    How can mr.bulutangkis go from 306 @ 29 picks, score 8 on WS final and get 322?

    .
    WOW... There must be some errors in the calculation.

    Some of editing the PAW Statement like cut the dot "..." or add the space cause the PAWs aren't scanned in PAW Calculation. I need a few time to fix it them.
    In this case I have fixed those PAWs but forgot to add on Picks Summary to be calculated.

    Some of the PAWs which missed to be counted are :
    wilcan, post #205
    tehsham, post#217
    PoLLuX, post#228
    george@chongwei, #241
    etudiant, post#242
    MelvIndonesia, post#243
    Mr.bulutangkis, post#245

    Unluckily no one complain of those miscalculation. So I corrected on Final LT.

    Okay, thanks for the explanation. Thought that might be the case when I didn't see any 8 points in his picks summary.

    And how is your stomach? No trouble anymore?

    And next time: no numbered PAWS, no dots, no automatic pickup = INVALID ;):D (seriously)
    No numbered PAWs is like cheating all in itself, I don't even know how many picks my "opponents" are on at any given time ...

    .
    Regarding 'No numbered PAWS, no dots, no automatic pickup = INVALID', I have to agree.

    It's not only making Sandy easier to organise our PAW Games, but also for all our PAWers to follow who is picking who (to win).

    8 pts isn't counted, 30 PAWs already.
    My stomach is much better, I go work today (I am on the way go home now).
    On friday, my stomach was hard and hurt when eat any problem on absorbtion. This case also give problem on my respiration.

    About the rules, I can't implemented in stricter way. Many of player send their PAW via mobile phone. I used this format to be easier in doing PAW job. PAW number in Badminton are much much bigger compare with PAW in Tennis which WS or MS only.

    Perhaps, let us do the same for Badminton - PAW for WS and MS events only. :):):)

    Actually from the very beginning, I never thought that I can win this title due to the time difference. Thank you to you all! And of course a big thanks to Sandy for his effort in running the PAW game despite he was having sick. :( Please take care, Sandy. :)

    Wait BWF hold the tournament Men & Women separately like ATP & WTA.
    Different condition on Badminton & Tennis, Single & Double in badminton almost same attractive.

    So far the current way is best for me, I don't worry to the huge number of PAW like I felt it when run PAW Grand Slams. And I also did filtering that "dot & spacing" problem.

    Just the problem in this week, I was in Powerless condition, so forced me less accuracy than usual.
    I did PAW job little by little and release the LT in closed time before the final matches started, it didn't give enough time to player to re-check their points.

    Sorry for that, demolidor. Even me did not recognize whether there was point miscounting.
    Naturally, I try to number my picks. Sometimes, in busy time, I miss to do that.
    Next time, I take into consideration.

    Good luck for you in next 2 PAWs in this month.
    However, you team BZL did great job. Congratz to BZL


    Thanks Sandy for organizing this game. Take care more yourself and keep healthy.
    I do not discourage it even sometimes there is error in counting as it is natural.

    Also, congratulations to you finishing as runner-up



    Unfortunately, I disagree with this. Double events are really interested in badminton.
    IMHO, I think MD & XD are more interesting than MS & WS in both side (badminton side and PAW itself)
    Right now, best players in MD & XD do not only come from particular country. As in WS, it is just CHN.
    It bring to other consideration that may be surprise (big points, etc) from double event, also some upset, unexpected result.
    In Double, sometimes player play in scratch.
    Even, it will be challenging to have this criteria since first round.
    But, that will not be my proposal for now as it will get Sandy more jobs.
    This current PAW is okay for me.


    Finally, my congratulations to our winner, Suetyan. You deserved for this title :)

    In Badminton, Doubles are more exciting

    .
    I have to agree...... In Badminton, Doubles are more exciting. :):):)

    It is because Sandy mentioned that our PAW Games in Badminton is harder to organise than in Tennis. I thought it is better to reduce our PAW events. Perhaps, we can keep the Doubles but remove the Singles. :):):)

    Currently, Sandy is happy to include all 5 events (WS, MS, WD, MD and XD) in our PAW Games from Quarter-Finals onwards.

    Thank you!

    LOL, of course there are many people can defeat me in the next paw game. Because pawers unlike players, pawers are always inconsistent. :D
