So then, down to business regarding predictions
The current table doesn't include the predictions of SavoMilosevic for these were handed in after the deadline but before the commencement of play in the matches predicted. As it stands these predictions won't be counted due to them being made after the 10am deadline on Tuesday morning. The main reason for this having discussed it with Wild is that having strictly applied the rule twice to other entries, it would seem unfair on those predictors to then allow leeway for a third. Other avenues have been explored, (including rescoring those entries since discounted for being past deadlines - but that has seen a potential major shift in the contest scoring - moving the entrant to within touching distance of the lead and it was felt that it wouldn't seem fair on those who've made all predictions on time should the rescoring have played a role in the outcome of the eventual contest.

As ADC did say there are rules - but he's aware of the elastic on them - particularly in sending predictions when technically he should've been disqualified in 2014

Good lad Paddy, rules are rules - and you enforced them like I said.

I Did tell PL that the deadline was there so any predictions after that time should not be accepted.

No point giving deadlines if they aren't enforced

sorry Savo nothing personal.

You couldnt really make a template like this

SEMI-FINAL - MATCH ONE - BEST OF 33 FRAMES - DEADLINE ANYTIME BEFORE ROB WALKER SPEAKS
17-17 BARRY HAWKINS [5, ENG] v SHAUN MURPHY [8, ENG]

SEMI-FINAL - MATCH TWO - BEST OF 33 FRAMES - DEADLINE ANYTIME BEFORE ROB WALKER SPEAKS
17-17 JUDD TRUMP [6, ENG] v STUART BINGHAM [10, ENG]

There needs to be a defining time

The reigning world champion has been screwed. Disgraceful.

Temporarily locking the thread whilst scores are calculated ahead of the Final. players able to win will be asked to PM predictions for the Final

Here we go the big one

Scores in squared brackets represent the maximum score a player can achieve in the contest now. - Vodkadiet and BarryDoherty54 have been credited with six points for predicting Shaun Murphy to reach the Final. Should Shaun Murphy win the final then they'll be credited with six more. Likewise if Murphy makes a Maximum in the final AC or LT? will receive 12 points for that prediction.

Can players in bold please PM their predictions to me as Mathematically they can still win the contest
