RE: 2010 Australian Open 'Battle of the Boards' pick 'em


Good luck everyone - my entry was done in about 10mins so not expecting anything.

Steven - Something seems to have gone wrong on the 'top 250 allocation' as showing places available as -2.

That's not the number of places left for people in the top 250, it's the number of places that would be left for people outside the top 250 if everyone else in the top 250 entered by the deadline.

So in other words, there was already a chance that 2 entries already received would end up getting rejected if everyone else left in the top 250 entered, but of course they won't - the maximum number from the top 250 that we get is usually around 200, i.e. about 80% of them.

Don't blame yourself S&V, blame those players. IT'S ALL THEIR FAULT.

AND WILL REMAIN SO UNTIL I CONVINCE MYSELF OTHERWISE.

Mardy Fish = Mardy Scratchy no
Why oh why did I have him to go fairly deep!

I'm actually happy for once, but I know it's just that 'pickem rush' you get when a few results early on seem OK. Once the Gems start Gemming, and the serial flakers and bottlers kick in, I'm going to be miserable/angry/frustrated/homicidal along with everyone else.

But for now, Duckula and Fish going out is great news as far as I'm concerned, as I have Luby getting to R4.

Not for long. Just had a couple of shockers.

Was nice while it lasted.

I think someone else had him getting to R2 too - checked the % picks analysis earlier and it seemed he'd already won!
