The September Champs (tennis) IS NOT SANCTIONED by the ATP Ranking to make that pure.

[Torrumbarry]

Hi. The only way to do so is by takinv part in one of the event. Copy and paste this info to the tournament being held by Rarungan and your players shall enter the rankings...at a low, low rank. Unless you RP.

Ceni, are the ranks going to be re setted for 2015?

Britonisea is right - there is no formal application process or anything; just signing up for a tournament will do.

Also, men's and women's are intermixed here (it's different from RL)

No, ranks will not be reset for 2015; results from tournaments will be re-entered as they pass. For example, a player scored 270 points in the 2014 Electrum Slam and 900 in the 2015 one. The 900 will replace the 270, and so on for other tournaments.

I'll certainly RP then; what does that entail?

[Patistan]

Check it out.

What's going on 'ere

[Super-Llamaland]

...should something be going on?

[Britonisea]

...should something be going on?

According to the Schedule, yes.

[Ceni]

I'd like to take this opportunity to go over my proposed timetable for the next few months.

Week of October 6: Signups for Santa Maria Open, Santa Maria Open
Week of October 13: Santa Maria Open, signups for Kannapian International
Week of October 20: Kannapian International
Week of October 27: Kannapian International

The Stars Patistan Open has been switched with the Santa Maria Open due to the host (Patistan) having family issues.

Also, there will be a new rule introduced for the Kannapian Invitational. In addition to CTE nations, inactive nations will no longer be eligible for automatic qualification. Inactive nations will be defined as nations who (a) have not posted a RP in the past 3 months before an event; (b) have not hosted an event in the past 3 months; or (c) have not signed up for an event in the past 3 months. This rule is designed to encourage RPing as well as to allow nations with an intent of RPing to have more players in a tournament instead of players of nations who signed up for one event, got lucky, and don't give a hoot about RPing or even tennis in general. Exceptions will be made for adverse RL circumstances on a case-by-case basis.

Also, I have spoken with Rarungan about issues with the Manunggal Open. We will have an update about this situation as soon as I get something worked out with him.

That schedule for the month works for me. I'll have the signups for the Third Kinterten next weekend.

Kannap, aren't you supposed to be hosting a GS about now? The Electrum will hold the Hamilton Open. Estope next the nid for the WTF, right?

[Ceni]

Kannap, aren't you supposed to be hosting a GS about now? The Electrum will hold the Hamilton Open. Estope next the nid for the WTF, right?

Yes - but considering that his last activity was eight days ago and he hasn't responded to either of my TGs, we might have to put some feelers out to find another host. Then, yes, Hamilton Open, Estope Open, and WTF.

Hello? Anyone here? Anyway., I would like to bid for The WTF when lines open as I haven't hosted a tennis tournament this year.

That's not a problem - when the time comes, we will accept your bid.

We shouldn't call it WTF.

Why not?

Because WTF has a whole different meaning you can't say WTF all the time, it's like saying prfanities all the time.

Don't worry about it! It was kinda funny looking back on it...

[Super-Llamaland]

I remember when I tried to make a "World Tennis Federation" and then realized at the last second that I needed to change it to WTA.
