its kind of correct when it also counts in groups like in our itst group!
we have now no winner in our group - is that good ? i think no !!

sure thats only my opinion- but i´m sure alot from our group,or other groups with same problem ,will think in same way

it's a tie, deal with it. let's say there are 5000 people who have the same score, why a random number in the final should separate one from the other 5000 places, it is better to give them the same standing.

It's not a big deal to me. I'm just unfamiliar with the rules since this is the first time I've done the 'ATP Fantasy' thing. I don't really care if I win or not, I just thought it might be a glitch or something...

Anyways I had a lot of fun, can't wait for the next tourney.

elargento i can see and accept your opinion in that case.

i only think forward totally different about -
i see no problem to bring this also in the groups .
thats much more interrest in my opinion.
how many times you will be the number 1 in the overall draw ??
NEVER?? ONE TIMES??.
so with that ;this last tiebreak prediction is totally senseless in my eyes coz you never will need it.

it's not senseless it has been implemented for prices purposes onyl. although i agree with you that within our itst, in case of a tie the thre should be a tiebreak. but globably i am fine that the tiebreak is only for the prices purpose only.

like i said earlier -i understand and see your point.

to be honest -i play this game not for the prices at all !! (thats 100% true)

i vote and play this game just for fun and to be number 1 in our group .
so its little sad that we can´t implant this tiebreaker in our group

well, in adition to that there should be statistics saying which player from the group won each event, because in two tns nobody will remeber who won rome. there are a lot to be improved in this fantasy game, let's hope they realise it soon.

Fed's lost the plot a bit these days.
I can easily see him getting beat in an early round.
In the tourney he's currently playing in, he's a set down to Montanes. He could of course still win that match, but his post aussie form has been far from convincing thus far.

Argh!This Madrid draw is tough...
Fed/Wav...Youzhny/Gulbis...Gulbis/Roddick...Verdasco/Karlovic ( :shock: The Ace Monster is back!Run!You fool!)...Nalby/Berdich...Verdasco/Nalby...Monaco/Soderling...I even have a Murray/Andreev that causes me some good headache!...I'll go with Igor :twisted:
But the toughest one for me is that Roddick/Gulbis...I just have no single clue!

Yeah some tough ones with gulb/rod if it was hardcourt I would definently go with rod but with clay there is a bit of doubt even though roddick still good on clay. Also fed loses to waw murray to querry , soderling tops verdasco and sadly monfils only gets to tsonga. Nadal wins obviouslyunless his knees explode. Oh also he faces ferrer in final, I'd like to see ferrer get to the final against nadal if that possible I don't want a fed nadal final the way fed is playing.
