Thanks TTW! Yes every team would need at least 5 players and exactly the way you explained. I want to talk to Floris about the point ladder as well. I really need some help on coming up with should we say a tier of points?


A chat would be the best way to talk about this. You have any means of doing this? MSN, Skype, FB chat or anything like that.

I'm not sure but I was hoping we wouldn't have to do any country specific teams. Only because there would be like too many USA players, not enough in let's say Brazil. Although it's World Team Tennis, I think we can bend the rules a bit? :? Thanks for you feedback by the way. The planning process is going to need A LOT of feedback and maybe at least 50 sign ups before this is even possible.

I dont know how the points would work but just a proposal

200 points for MS win 150 for WS 100 for pro and a 100 for TE.

Maybe could do if the captain loses the other team get bonus points say 50. An for a clean sweep get like 250 bonus points. Not sure about the captains bonus but thats just arough mock up I made in my head.
To win is to achieve success. To compete and lose and try again is greatness

I really like getting shitfaced. :P I miss it though. :(. The points could be refined an if there is a tournament knock out style maybe that could be a different system idk. But need to get the interest up first. Just flash your Jubblys for every sign up. :lol: :P

I'm in if the 2 singles are played on Tennis Elbow, and the double in TS4 ; TS4 requires far less skills and tactic than Tennis Elbow, there's then no reason it should be the minor game played in that competition.

One day, TS4 will be completely forgotten, and everybody will play TE here, you'll see ^^

To be fair...TE seems to be thriving, but it doesn't have a WS tour yet...that is why I'm pushing to have 1 MS match and 1 WS match to be played on Xbox using TS4...now each World Tour Tennis match will consist of 5 matches played...now for here that would mean, 2 Xbox matches using TS4...that leaves PS3 (TS4) and Tennis Elbow PC...since TE is said to be close to SIM, it may be possible to play more than one TE match. Whether or not the 5th match is PS3 or TE should be decided by the captains of both teams. BTW, all matches played will be singles...doubles will be too hard to do without four console capabilities.

So what mean this? 2 TS4 matches using Xbox, 1 match on Tennis Elbow PC, 1 match on PS3(TS4) and are we going to play TS3?

(Example)The scheduled matches will look like this:

Men's Singles (Xbox) (TS4)
Agassi vs. Nadal

Women's Singles (Xbox) (TS4)
Hingis vs. Graf

Men's Singles (PS3) (TS4)
Blake vs. McEnroe

Men's Singles (PC) (TE)
Haas vs. Hewitt

This will be four matches...the last match will decide the winner if both teams have won two matches each...if one team has dominated, there will be no need for a fifth match. Now the final match is up to the captain whether it will be PS3 Top Spin 4 or TE. Let's say the captain is a TE player and wants to be the anchor for the team to secure the win...then he/she would step in a play the final match in Tennis Elbow. If the captain feels that his PS3 player is stronger...then he/she would set up for the final match to be a PS3 match. The final match can be WS or MS...but it's up to BOTH captains to decide this. If for some reason they do not agree...the host will decide.

I think that this is better. ;)

Men's Singles (Xbox) (TS4)
Agassi vs. Nadal

Men's Singles (PS3) (TS4)
Blake vs. McEnroe

Men's Singles (PC) (TE)
Haas vs. Hewitt

Women's Singles (Xbox) (TS4)
Hingis vs. Graf

This change is because if one team win the two matches on Xbox and win the PS3 match then there will be no need for TE match. ;) I think that this is better. ;) -- Xbox,PS3,TE and then again Xbox .. ;)

You may have a point. I like this as well...We'll allow the captains to decide whether MS or WS should be played first...but I like the idea. That way no one is left out. Nice feedback!

For instance...to eliminate problems with deadlines...the captains will correspond to see exactly who is ready to play their match. So let's say the TE players from both teams are ready to play...then they can move ahead and play their match...and so on.
