Back in a mo ......

Sorry for the delay, I'm sure you are all in suspense ;) Let's keep you there a bit longer then with my analysis and good predictions speech roflmao

The Womens were fairly smooth, but no one backed Cetkovska; Shaughnessy caused problems for many, WB, Scolios and Pebs got the exact score :clap: The tricky Obziler/Wozniaki match was profitable for lots of us. :wacko: Best upset was SG who picked Dushevina but not in straight sets. :ok: Only Choka picked Zvonereva to drop a set and got the tricky Olaru/Harkleroad match spot on so well done :clap:

The men's had a few upsets. No one picked wins for Lopez, Mirnyi, Petzschner, and 3 matches ended in retirements. Only a few picked Young, only Ob got the exact score :clap: Isner was always capable of an upset but only Wise and SG got the score right :clap: SG was also the only one to pick Bollelli to win, and although the Verdasco v Mathieu match was always going to be a tricky opener, only Pebs and Choka got 3-2 to Verdasco :clap: Capdeville v Schuettler was a tricky one, Ob and Wise got the winner and Miss SF/SB/Felix got the score bang on :clap: Lee did not inspire much confidence against Hrbaty, but Ob/Sb/MissSF picked him and Choka and SG were bang on :clap:

It's hard to call a prediction of the day, but the predictors of the day where the tricky ones are concerend seem to be Choka and SG as they keep cropping up. I'll keep an eye on them ;) roflmao

Scores in 5 minutes promise! :)

The SCORES - out of 95

Wise/WB - 50
Miss SF/SG - 49
SB/Ob - 47
Choka - 46
Viva/Pebs - 44
Liam/Sam/Fah/Jo - 43 (2/0 - 3/0 system)
Felix - 41(out of 74)
Scolios - 40
Serena - 39


Well done to Wise and WelshBoy :clap: :clap: :clap:

See you all tomorrow, after that I need a :cheers:

Woo, I'll settle for that! Shame about the way today's predictions are going though. :unsure:

Thanks for all the hard work SB! :ok:

No worries matey :ok: Good start for you eh? :D MIne are nto goin so well either. I think my upsets I picked will upset my score! LOSE LJUBCIC, LOSE - he noramlly does! roflmao

i forgot i'd had the 2-0/3-0 system for yesterday. not a bad system that, is it SB? ;)

let's see how pear-shaped it goes after today :P

roflmao

It wasn't bad but it wasn;t that kind today in my humble opinion, compared with how profitable it seemd at Wimby. The men's system was not great, but saved by loads fo 3-0 defeats.

Thank you, SB, for doing this. The amount of work involved must be collossal, but believe me, the pleasure the rest of us get out of it is at least comparable. So :hug: :cheers:

Cheers Scolios! :hug: I'm having a :cheers: now as a reward for the hard work :D I don't mind doing it at all for special occassions liek Slams. As I can't watch the USO this helps me keep up with it!. :wacko: Oh and I used to eb an auditor once and have ha dmuch worse things to check and add up believe me like importas and exports of dodgy tax evadign compnaies.

Not a bad start to my first predictions contest :)

Sadly I leave on wednesday so my last 4 days will have to be 2-0/3-0 :rolleyes:

Thanks for all your hard work SB :hug:

i'm starting my open rather quietly :P

No worries SG, glad you could enter. :ok: That's handy then, 4 days away and my rules fit perfectly for you :D I nearly plumped for 3 days allowed of the system, but changed my mind. Had to do something as clarification was needed at the outset to avoid any unsatisfied customers. Hopefully .... roflmao

Worryingly quiety Viva! I'm sure you'll be creeping up there soon, and that worries me! :o

i would love to win my first major, but we'll see ;)

Did you not win one on the BBC? Or was that something else?

:o SB this must take you and Liam hours! :hug: thank you so much for doing this :)

not entirely sure how I didnt keep my usual spot on the bottom but am sure I will drift that way soon enough... :unsure:

I am back at work next week (training on Tuesday so hopefully early finish and back in time to put my predicts in) but back officially on Weds so if I am running late and miss, can I have the 2-0 thingy please?

Sure :hug: I di dPM you - did you get it? I wonder as it seesm Pms go missign form time to time when I get these damned computer glitches.

:blink:

I'll double check - sorry hun, it may be me at fault - its been a week of change in the house :blink:

on a separate note - hope you are feeling better now hun and will PM you asap :hug:

yes, i took one on the BBC. i just meant on this board.

Oh right :) I only ever won on the BBC, Wimby '06. Doesn't look like I'll be winning much on here :rolleyes:

thats coz i was abroad during that wimby :P roflmao

Yeah, yeah ........... :rolleyes: roflmao

You might have bene King fo Clay and King of Hard, but you are NOt gonna be the King of Grass! roflmao

no you are welcome to that title, ive bet youve smoked a whole lot more of it than i have roflmao roflmao roflmao
