note to admins ... please don't post Round 4 scores until all Round 3's are done and I have a chance to download the data. Thanks

#ed_op#i#ed_cl#Ace,#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#Peter asked that we do not input scores for the 4th rd 'til he has a chance to download the data. Thus, I went in and deleted the scores for the 4th that you inputted. #ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#I assume he'll notify this thread when he has completed the download. #ed_op#/i#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#

#ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#@ #ed_op#b#ed_cl#rex#ed_op#/b#ed_cl#:#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl# oh come on.. I was not reading this and wondered why the scored were not there. I thought something was wrong.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#Peter knows we can't do that. We talked about this before.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#When matches are over, people want to see the ranking. We can't wait 5 hours before entering the scores.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#There are links for individual Round Rankings at the bottom of the Ranking Page... We added that as a compromise after we had this discussion.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#So we can't go back on that compromise and hold the ranking hostage.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#

#ed_op#font color="brown"#ed_cl#@ #ed_op#b#ed_cl#rex#ed_op#/b#ed_cl#:#ed_op#/font#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl# Sorry you didn't know.. But it's not 'my game and my decision'. This is something we've already openly discussed here and we found a compromise. It's not some dictatorship. I coded the individual ranking as a compromise. When Peter needed more data and is ready for his stats, he takes out the last scores he doesn't want, gets the data he wants and puts the scores right back. But we don't wait. The scores has to keep flowing in if a Commish is available to enter them.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#I thought that was a closed debate.... long ago.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#

I took out the scores to determine the R3 detailed rankings and put the scores back. Someone should double check for accuracy.

Incidentally, whoever put the Stosur loss back in had entered W24 for Ostapenko, but W24 is Stosur's ranking. What??? She was playing herself and losing ... typical Sam ... but, sorry - that's a no go!

Anyway, please check for typo's and we're good to go!

P.s. Thanks for the support, rex. This wouldn't be necessary if the round by round rankings, which I greatly appreciate, had the D V Q breakdown. Anyway, it's no biggie ... Ace has done a great job with the SKAN.

Round 3 ... JazzNU continues to lead the pack, on the strength of awesome Domination points. As of R3 there were only 2 fully intact teams:

*Pandacris
*Laughing Cavalier

For some reason - I thought there was another day of Round 4 Action. Not so, so here we go /// with the R4 results. Pandacris surges to the lead as a result of being the only contestant with all 6 players surviving through the 4th round, which is really quite remarkable. Pandacris' full team comprises:

1. Nadal
2. Halep
3. Wawrinka
4. Pliskova
5. Mladenovic
6. Nishikori

Earlier I had remarked on how JazzNU was competing strongly despite having lost a player, due to very high domination points. So I took a look at the data to see what was behind this. Turns out JazzNu is the only contestant to have picked Cilic, and placed high up in the #2 seeding. That's been the difference for JazzNU. Well played!

Quarterfinals are done, and Pandacris has widened the lead ... substantially, and with four of the semi-finalists in hand will be tough to catch.

Which tier are you in?
