You only predicted one quarter final while you still had 6 predictions remaining for the whole tournament. The 4 available was only for the quarter finals.
Sorry but I think I've won.
This. The number of predictions under that table was the number of predictions available for that particular round.

Here is the table following the Semi-Finals
104 KOLOMPAR 24 - 6 (29/30 - 2 Jokers) - Max 110
96 BADSNOOKERPLAYER 18 - 5 (27/30 - 2 Jokers) - Max 101
84 PLTHEREF 20 - 4 (29/30 - 1 Joker) - Max 109
81 ERASERHEAD 16 - 2 (27/30 - 2 Jokers) - Max 87
79 ANDRE147 24 - 3 (29/30 - 2 Jokers - Max 86

42 GALLANTRABBIT 14 - 3 (25/30) - Max 63
37 SNOOKERFAN 14 - 3 (27/30) - Max 59
Predictions are now open for the UK Championship Final. Entrants must make at least one prediction in this round and should have made a total of 30 Predictions by the end of the round. Any entries who have not made 30 predictions by the end of this round will be deducted one point per prediction 'missing' e.g. make a total of 28 predictions will see two points deducted
For the final, the scoring system is 4 for the correct winner and 2 extra for the correct score.
Usually I would ask for predictions from players who can still win the contest to be PMd to me, but obviously as I'm still in with a chance of winning, that wouldn't be fair on Kolompar. I've messaged Sundaygirl to ask if she is happy to receive our (mine and Kolompar's) predictions for the final unless anyone else wishes to

This comp proved to be as much about strategy as prediction
And it turns out I suck at both :(

Reported?
I think the Lü-Joyce match was the decider between us.
Now let's see what PL went for. Needs a correct score I think?

Thanks to all who have taken part, hope people enjoyed the format as something a little different to the usual Prediction contest formats. Any feedback is welcome

Thanks PL - it was a great comp. Thanks for all of your efforts in organising it.
Well done Kolompar on your victory - hope it is not lessened by your decision not to tell me I could have predicted on more matches even though you knew this well in advance. Well done.

Thanks for the contest. I liked the format. You should do this again, maybe for the German Masters or the Welsh Open perhaps

Thank you PL for running such a smooth contest. I know from experience these 128 tournaments are tricky when you're running the predicts.
This format had such strategy that I think it pays dividends to make the most predictions in the 1st and 2nd rounds, the results are in theory easier to predict then. That's what Kolompar did and why he won.
