Again, edited my pist with a bit more. You are quick with your responses
My wife tells me that also!

out of interest, can folks see voting before they vote? I cant so assume others also cant? Ibe decided not to say exact votes this time round, just scores as opposed to names, to avoid giving too much away.
If you look at the thread when not logged in you can see the scores. Can then log in and vote, after which the scores will appear for you again.

Ha, dont give the game away!

Indy - check your messages, I think you may have misread the groups! Check again against the list above - or it may be me!?

Just to confirm, the groups are drawn as per below

Semi groups will be assigned from round one and will be Semi 1 - A1, D1, B2, C2, A3, D3 and Semi 2 - B1, C1, A2, D2, B3, C3 - regardless of gender or singles/doubles background etc, just the way the round one groups fall.

As I PM'd Jon, was me temporary mixing up two of players

Though essentially I still think a clearer top 2 in one of the SFs than the other where I can see 3 in contention.

The semis polls will be posted sometime late afternoon, similar start and finish time to the opening round, going through to Thursday. The final will then run Friday to Sunday, again evening to evening.

Last years round one groups averaged 44 votes with 47 on average in the two semis. This year, round one averaged 53.25 (20 percent up on last year) so a similar increase on the semis into the mid 50s would be great. Group A in the first round got 55 votes which is a record in any PoS vote, so thanks for that. Our record ever was in a PoM vote earlier this year, when we reached 59; hoping we may break that with one of this years PoS votes in the semis or final, more likely the final.

Semis end today; my plan is to put up the vote for the final tonight and run it through to Sunday night; an extra day compared to earlier rounds but it feels to me like the 4 finalists are going to be very, very close to choose between and it will allow us a full weekend for people to think, vote and, most importantly, every vote to count.

Semis groups close at 7.30pm, final poll will be posted sometime later this evening, perhaps around 9 pm or 10pm, it depends!

So the final will be between Henry, Jake, Katie and Sonay and should be very close and hard to call.

Jake and Sonay won both their groups to date, Katie won her opener but was second to Jake in the semi; Henry was second to Katie initially and then Sonay later.

Not sure if that tells us anything as with a different mix, and other players out, the votes could go any which way.
