I think that Seeds that don't pick for Day 1 and make it to the end should not be eligible to win the tournament. It's the only fair way to do it. This is how I've worded it for the Miami tournament and put in the thread title for all seeds to read this rule.

I also think that Seeds who pick players on Day 1 who lose should still be eligible to win if there's a tie-breaker because it's for tie-breaking purposes only and they will be at a disadvantage by losing at least 12 games. The seeds have earned their bye and their Day 1 pick should not count for anything other than for games lost.

How many seed for Miami? I hope 32

I have a question.
Today in Stuttgart R1, Cibulkova had to play against Hantuchova, but Daniela retired and was replaced by Amanmuradova. Should I use Cibulkova picks and all Hantuchova picks replace by back-ups or use them in both situations?

The match changed at the last moment, so it's invalid now. For every player who picked Cibulkova or Hantuchova the backup will be used.

I have lived till 6-th day!
I was finished suicide in 2-nd day, but by not clear way for me have been reanimated.
My choice:
D2: Cibulkova
BU: Barthel
Hantuchova it is not mentioned in my picks, therefore there is no difference, it played or was removed.

And if Cibulkova has won and Barthel has lost? Then to me will include BU, and game is finished... Illogically somehow...

No. Only one tournament per week.

Can someone take a look on Madrid's thread?
We're 6 players on DAY 09 with no picks.
I am the only seeded, who received a DAY 01 BYE.
All the rest lost 2 sets and I lost 1 set. So, what's going on with the rule? Who is the winner?

I'd the impression that we look at lost sets and then lost games. Am I wrong?

delicatecutter · May 13th, 2012, 01:38 PM

I'm confused as well. I thought games lost was the first tie-breaker so why are people saying sets lost is. Did the rule change? And where?

these might be the ones suggesting Sets lost > Games lost

delicatecutter · May 13th, 2012, 02:01 PM

That post doesn't even make sense to me.

DAVAJ MKirilenko · May 13th, 2012, 02:36 PM

c) In the event that they are still tied, the picks who lost fewer sets when they were chosen, including the round in which the pick had lost, will be tallied. The tally which includes fewer sets lost, will be deemed the winner.

This is still what counts.

delicatecutter · May 13th, 2012, 02:53 PM

I am not seeing how they are still tied though. There is no tie after games lost.

Richie's · May 13th, 2012, 04:41 PM

Using b) (ONLY in the round that they were selected) both Serena and Azarenka lost 6 games on DAY 08
That's drive us to c), where I lost 1 set (not including BU Stosur on DAY 01 BYE)

So, what happens? Even if you count Stosur's lost set, it's 2 for everyone. Then if you head to d) I am the one who post first on DAY 08 and 09....
I can not understand this new rule and how we count the winner, in which order.

delicatecutter · May 13th, 2012, 04:54 PM

I thought the first tie-breaker for games lost was for all your picks over all the rounds. That's how I've always done it and always seen it done. I'm really confused now and I feel bad if you should win the tournament..
