I'll check to see. Anyway, I will add the scorelines again when this is over to make sure I did't miss anything.

So does leaving your prediction until the last minute. The only way to truly combat it is to do every prediction by PM.

Murphy has ruined my predictions.
Not only did he not win the match, but he didnt reach the Final. I was the only one left who had one player to reach the Final, in this case Murphy and would have got valuable bonus points.

Rankings after Semi-finals:
1. DanCat - 85 points
2. Andre - 80 points
3. KrazeeEyezKilla - 75 points
4. McManusFan, Pinky - 60 points
5 Carayip, Iranu, Eraserhead, Ck147 - 55 points
6. Jester - 50 points
7. Wildey, SF - 45 points
8. HappyCamper, Vodka - 40 points
9. PLtheRef - 35 points
10. SundayGirl, JB - 20 points
As far as I've checked, nobody picked these 2 are the possible finalists, so nobody gets any points.
Therefore, there a maximum of 15 points up for grabs if someone manages to predict the correct outcome and scoreline of the final. Plus the bonuses:
- 10 points for the maxi, but I pretty much doubt either of these 2 can make one.
- 10 points for those who predicted the player with most tons.
So that's grand total of 35 possible points. Those of you still competing for the win, please PM me with your predictions.
I'll double check tomorrow to see if I miscalculated someone's points or if I forgot something.
Good luck to u all, but it seems it will be a battle of the mods and KEK for the top spot.

Bingham 5 - 10 Carter
Not the result I would want, but I just have the feeling this tourney has Carter's name on it.

Mathematically, probably anyone that has more than 50 points. Realistically speaking, probably the top 3.

If you can mathematically win you’re supposed to PM Johnny rather than posting here, so I just wanted to double check.

If he does he’ll rob Gilbert of the high break, and that would be a shame
