Welcome to Pick-a-Winner (PAW), the Predictions game!
Playing is simple: over the course of the tournament choose any 13 matches in the Main Draw and post who you think will win them. Anyone can play, any time. ('Commitments' are not required.)
You can play the Gold Coast game or the Auckland game, but not both.
The game can be played using this thread, or by using the PAW Webpage (http://members.aol.com/simonbr120/private/paw_now.html). This post is updated once daily - the PAW Webpage (http://members.aol.com/simonbr120/private/paw_now.html) may be updated more often.
(Please check out the Introduction (http://members.aol.com/simonbr120/private/intro.html) if the game is not self-explanatory.)
Congrats to #40-ranked sandg on your first title. VeNuS FoReVeR was very close in 2nd place, with KoolManSteven [#24] in 3rd.
