[The Statman]

Below are the provisional results of the Quarter-final Prediction Contest for the Shanghai Masters.

Please check your score (and anyone else’s as you wish) and report any queries within 24 hours of the date/time displayed at the top of this thread. Any queries raised after this time will not be considered.

There was an eight-way tie for first place which was resolved in the following way:
Number of matches with winner correctly predicted:
cap, Maija and pat39: 4;
austrian girl, JPK123, Nina, RaNeN and Stunshot: 3
These top three were then separated by total frames difference between actual and predicted score:
cap: total 6 frames’ difference;
Maija: total 9 frames’ difference;
pat39: total 8 frames’ difference

Therefore, provisional congratulations to cap for winning the round.

Note also that Graemespeak gained a bonus point (not included below but marked with a *) for correctly predicting the highest break, which was Dominic Dale’s 127.

Is my total 5 then? (3+2)

The season just started and we already got 2 blunders!!!

Now corrected, Sir.

I am leaving room for improvement! If everything worked perfectly every time you'd have nothing to moan about!

[snookersfun]

congrats Pat!!! and all the others up there
3 is good (great company) and would look even better if one's name would be something like
aaa_aaa_snookersfun.

[PaulTheSoave]

At least you corrected it the right way! Hat off!

First I wanted to count all the scores for all the other members whether you came with the correct result, but in the end I even found it a bit far fetched!

[samasnookerfan]

Think success must have gone to my head!

[Nina]

Congrats to cap and everyone in the top group - and of course to Graemespeak who predicted the high break!

[Alex0paul]

Thank god Dott and Day won their final frames. I don't think I could have handled being bottom again.

[JoanneT63]

Did you miss me out The Statman, think I should have had at least 2 points......?

[PaulTheSoave]

I was two times on the list initially. for 3 and for 2 points. I made 3 points so I guess your name should have been with the 2 points.

Third bummer within a week!

[JPK123]

Go me!

If Matthew had won that final frame, I'd have been top outright, but joint 1st/4th is good enough for me!

[JPK123]

[Sorry for the double post but can't edit.]

I probably wouldn't have been top outright would I?

[RaNeN]

Yay! I atleast managed to win a round! Congrats to everybody!

[googlefooger]

Congrats cap, not bad for me either.

[pat39]

Well done cap and Maija.
