Is it? I don't think so, for example:
Aleksandra Wozniak
Na Li(if Radwanska - then Radwanska)
Tathiana Garbin
Vera Zvonareva
This is where Ula actually got placed, and as I said - if Radwanska then Radwanska, so my first round pick is not valid and:
Na Li(if Radwanska - then Radwanska)
Vera Zvonareva
Na Li pick of second round is not valid either whoever gets to win, as Ula got placed in that spot of draw and I have noted "if Radwanska, then Radwanska". You see, that's just like posting the draw after qualifiers got placed, I just didn't have time to do so.

Oh well - it's probably for the best - I had Bammer beating Safina.
Maybe I should have read the rules...

Yeah sorry the no editing rule is the only one we're really really strict about

Well done to the top scorers this round, they got 27/32 winners right

You can change, but it has to be in a new post

I cannot follow what you're saying at all. To me, "Na Li (if Radwanska - then Radwanska)" means:
1) You are picking Li to win her First Round match, unless
2) Radwanksa is placed as the Qualifier assigned to play Li, and, therefore,
3) you are picking Radwanksa to win instead.
Is that what you're saying?

Yes, and it doesn't give me any advantage.

Whether it gives you an advantage is moot. You simply can't create hypothetical draws. The rules do not make provisions for such contingencies.
