China Open Final - Results

[dantuck_7]

Below are the provisional results of the Final Prediction Contest for the China Open.

Please check your score (and anyone else’s as you wish) and report any queries within 48 hours of the date/time displayed at the top of this thread. Any queries raised after this time will not be considered.

There was a two-way tie for first place, which could not be resolved by looking at high break predictions:
Actual: 127
Levon : 137
jrc750 : 137

The next criteria is who posted their prediction earlier...

Levon: 3rd April 2010, 07:33 AM
jrc: 3rd April 2010, 05:15 PM

Therefore, provisional congratulations to Levon for winning the round.

Please note also that Spike gained a bonus point (not included below but marked with a *) for correctly predicting the highest break of the round, which was Ding Junhui's 127.

[Mr P]

I didn't do that badly then

Thanks Dan. If I was going to be critical I would say the criteria of who posted there prediction first is unfair.

[cally]

I don't understand how people with 10-8 prediction got a point and 10-7 predictions never...

I have never read the rules of these prediction contests like, but ya know...

[Freddie Ng]

I did improve a lit.. Thanks Dan

[The Boss]

Well done to Spike for predicting the high break (usually my specialty)

I have never read the rules of these prediction contests like, but ya know...

Any 10-7's to Williams should get 1.5 pts... for being 1 frame out.

I predicted 10-7 and still got zero tho...

[dantuck_7]

Okay I'll have a look tomorrow, I think it's because you've quoted someone else's prediction after your own, so it looks like this was your last prediction to Excel!

10-8 Ding Junhui v. Mark Williams

H B 128

Are you sure you got that the right way round fella?...:snooker:

Meanwhile this type of prediction may not be accepted due to short player names. Take note people!

Ding 10 - 3 Williams

[cally]

Don't think it was nowt to do with my "quote" bud, theres a few with 10-7 predictions that got no points.

[cally]

All the hard work needs re-doing by the looks of it...

[dantuck_7]

Okay qoute the post numbers that you think are "7-10" and I'll have a look tomorrow. It was a 5pm job, so things might have gone pear-shaped. I did have 7-10 myself but then changed it!! D'oh.

I quoted hotspot cos i knew he had put the ding and mark prediction the wrong way round...I had to point it out to him cos he would'nt have slept for weeks if he never changed it, and his missus would'nt have been up for the mask thing if he made such a an error...:snooker:

Bit of a mess up on this one, think i might start checking the results a little more....

You really need to do this again bud, a few with 10-8 to mark got points and people with 10-7 to mark got zero.


Things i go through for a point eh...
