I had this problem the first few times I tried but it eventually clicked! Try entering the board name first.

@Bob in Spain; not to worry! BT has 8 entrants so it's all good! I will enter the individuals into the TEAM COMPS if the final tally is odd.
I'll also make a minor change to the formula that's been used, if that's alright with you, Steven?

@Sandman; good for you!

@Ratty & @blob; you guys are funny! But you know @Ratty, I think it's cool that you finally dropped by and read/commented on a BOTB-related thread, having seen these threads and having never read them before! ;)

lol @LordBrownof

And now I know who Alan Moore is! Thanks @korriban!

Less than a day left now! Getting excited :D

I have entered for us. I'm throwin a curveball or two in. I have Andy Murray to beat Tomas Berdych in the final. The other side of andys draw is def the weakest. I have Haas to take out Novak in last 16 though.

It's up to you how you do the teams formula, obviously, and there is no particular need for consistency if the results aren't going into the same ranking system. I've never claimed my formula was perfect though without seeing yours, I still think it was about as fair as it could get while still, if anything, encouraging rather than discouraging larger teams. Much better than anything the ATP has tried for their bracket challenge, too - though that's not hard, obviously! wink

I'd be intrigued to know how you're intending to tweak it though, but no hurry.

I would be very interested to know if anyone in any team, anywhere, predicted Rafa and Fed out by this stage.

If they did, I raise my hat to them.

I think everyone unless someone was not taking it as serious or just going out on a limb and hoping they would lose early... I know I haven't done well today with my predictions!!

Just looked at the current standings. What on earth am I doing so high up the list. Can't believe it and I know it won't last.

Still kicking myself over the Tipsy v Troicki result as well. So nearly put that down as an upset but lost my bottle just before clicking send and went back to change it.

You're down to 3rd place but anything's possible with the way the tournament's going! Everything's up-to-date (more or less)! See my signature for the links.

Wow. I was actually in the lead ? I didn't even know. In fact, the first time I looked, it took me so long to find my name on the list because I started looking from the bottom up !!

But as you say, still plenty of time to go back down to where I belong !!
