Do we really need Table Tennis team Wch ? I mean there only 2 events M teams and W Teams and I can already predict that some 90% of the participants know already the medalists

I would have it like our football and other team sports prediction contests where users had to predict the matches. It would be like last year's ATP and WTA Finals where you had to predict the correct set/game score. I think the bigger question is if China or Hong Kong will be allowed to participate because of the whole coronavirus?

I see, that would be ofc better, but still looking at the schedlue there days when 2 different rounds are played, for example let say round 4 around 01:00 AM our time and 5th round around 10:30 our time on a normal working day (tuesday), that should be a bit of problem for many of the users, which is worth of consideration (same for Monday Round 2 and Round 3)

 

But yeah, I am fine with whatever you´ll organize. You are already doing a hell of amazing work here.

Yeah, a tight schedule like this one is not the most optimal for participants or a prediction manager. But like many politicians do nowadays, you do whatever the people demands. Besides, I would like to save my "go-against-the-majority"-card for a later occasion.
