Playing FITD is simple and only takes a few minutes per week:
1) You just have to post a full predicted draw for the tournament, including all winners in all matches of all rounds.
2) Full prediction must be posted before the first ball of the first main draw match is struck.
3) PLEASE post your picks in the form "A def. B", "A d. B" or "A over B", and not "A loses to B". Writing down the winner's name only ("A" instead of "A def. B") is allowed, but it might make things confusing for us and you might lose points, so try to post as specified.
4) If a player withdraws after you have made your prediction, you may ONLY change your pick if the withdrawing player was seeded. You are not allowed to alter your picks if the player who withdrew was not a seed.
5) When changing your picks, you have to post it in a new post, quoting the previous picks. No editing under any circumstances! (any edited post won't be counted)
6) Scoring goes as follows: for each player you predict correctly into the next round, you receive the points for reaching that round. Note that you won't get points if the player has a bye in first round.
7) No commitments are necessary for the tournaments, simply post your picks in the thread.
8) You may play more than one event per week!

Good luck and have fun!

There wasn't a huge variation in the predictions for the first round matches, although Irigoyen/Molinero vs. Nara/Watson and Cornet/Gallovits vs. Dominguez Lino/Soler Espinosa did split opinion. Everyone has predicted an overall win for the No.1 seeds except for Kev (Dekmeijere/Groenefeld) and JujuCactus (Mirza/Voracova).

Because you got the other three quarter-finalists right. :p
I guess that 6th position will be my best position in this week.

Hey, would you guys want the rankings to go by how many points you get eg. 1080 or what position you finished in?

Final scores updated;
Everyone except Kev and JujuCactus predicted a victory for Peschke/Srebotnik, who swept aside Arvidsson/Erakovic with the loss of just three games so there was almost no chance in the overall positions.
