Yes, this was also the problem last year as 6 ppl ended first. i can't believe they didn't change the format yet :mad: It shows how much they care about women doubles tennis :rolleyes:. Also this even starts Wednesday, but the first double match is Saturday..
Maybe we should think of something to make it more exctiting like predicting exact scores or adding other (single) picks or Mens double matches for this championships.
As it are the Championships this event hould be just a little more exciting. Let me know what you guys/girls think. :wavey:

I think predicting men's doubles matches would be very cool ;)

Confiriming but last year only 3 matches were played and 7 of us tied for no.1 spot!
CAD01: Black/Stubbs over Likhovtseva/Zvonareva
CAD02: Raymond/Stosur over Martínez/Ruano-Pascual
I think it makes no sense this way
maybe we do a combined of 5 YEC singles matches and 2 YEC doubles matches??
Yes I already asked if we should do it an other way this tourney, but not much reaction.
We can add single matches or mens doubles. points for each set seems difficult

you could let everyone do like 8 CADs, and 3 of them must be from the Doubles Draw??? You could make the other ones singles, but if you do that it kind of defeats the purpose of CAD, because you are guessing singles and not doubles. The other thing you could do would be use the men's draw. I'm not sure how many they have, but even if there are only 4 teams like in this, that would still be 6 CADs which is a lot better than 3...

yes I agree about the singles part. This is a double game, so maybe mens matches could be an option.
Men teams competition have 8 teams participating in round robin -> semis -> Final.

I just wanted to wish all the CAD players who qualified here the best of luck, may the best CADder win :) :hug: :wavey:
I hope to qulaify next year - if I played earlier this year who knows I may have qualified - I was pretty close this year after my title wins in Los Angeles and Moscow :p

Congrats silverwhite, daniela86, jrm and me for the title of the Masters! :worship: :banana: :yeah: :D
Well, not bad, better than last year, out of 16 players only us 4 won it! ;) :)
I did it for the 2nd straight year! I think Vale as well, but last year I took the doubles title alone and you didn't! :nerner: :lol: :p j/k ;)
Thanx all the guys who've put an effort on running the game this year! :yeah: :worship: :sport:.
Hope next season will be as nice as these last 2! See you all in 2006! :wavey: :bounce:

Well done to silverwhite, daniela86, jrm and Hantuchov! :D
I thought Black/Stubbs would win the final...I guess the one's who CADed Black/Stubbs in the final were unlucky that they blew a 7-6 5-2 lead but that's how it goes.
Thanks for another great year of CAD everyone, especially broncosven for being a commited and loyal partner throughout the year :hug:

Congrats, winners!
I'll wait for a proper League Table from Jarno, but I think it's only reasonable to allow the winners the ranking points.
See you all next year!
