There are some players here who won't be on tour next season. Or is that part of the challenge?

I thought about that. There are sure to be a few retirements and fellas who won't get to the start-line. But I said the top 96 in the world rankings, so I best stick with that.

Think of all the animals you've ever heard about
Like rhinoceroses and tigers, cats and mink
There are lots of funny animals in all this world
But have you ever seen a panther that is pink?

Think!

A panther that is positively pink,

Well here he is, the pink panther,
The rinky-dink panther,
Isn't he a panther ever so pink?

He really is a groovy cat,
And what a gentleman, a scholar, what an acrobat!

Good.

I don't really understand this game.

Do I just wait around, and see when I win?

Yeah, but it's not that difficult when you break it down.
You get points whenever one of your players gets to the quarter-finals or further in a ranking event. You get more points for players from lower groups. There are triple points for the World Championship.

Re: Think Pink 2019

Postby Pink Ball

For example, you get one point if your group one player makes it to a ranking event quarter-final. You get eight points if your group eight player does that same. 16 points if your group 16 player does. 25 points if your wildcard does.

Which reminds me: you didn't pick a wild card. Can you please choose one? That's any player who's not in the top 96.

Re: Think Pink 2019

Postby SnookerFan

My wildcard is James Cahill.

I was tempted to pick Bagley, buy thought he wouldn't win.
