A new leader but he has 2 out so I'll ignore him and say my 3rd spot is really 2nd.

Pickles still lives....

What has Eric ever done to you?

[murf]

Resigned this week!

[Shaggy365]

Sadly I fear my chance of winning this may be diminishing.

Same here. I lost my first player today....

I think everyone has lost a player at this stage.

Interesting that in the current top 10 only myself and Mr Pickles has Selby.

[Shaggy365]

Good luck everyone (seeing as I've been knocked out)

[murf]

Big match ups as the top 2 play each other - and also the next 2 - and, err, the 5th and 6th highest of those left. All victors will be wanting to draw the winners of bluenosey (19th) v Moist (13th) -or is it pre-rigged so I can't get them???

[murf]

Interesting that in the current top 10 only myself and Mr Pickles has Selby.

Only 3 FISOers without him!

PS Shaggy, is the main site up to date? Says it was updated at 10:52 (about when Fu/Robertson finished) but Robertson not in the dreaded red.

[polarbear]

Mixed feelings about the next round with Hawkins and Wilson versus Maguire and Higgins.
I want the Scots to win but The English players are in my team!

Whoops. Forgot to colour Robertson in red. It'll be corrected, but not until I get home.

Cool. A few hours remaining then of fooling myself that I still have 4 players left and with it a shot at victory.....

[Sport Billy]

I'm prepared to say this......the three peat may be a touch tricky from here. I need snookers you might say!

[blahblah]

Ding vs Ronnie is sublime, imho.

[Shaggy365]

Quite pleased with how the point scoring is going. The league table jumps around vigorously as I'm entering the frame scores. Still not all over, despite what Mr Sheepy might say.

[murf]

Ding vs Ronnie is sublime, imho.

I've got both of them in this so I can enjoy it with minimal care to the result!

You want as many Frames as possible

Live scores so far have me rising quite a few places

One of these days, I'll work on something interactive so that everything updates automatically. I'm guessing it's possible, but for the time being, I'll stick to typing a few numbers into my spreadsheet.

Anyway, tonight's update is done. Also worth mentioning that there hasn't been a late night so far. It doesn't seem that many years ago that the evening session used to run on past midnight many times.

I can send you my Excel sheet. It downloads scores every 30 mins and updates all the player points and scores for the competion.
It's pretty rough and ready though and not user friendly as only I use it

[Shaggy365]

All change at the top. Sadly I'm not involved though.

[Surprised]

Where did Lewis spring from?

[Surprised]

For some reason I have Kyren Wilson on 1204 points rather than 1184 points. Not that it makes any difference to the table!

[Shaggy365]

Here we go then.
Round 1 (2 x 10 x 22) - (1 x 6 x 38) = 232
Round 2 (2 x 13 x 49) - (1 x 10 x 38) = 894
Round 3 (2 x 6 x 46) - (1 x 13 x 38) = 58
Total 1184.

[Shaggy365]

Thus endeth the quarter-finals. Here is the one before the penultimate FISO league table.

[Shaggy365]

1. polarbear - 3989
8. murf - 5176

4. Gilchrist1983 - 6275
12. Sport Billy - 4273

2. nevblake - 8632
7. Kris_fiso - 1998

14. bluenosey - 6275
11. Moist von Lipwig - 6275 * Wins on earlier entry

Semi=final line-up :
8. murf (* 4 * * *)
4. Gilchrist1983 (1 * * * *)

2. nevblake (1 4 7 * *)
11. Moist von Lipwig (1 * * * *)

Hard to see nevblake losing, but you can never tell.

Round 1 (2 x 10 x 22) - (1 x 6 x 38) = 232
Round 2 (2 x 13 x 49) - (1 x 10 x 38) = 894
Round 3 (2 x 6 x 46) - (1 x 13 x 38) = 58
Total 1184.

Shouldn't round 1 be
Round 1 (2 x 10 x 24) - (1 x 6 x 38) = 252?
or did i get prices wrong and David Grace is 22 not 24?

[SamD]

Fwiw, agree with Surprised's scoring above.

And nevblake - like Surprised, with three of the four semi-finalists - looks odds on for a league and cup double:
Top 10 of 23 in Fiso table

• Pos - Name - Points
  1 nevblake 20,059
  2 SamD 19,929
  3 murf 18,998
  4 Surprised 17,699
  5 polarbear 17,555
  6 Gilchrist1983 17,515
  7 yorkshiredragon 16,491
  8 Spencer4 16,033
  9 Moist v Lipwig 15,657
  10 Brightwater 15,507
  10 morganb 15,507

[Sport Billy]

Erm.....your spreadsheet has me down for Marco Fu. My PM to you has John Higgins not Fu.

Whilst this will undoubtedly balls the cup results up, my league points are completely wrong as well.
