loooong break!!

:lol:

My new list is:

Gold Coast
Sydney
Australian Open
Tokyo
Paris (Open Gaz de France)
Antwerp
Dubai

Notice the change from Qatar to Antwerp...

This should be right.

What happens if you commit to a tournament and realize later on that you won't be able to play?

Can someone let me know?
Please PM me.

What happens if you commit to a tournament and realize later on that you won't be able to play?

Can someone let me know?
Please PM me.

The right thing to do, if you know that you won't be able to play, is to announce your withdrawal, so that the tournament director will not have to put you on the list of players and create a record for your picks that won't be coming...
And also, if my proposal for entry system will be accepted, it will allow another player to enter the tournament in your place, and possibly eliminate the need for qualifying process in order to determine who enters the tournament.
At the moment, there is no penalty if you make a commitment and "don't show up" for the tournament, and no one yet (as far as I know) has suggested that...

Current # of commitments:
Jan 5: Gold Coast 28, Auckland 14, Hopman Cup 2.
Jan 12: Sydney 37, Canberra 5, Hobart 4.
Jan 19: Australian Open 47.
Feb 2: Tokyo 47
Feb 9: Paris 39+6?
Feb 16: Antwerp 24(1), Hyderabad 12(2), Memphis 10(1)
Feb 23: Dubai 38, Bogota 6.
The ? for Paris represent the # of players who commited to Hyderabad while it was put by mistake on Feb 9, and presumably would want to play in Paris as it is the only tournament on that week.
The figures in brackets on the week of Feb 16 are the # of commitments of players who commited to Hyderabad while it was on Feb 9 and also to Antwerp or Memphis, and now have 2 commitments for that week.
There are also players who commited to Qatar while it was in error on Feb 16 (instead of Mar 1), and some of them have no commitments for Feb 16 now.
The projected # of commitments, assuming there will be a total of 80 players who make commitments, are 48-24-3 in Gold Coast, Auckland and Hopman Cup, 63-9-7 in Sydney, Canberra and Hobart, 41-20-17 in Antwerp, Hyderabad and Memphis, 65-10 in Dubai and Bogota.
The projected # of commitments in Sydney and Dubai are well over the required # or percentage for using the entry system according to my proposal. Gold Coast is nearing the threshold, but as this is the first week of the season the qualifying system is not applicable.

I Commit to:

Week of January 3rd: Gold Coast (Tier III)
Week of January 12th: Sydney, (Tier II)
Week of January 19th: Australian Open (GS)
Week of February 2nd: Tokyo (Pan Pacific Open), Tier I

what will happen if there isnt enough entrys to a tournament. will it be cancel, if so, when will you notify us :unsure:

PAW Players that commit to tournaments that end up having insufficient commitments, will be forwarded to the highest tiered tournament to have enough commitments, for that week.

The Player may otherwise choose to commit to the other less high-tiered tournament (in the case of 3 tournies per week), but must state so in the current PAW Commitment thread before the deadline.

Full Explanation covering all PAW Rules will be posted before Christmas.

Thanks nitsansh :yeah:

I'll post the commitment lists up this week.

Excellent Job guys, Thanks ;)

are their limits to the amount of people who can enter an event????

For example the gold coast has 43 people committed thus far.

Will ALL 43 get to play or do only 30 make a cut???

From the PAW Rules and FAQ's thread:

If there is two/three tournaments a week:

If each of the tournaments has a minimum of 12 commitments before the deadline, two/three tournaments will go ahead.

If one of the tournament fails to reach 12 commitments, those players who committed to that tourney are automatically forwarded to the highest tiered tourney of that week (in the case of 2 tournaments per week)

Since Auckland already has 18 commitments, both tournaments will go ahead.

Remember there is no such thing as cut-off in PAW (by rank).... If you commit to a tournament and there are over 12 commitments, you are automatically in that tournament regardless of rank/ne thing else....

if the tournaments have alot of entries, say 80 or so, will the points be doubled because of the high amount of entries :shrug:
for example, say that there are 80 entries at amelia island. normally you get 195 points if you win. will the points be doubled if the tournament is even bigger :shrug:

hmmm i hope this schedule brings me luck ;)

Well since Amelia Island plays host to 48 WTA player entries, it is the same for PAW. Rankings are distributed as follows:

1st --- 195 ...... 13th --- 27 ...... 25th --- 13 ...... 37th ---- 6
2nd --- 137 ...... 14th --- 25 ...... 26th --- 12 ...... 38th ---- 5
3rd --- 101 ...... 15th --- 23 ...... 27th --- 12 ...... 39th ---- 5
4th ---- 80 ...... 16th --- 21 ...... 28th --- 11 ...... 40th ---- 4
5th ---- 65 ...... 17th --- 19 ...... 29th --- 10 ...... 41st ---- 4
6th ---- 57 ...... 18th --- 18 ...... 30th ---- 9 ...... 42nd ---- 3
7th ---- 49 ...... 19th --- 18 ...... 31st ---- 9 ...... 43rd ---- 3
8th ---- 41 ...... 20th --- 17 ...... 32nd ---- 8 ...... 44th ---- 2
9th ---- 36 ...... 21st --- 16 ...... 33rd ---- 7 ...... 45th ---- 2
10th --- 34 ...... 22nd --- 15 ...... 34th ---- 7 ...... 46th ---- 2
11th --- 32 ...... 23rd --- 15 ...... 35th ---- 6 ...... 47th ---- 1
12th --- 29 ...... 24th --- 14 ...... 36th ---- 6 ...... 48th ---- 1

I know it is a difficult situation with more and more players playing and some gaining no ranking points in a week, and that is something the PAW Management team are working on for the future (2005 season).

I'm working on a proposal now, I'll get back to you, k :wavey:

i commit to:
Antwerp and Dubai!!
Keep up the great work Spikey

broncosven

You committed to both Dubai/Bogota on week 7. I will automatically take in the first one you listed (Dubai), but please state so if she would like to play the latter.

nave 2

You committed to both Hyperabad and Memphis on week 5, I have taken in the former but please state so if you would like to play the latter.

Skip Canberra and will play Sydney, thanks.
Alrighty, this is my final decision... I'll play Canberra if they have 12 players. If not, I'll play Sydney!

:bounce:

:woohoo:

Current Commitments:

Week 1:

Gold Coast: 52 competitors
Auckland: 27 competitors


Week 2:

Sydney: 60 competitors
Hobart*: 9 competitors
Canberra*: 10 competitors


Week 3:

Australian Open: 82 competitors


Week 4:

Tokyo (TPP): 81 competitors


Week 5:

Paris (OGF): 72 competitors


Week 6:

Antwerp: 44 competitors
Memphis: 16 competitors
Hyperabad: 17 competitors


Week 7:

Dubai: 64 competitors
Bogota: 13 competitors


*If Canberra & Hobart don't reach 12 commitments before the 1st of January, the players from the one with the less commitments at the time (at the moment - Hobart), will be automatically tranferred to join Canberra, and vice-versa.


It is evident that the a greater distribution of ranking points needs to be considered especially for lone tournaments per week (ie 81 competitors in Tokyo, but only 28 would get ranking pts, as of the current system)... I am attempting to resolving this problem, but it is rather difficult, and feedback would be appreciated.

:) :wavey: :angel:

I'll change my commitment from Sydney to Canberra
