World Champs Qualifiers Prediction Contest!!! (RESULTS IN)
This contest will run from Saturday 5 March to Sunday 13 March 2011.
________________
- The contest will work as follows: Players entering will be all placed into groups, which will see predictors predict on the matches from qualifying rounds 2 to 4. The number of players we get will determine how many groups there are and how many players are in each group.
- For example, if we get 25 players then the groups will be split into 5 players in each, with the top 2 from each group heading into the final round of qualifying (which takes place between March 12 and March 13).
- The top 5 seeds would then be placed in to a group, one in each, and the other 20 players will be randomly assigned in a special, very exciting draw taking place on Thursday 3 March !!!
- If we get an uneven number of players, then a/some group(s) will just have to have less players than others.
- I aim to have 8 players going through to the final qualifying round, which will make Paddy's job as PGC points-distributor easier in handing out ranking points. Again, it will depend on how many entrants we get and I will confirm this at the time of the group-stage draw.
- The players who reach the final qualifying round will take 25% (rounded up for odd numbers) of their group-stage total into the final qualifying-round, at which point it will just be a straight 16 match prediction contest with the winner being the player with the most points at the end of the contest.
- Please confirm your entry by FRIDAY 4 MARCH 1800 GMT, around which time the group-stage draw will be made !!!
