Jamie B's Live Ranking During Week 10 (USA F6)
Permalink  

The New Table is posted here (on britishtennis.net)

(Re- posted after Jamie's victory in USA F5)

As this was week one on Indian Wells last year, there's no points to defend, so no- one drops behind Jamie.

Delgado lost in Bogota qualifying. Dorsch is still in Las Vegas qualifying.

There's 18 points on offer at the US F6 Futures. If Jamie wins the tournament, he could climb as high as 210 (his career high is 211).

Players who can overtake this weekend:
Dorsch, if he qualifies in Vegas. He must beat Mirnyi, then Luczac or Vemic.

Rob: - ATP, ITF and I (not that the last one is relevant!) have Jamie's high as 211 - what do you know that we don't?

Touché - comme ça.

Start - Accessories - system tools - character map - select, copy and paste.

But it is so much of a hassle I usually don't bother!

There's a very nice path towards that magic 211 opening up ahead of Jamie: Garcia, Junquera and Delgado lost. Only Greul winning.

Behind, Alves jumps onto the table, winning in Bogota. Gard won in Morocco.

No news yet from Kyoto. Go Bloomers!!


What- if for Wednesday:
Jamie has 179 points and is sitting at 220.

If Jamie beats Grilli in USA F6, he'll have 180 points.
He won't overtake anyone.

Whether Jamie wins or loses
He could be overtaken by:
Lugassy,  if he beats Bloomfield in Kyoto
Alves, if he beats Kendrick in Bogota

Best case, he stays at 220. Worst case he loses 2 places to 222.

Lugassy can overtake on Wednesday morning if he beats Bloomers in Kyoto.

Agreed, that is too much hassle, whereas the Alt Gr-e method is very simple but doesn't cover everything, e.g. Alt Gr-a gives you á when for French you need à.

Another quick method when you need accented characters just for the odd word is to use Alt+the numeric keyboard (i.e. the number pad on the right, it doesn't work with the numbers near the top of the keyboard), but you need to remember a few ASCII codes, e.g. for French:

Alt+
130 = é
131 = â
133 = à
135 = ç
136 = ê
138 = è

(if you want letters with umlauts for German, try the numbers missing in the above sequence)

If you're typing a lot in one language though, it's best to go into Control Panel / Regional & Language Options / Languages tab / click the Details button and add in any languages you think you'll need - this is the way to do it in Windows XP anyway. Then you should see a little "EN" in the taskbar which you can switch to any other languages you have set up when you need them.

The drawback of this last method is that your keyboard will start to act completely like the standard keyboard in whichever language you have picked at the time, e.g. on the French keyboard, W and Z will be swapped as well as all the accented characters becoming available.

Some languages like Polish cleverly have an option that keeps the keyboard the same as the English one but makes the Alt Gr thing that freerider mentioned work for the characters in that language, e.g. if you select PL as your language, Alt Gr+s, l, L, a, e, o, z, x will give you , , , , , ó, , , etc, meaning (for example) that you can spell the name of former president Lech Wasa or the town of ód correctly.

Edit: this works almost everywhere but not on this board, which as you can see, only seems to recognise ó and ignores the other Polish characters! furious

Apologies for aiding and abetting the hijacking of this thread, Rob wink
