That was definitley a strange match. At the end though, you strung together some good returns to break me, while I just couldn't convert on my chances.

I was hating you after that match too.

Honeslty, I think my serve sucks right now, considering I have 90 on serve and how I used to serve. But I can't complain; I've only been using my current serve animation for like 4 days now.

whats the problem with serve? AND WHY YOU SWITCH SERVE ANIMATION?no need for that,your serve was excellent in past

[Rob ITST]

Because I'm playing from the baseline. That's the big problem for my serve right now - the timing is so different when I'm not holding RB.

I also didn't like serve A for baseline, because he steps into the court too far after hitting it. E is best imo.

Played Djarvik today - very nice match - beat him 6-3, 6-4, using a new charakter - after the match he told me he had problems against me using RT that much - I'm very glad about that, cause in fact I hardly used RT in this match, but my new char seems to have super natural-power.
That's really strange, cause I think I created exactly the same player (and I really mean exactly the same) for around the 5th time, and this time he seems to hit the ball slightly more powerful than before - strange...

Is his height exactly the same? I (think) I've noticed that my tall guy has a bit more muscle behind his groundstrokes.

You're imagining things. Weight, muscle etc makes no difference at all.

played anil tonight and won 6-4, 6-4. But he was using his realistic roger federer player. If he was using his real player, it would have been bad news for me. Good match anil, u can still play well when even using a realistic setup.

[Coolhand Texas]

played anil agin later in the day and i won 3-6, 6-4, 6-4. He was using his power drusonov player this time. It was a close and intense match throughout. We each had a 11 break point oppurtinites. i converted 2 and anil converted 1. Anil got most of his oppurtinites during the last 3 games but i was able to come back each time and serve out the set to win.

These games were marathon games, often going as long to see which player would fall over from pure exhaustion.

good match anil.

Had 2 games with Norberto today. Lost both. 6-4 6-3, 7-6 6-4.
I had the most fun in a while! I was able to adjust to Norberto's power game (to a degree) and from that point it became extreemly fun match!

We had long rallies, good serves, aces, return winners. We had it all.

I have got to admit, Norberto is extreemly smart player. Yes, he is powerfull, but he can play a smart tennis game as well....and that is scary! I have got a taste of it today!

Good job Norberto!

[Coolhand Texas]

Djarvik you beat me today 7-5, 6-3. But my serve was not seeing a good day. You handled my power quite nicely, looks like im going to have to throw in some different angles next time we play.

[Coolhand Texas]

played Rob tonight and it was a heck of a match.
I won 3-6, 7-6, 7-6. It was my first win against Rob, he was using his baseline character that he uses to play in itst. It was a wierd game because he ended up with more points than me. He had 109 points and i had 101. Thats probably because he had a ton of winners during the first and second set, he risks very well and he doesnt have that many unforced errors.

Good game Rob, but i got lucky.
(I know u wont let me get the win next time)

[djarvik]

Today was my first win against the guy that I thought I will never be able to win. Norberto. I used to hate playing him, now I am LOVING it! Such an incredible match! I think most guys see Norberto as a power player, but I have discovered, that if you will handle his power and actually return the ball to him... he is Extremely smart player. Anyway, it was 7-6 4-6 7-6.
Here are the stats, very clean and well played match!

Norberto is on the left, me is on the right:

[Rob ITST]

Don't you mean Norberto is on the left?

[djarvik]

Don't you mean Norberto is on the left?

AHRHHRRH yes! Stupid me

Nice result What is even more impressive is that by looking at those stats, you would think Norberto was the winner. 97% of first serves in for the match is a superb stat
