606v2 World Tour 2013!

by The Special Juan Tue 08 Jan 2013, 9:18 pm

I'm totally not ripping off prostaff's original topic..................

"606v2 World Tour 2012!

I thought it’d be fun to organise an ”official” competition during 2012 where 606v2 members give their predictions for Grand Slam- and Masters 1000 events. Obviously we’re all experts here, but it would be interesting to see who is actually the most knowledgeable expert Very Happy

The concept is as follows:

Predict the quarter-, semi- and finalists plus the winner of Grand Slam and Masters 1000 events in 2012
For each Grand Slam quarter-finalist: 10 points (8x 10 = 80 points maximum)
For each Grand Slam semi-finalist: 90 points (4x 90 = 360 points maximum)
For each Grand Slam finalist: 380 points (2x 380 = 760 points maximum)
For a Grand Slam winner: 800 points
So a perfectly predicted Grand Slam gives you 2000 points!
For Masters 1000 tournaments: same logic but only half the points of a Grand Slam

Predictions to be submitted on 606v2 (for each event I will open a thread) TBA (deadline reminders will be posted). So you have time to study the draws!
A YTD "world ranking" will be maintained and published by The Special Juan after each event.
No prize money, we play for the honour of being a true expert!

Below is an example of the type of table I will publish after each Grand Slam and Masters 1000 event of 2012."

Can legendkillarV2 defend the number 1 ranking? We shall see 606v2 World Tour 2013! 1347041234

Would be great if many of you participate on the "606v2 World Tour"!

Top marks for arranging this TSJ.

by The Special Juan Wed 09 Jan 2013, 11:51 pm

No problem. It'll give me something useful to do.

by Silver Thu 10 Jan 2013, 1:04 pm

Count me in! I'll be terrible but someone needs to make you lot look good Wink

Thanks for starting it up again for 2013 TSJ.

by CaledonianCraig Thu 10 Jan 2013, 1:05 pm

by CJB Thu 10 Jan 2013, 6:35 pm

I'll stick up a separate topic later. Do people want to wait until after the qualifiers or do you just want it up now?

by Guest Fri 11 Jan 2013, 10:37 am

Stick it up now TSJ and ensure the deadline is Sunday 12:00pm. Gives people enough time Smile

by The Special Juan Fri 11 Jan 2013, 10:53 am

by **laverfan** Fri 11 Jan 2013, 12:05 pm

Special thanks to the Special Juan (One!) for arranging this. clap

In the footsteps of legendary ProStaff85, the GP(oster)OAT debate will rage on for aeons.

by CaledonianCraig Fri 11 Jan 2013, 12:09 pm

Nice one Juan. ;-)

by summerblues Sat 12 Jan 2013, 2:04 am

LF, great to have you back from the off-season.

by The Special Juan Sun 27 Jan 2013, 1:09 pm

Updated. I hope it's all right.

by LuvSports! Sun 27 Jan 2013, 1:21 pm

im top wahoooo

by The Special Juan Sun 27 Jan 2013, 3:05 pm

My apologies to LK and Silver, I cheated you out of 10 points each picard

It's an outrage! Wink

At least I look marginally closer to MfC now though. Well done all, and cheers for updating TSJ clap

by Guest Sun 27 Jan 2013, 3:13 pm

Err.. Mr Summerblues, there's something wrong with the table. I've been mistakenly placed at number 15.

Please restore me back to the top.

Thank you

great job SJ!

by The Special Juan Sun 27 Jan 2013, 3:38 pm

Thanks

by YvonneT Sun 27 Jan 2013, 10:46 pm

Thanks TSJ.

Should my total not be 1960, as I didn't get any of the losing QFs right, but got the SF & F results spot-on? Two of my QFs lost in R1 picard

Also, Craig seems to have predicted everything bar 2 of the losing QFs, so shouldn't he be on 1980 then?

by CaledonianCraig Mon 28 Jan 2013, 7:30 am

Thanks Yvonne. Yes by my estimation I should be on 1980 as well. Janowicz and Cilic not making the quarters was the area I was wrong and that was it.

by The Special Juan Wed 30 Jan 2013, 3:03 pm

I've redone them (using a good ol' fashioned pen and paper) and I'll make the appropriate changes. Sorry for not doing them earlier, but I have a free day today.

I made cookies too Smile

by The Special Juan Wed 30 Jan 2013, 3:27 pm

It's done.

by The Special Juan Wed 06 Mar 2013, 6:21 pm

by socal1976 Wed 06 Mar 2013, 7:20 pm

Losing QFs: Federer, Ferrer, Del Po, Cillic

Losing SFs: Djokovic, Berdych

Finalist: Nadal

Winner: Murray

I think Murray should be well rested and the hungriest for this title of all the top guys.

by The Special Juan Wed 06 Mar 2013, 7:28 pm

Wrong thread!! Smile

by The Special Juan Tue 19 Mar 2013, 7:45 pm

Updated. I think it's ok but I'll go over it again tomorrow.

by The Special Juan Tue 02 Apr 2013, 9:10 pm

Updated.

by LuvSports! Tue 02 Apr 2013, 9:22 pm

haha and you're liking what you are seeing!

by lydian Tue 02 Apr 2013, 10:34 pm

Missing AO has killed me off already... Sad

by LuvSports! Tue 02 Apr 2013, 10:49 pm

What if jesus had said that lydian?

by lydian Tue 02 Apr 2013, 11:15 pm

Hey??? You've been sat on that throne too long Wink

by LuvSports! Wed 03 Apr 2013, 12:18 am

still there Cool

by Silver Wed 03 Apr 2013, 1:07 am

I call table rigging, we're onto you TSJ!

(Thanks for updating thumbsup

by sirfredperry Wed 03 Apr 2013, 9:02 am

Help me here. I see from the posts immediately above that some are able to see the scores for this and for other tournaments we've entered for this year. I still haven't even been able to find the 2013 AO results, despite some being kind enough to point me in the right direction. Having only recently mastered the manual typewriter I do need a bit of assistance here.

Try the second column of the above table. Failing that, I will post them up tonight.

The Champ will come good in the end. I will make the push on the American HC circuit like I did last year 606v2 World Tour 2013! 3845856932

Have found something edited on April 2 on a thread dating back to January ! Must be an easier way of getting the news through.

by The Special Juan Mon 20 May 2013, 3:39 pm

Updated. (Apologies to JHM, there was a problem when I went to add your points so I will rectify that soon).

by The Special Juan Mon 20 May 2013, 3:42 pm

Sowted, JHM your real points tally is 2920 and you're in 6th position.

by The Special Juan Wed 12 Jun 2013, 8:24 pm

by The Special Juan Sun 16 Jun 2013, 10:10 pm

It's been updated at the top of this thread (as it always is after a tournament Smile

)

by The Special Juan Sun 16 Jun 2013, 10:11 pm

Although I have to add there is a possibility of errors (unlikely though) as my laptop shut itself down when I was updating the table.

by LuvSports! Sun 16 Jun 2013, 10:20 pm

ahh sorry cheers bud!!! Very Happy

the housemates cannot be separated, good work!
