Re: INAUGURAL HAN SOLO COMPETITION "2019"

It is great fun. Been playing there since 2016 and love it.
Atmosphere is relaxed and the format unique.

You can only choose one tournament to play each week, so thwre is some additional strategy.
It only takes one bracket to fill in every week.

Hope you guys like it!

Re: INAUGURAL HAN SOLO COMPETITION "2019"

Quick update on the inaugural Han Solo comp before RG hits us.

TennisElbow currently leads with tenedab in second and Tono third, long way to go still though.

I'm not quite sure what you mean Dtrain. Are you saying that you can't find a way to change the language from French to English? If that is the case, on the main page where you would sign in, there is a French Flag and a British one. To convert the site to English, hit the British flag and you should then be able to read what is on the site. If you mean something else, please clarify.

I guess you are looking at the race rankings. Adunar is leading in the yearly rankings.

Re: INAUGURAL HAN SOLO COMPETITION "2019"

I assume it’s only the Race rankings that we are basing this competition on, isn’t it?
That way the playing field was even at the start of the year.

Re: INAUGURAL HAN SOLO COMPETITION "2019"

Han Solo competition update after Wimbledon...

Captain Solo Race Rankings...
1) Tono 2638pts
2) TennisElbow 2540pts
3) Tenedab 2429pts
4) Dwightcharles 1803pts
5) Backhandpass 1405pts
6) Drivers 1151pts
7) Snollygoster 1078pts
8) Adunar 1005pts
9) HTS 520pts

The top three are very close in this inaugural competition, but it only takes one really good Masters or GS result and things can change pretty quickly, plenty of tennis left in this comp yet.
