'Dream Team' competition « on: May 23, 2007, 01:09:51 PM »
Sorry for posting this here, but we're trying to drum up support for the charity and the game we've set up...

Tennis For Free is launching a FREE "Dream Team" competition for Wimbledon, with a first prize of a £1,000 holiday up for grabs.
However, before then, just to try out the engine, we've setup a dummy run for the French Open.

You get £100m to spend - £50m for the men and £50m for the women. You have to choose ten players from each category.

I've set-up a mini league for the websites (this, GR.co.uk, BT.net, AM.com, B&S and TH) - Online Tennis Communities to see who comes out the best (it won't be me, that's for sure).

To join up to the game, go to http://tffdreamteam.com/frenchopen/index.php to select your team, then enter 6ee70977f15d577e3bc544bbf4e12932 as the password to join the mini league.

When a player wins a game, they win you a point. So a 6-1 4-6 7-5 6-2 win would earn you 23 points. Straight sets wins earns a further 10 points. A player reaching the semi finals earns an extra five, the final is 10 and winner is 15.

Remember, this is just the dummy run, so there's only bragging rights up for grabs. But, if you do join up, could you put (MW) at the end of your team name, so we can see which website perfoms best!

Entries have to be in by 12.00noon on Sunday, the first day of the tournament.

Hope you will join in and enjoy it ahead of the Wimbledon competition. And, from next week (hopefully) the donation button will be working if you wish to donate to the charity (strictly voluntary!)

Thank you for reading and apologies for hijacking with a shameless plug for my first post!!  Whistle

Is it your team that's murraysworld? If so, did you not get the authorisation email?

If you didn't, let me know and I'll authorise you from the admin section, now that we've got that bit sorted out.

I'll authorise it now, so she can go in and get her team sorted and join the mini-league - if she still wishes, of course

After taking the lead for most days, only to lose it nearer the end, Online Tennis Communities has a comprehensive lead in the mini leagues' league. But as it's my employers who are second I'm not going to gloat about it (much)!

mkkreuk maintains the overall lead, who is 50 points ahead of his nearest rival, Rob. But, as mkkreuk is in the under 18 league, I'm wondering if there's too much tennis and not enough studying going on!!!! lol

Eleven of the 12 members in our league, including honorary member Sadey, are in the top 20. It's only Steven that's just outside.

Day four tables:

Groups: Total Men Women Members
Online Tennis Communities 557.1 337.4 219.7 11
Tennis For Free 485.6 307 178.6 5
Flajsner Group 478 317 161 1
The PHLTC 467.1 285.3 181.8 9
Alex’s Alexians 459 250 209 1
Sugaronline 326.5 181 145.5 2

Individuals:
Mkkreuk’s Elite 682 424 258
Rob’s bunch 632 396 236
cazzas team 591 331 260
Clay Crazy (GR) 588 340 248
Johnnylad BT 585 337 248
Sadey’s Stars (GR)* 555 338 217
Reevey’s Legends 527 326 201

I hope more than one of you will register for SW19! I would hope the prizes would serve as a good incentive  pray

Naturally once it goes live I'll make another shameless plug!

Online Tennis Communities continues to lead the way, but the gap to my employers has been reduced slightly, and we have eight of the top nine places.

There is a new overall leader as Cazza hits the front. I'd like to think I'm staying in the chasing pack as it's a marathon not a sprint!  :p

Sadey, who was top of the standings for the first two days has now dropped to the bottom of our mini-league - not quite the way to treat honorary members.


Day 5 standings:

Groups:   Total Men Women Members
Online Tennis Communities 693.8 416.3 277.6  11
Tennis For Free  639.6 390 249.6  5
The PHLTC   601.6 356.2 245.4  9
Alexs Alexians  571 291 280  1
Flajsner Group  563 379 184  1
Sugaronline   436.5 216.5 220  2


Individuals:
cazzas team   794 466 328
Robs bunch   745 452 293
Mkkreuks Elite  742 452 290
Clay Crazy (GR)  724 414 310
LUKE CROLL GR  689 438 251
Vamos XI   687 410 277
Tennis titans GR  647 370 277
Marks Bunch Of Failures 634 368 266
BT    599 398 201
Reeveys Legends  595 367 228
Johnnylad BT   585 337 248
Sadeys Stars (GR)*  555 338 217


Overall top 22:
cazzas team 794
Johnnylad BT 776
Rob's bunch 745
Mkkreuk's Elite 742
ClayCrazy (GR) 724
LUKE CROLL GR 689
VamosXI 687
One Shot Wilko 683
Sadey's Stars (GR) 677
Moran Clan 671
Schaik 665
Jessy's Giants 660
Tennis titans GR 647
team matt 646
johnBT & AA 643
The Hackers & pop 640
Mark's Bunch Of Failures 634
I havent got a clue what I'm doing! 624
Usher's Irons 616
Big Baseliners 610

While I think on, there will be a delay with the updates for the first few hours of play tomorrow as I'm umpiring in Congleton. Apologies in advance for any inconvenience
