Juan carlos Ferrero - Foreman
Guillermo coria - ??? (avaliable)
Jennifer Capriati - ??? (avaliable)
Amelie Mauresmo -??? (avaliable)
Albert costa - ??? (avaliable)
David Nalbandian - ??? (avaliable)

ok, these are the entrants who can predict, and their respectable players. The five players with "avaliable" by Them are free to choose rom.

Right this is how it works. Just like The fifa and PES3 tourneys, you predict the answers to win points, as well as prize money. you will get a ranking, the "entry ranking" and the "champions race". You will also have all your players start off with battered trainers, wooden racquets and orange shirts. however, if you predict right on certain questions, your player gets an upgrade. This is based on real life matches, but you king of have "fantasy prize money and features". if you dont get any of that just ask me, or just predict, and you will gewt the hang of it.


Right, the opening match is between Tim henman and juan ignacio chela, who has just won in the french open, and i will be following thre matches closely. First of all here are the entry rankings (these stay the same, but the chamions race is like ther premiership, it changes):

1. Roger Federer
2. Andy roddick
3. Juan carlos Ferrero
4. Lleyton Hewitt
5. Marat Safin
6. Guillermo coria
7. Venus williams
8. Tim Henman
9. Kim clisjters
10. Mark phillouposis
11. Justin henin-hardene
12. Amelie mauresmo
13. Albert costa
14. Greg Rusedski
15. David Nalbandian
16. Jennifer Capriati


HERE IS WHAT TO PREDICT ON:


FREE BET 1: Who will win? (50 points, £500 and a sponsorship deal)

FREE BET 2: How many sets will there be? (20 pts, £200 and a new pair of oasics trainers)

FREE BET 3: How many aces? (100 points, £700 and a racquet upgrade)

FREE BET 4: Who will win first set? (30 pts, £600 & new shirt)

FREE BET 5: Who will win the last set? (60 pts, £500 & sunglasses)

FREE BET 6: What will be the score in the first set? (40 pts, £400 and a new racquet grip)

FREE BET 7: What will be the score in the last? (40 pts, £400 and a re-strung racquet)

FREE BET 8: Will there be any tiebreakers? (40 pts, £300 and a pair of nike shorts)

FREE BET 9: If so, how many? (50 pts, £600 and a sweatband)

FREE BET 10: Who will win the most of their service games? (200 pts, £1000 and a reputation multiplyer of 2)



oh, yes. a reputation multiplyer is well it multiplys how many points you have earned this week, by your reputation multiplyer

e.g. if you won 600 points, and got FREE BET 10 correct, you get 2x all the other points you have earned so far!

I'm impressed B.L Jnr, I wasn't sure that this was gonna work, but you seem to have got it all sorted out. Looks like one of the better tourney things on SR as well.... Note: this could be because I am doing well...

Will this continue throughout the year i.e Wimbleydon, US. Open etc...?

Thanks Colourless. yes, this will run through various tournaments, including all of the grands slam. Queens club is next on the tennis calendar, so i will find a registered player who is palying in that1 (i think i'll do roddick, the holder)

How about instead of picking one player, who could go out early or get injured, you spread it over a couple of players and cut out some of the more difficult predictions(the aces one springs to mind)
