Playing
F-I-T-D is simple and only takes a few minutes per week. Here is what you need to know:
1) Just post a
full predicted draw for the tournament, including
all winners in
all matches of all rounds.
2) No commitments are necessary for the tournaments; simply post your picks in the thread!
3) You must post your full prediction must be posted
before the first ball of the first main draw match is struck. Any draws posted after this time
will not be counted.
4) Please post your picks in the form "A def. B", "A d. B" or "A over B" or writing down winner's name only, and not "A loses to B".
Please post
players' last names, not nicknames.
5) Picks
can be altered only
if a seeded player withdraws after you have made your original prediction. Again, new draws will only be accepted before the first ball of the first main draw match is struck. You
cannot alter your picks if the player who withdrew was
not seeded.
6) When changing your picks, you must post in a
new post, quoting the previous picks.
NO EDITING UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! (any edited post will not be counted, no exceptions!)
7) Please keep your picks as your own and
DO NOT copy and paste other poster's picks. If you do this this will be taken as cheating and your picks
will not be counted.
8) If the qualifiers are still unknown when posting your picks you may add them as "Q" or "QUALIFIER". It would be really helpful if you could
give each qualifier a number (e.g. Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4). This is essential if two qualifiers have to face each other as you will have to
specify which qualifier you pick to win (e.g. Q1 def. Q2). If you do not do this, that particular pick will not be counted.
9) You
will not get points if the player
has a bye in first round.
10) Scoring is
based on the WTA ranking points for each round of a pro tournament: for each player you predict correctly into the next round, you receive the points for reaching that round.
Example: International Quarterfinals
You picked:
Kirilenko def. Petrova
Wozniacki def. Chakvetadze
Schnyder def. Dementieva
Zheng def. Dulko
The actual winners are Zheng, Kirilenko, Wozniacki and Dementieva.
You will get 130 (points for reaching semifinal) x 3 = 390 points.
11) You may play more than one event a week, but only your
best result will be counted.
12) The ranking points will be awarded according to a chart:
