Many thanks to all who voted. We had 40 players nominated in total - of which 38 were eligible.
In the event of a tie, placings were decided on World Championship record - number of titles, Finals and so on. In the event players couldn't be separated, then the player with the higher percentage of match wins at the Crucible is placed higher.
In the end, three of the five World Champions made the cut; Ray Reardon, Terry Griffiths and John Spencer. - Whilst four others are former World Championship Finalists.

I'll put a template up, similar to a Prediction Contest one in the next day or two. Just put down what you think the score would be in a hypothetical match-up between the two players. These will be combined with the Head to Head Crucible record to give a match score.
First Round matches will have a voting window of two days
Three session matches 3 days and Four Session matches 4 days.
Good Luck all! Who are people's tips to win?

Come on Hendry and Judd. I'm a huge fan of Ding after these 2 but he's playing Hendry. Come on Jack now is your time to shine lad and defeat Ronnie.
I'm taking it a bit too seriously lol.

Thats an interesting draw. Quite a few matches there I would love to have seen, if both players were at their peak :
Dott against Spencer
Thorburn v Hunter
A. Higgins v McManus
Doherty v Reardon
all stand out, for me. A peak Stevens v Trump would be a toe-to-toe shootout too; Stevens gets a lot of stick on this forum, (bottler, choker etc) but some people forget just how good he was at his best, before his personal problems.

I'm making my predictions as if everyone was playing at peak form, but with modern tables and cloths. This slightly edges out some of the older guys. Hardest one to guess at was the Ding v Hendry one, what a match that would be! I said Ding would edge it as I suspect he would have the slightly better tactical game.
