  WannaBe: This befuddles me... For the Women World Cup, round of 16 play:

China v Cameroom 6/22 - US v Colombia 6/22 the two winners then play 6/26

Really short break for US, (Group winner).

If US had finished second in group play, they would face Brazil on 6/21 then play 6/27 (if US wins). Lots of rest...

Ugh.

  OhioChessFan: I just noticed your picks with <lostemperor> You don't have a 3rd, 8th, or 9th place!
Jun-22-15
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <OhioChessFan> Multiple people in the same place, hence, no picks for 3, 8, and 9.

  WannaBe: <OhioChessFan> I went back and copies this portion from the profile of <lostemperor>:

Here a format how to post your predictions

1. Nakamura
2. Carlsen
3. Topalov
3. Caruana
5. Grischuk
5. Anand
5. Giri
8. Aronian
9. Vachier-Lagrave
10. Hammer

Unless I really, really made/posted my predictions wrong...

  OhioChessFan: Okay, I went and checked and it appears <lostemperor> is dealing with it. What you posted was:

4. Caruana
4. Nakamura
4. Topalov
6. Aronian
6. Giri
7. Grischuk
10. Hammer

But it should have been:
1. Carlsen
2. Anand
3. Caruana
3. Nakamura
3. Topalov
6. Aronian
6. Giri
8. Grischuk
9. Hammer

  OhioChessFan: The timing was funny. I was bringing it up this morning because I thought it would help you to have the 9ths for Hammer and VL. Then as I was posting, <le> posted and you were in first. I didn't want to mess that up so I deleted. Tonight I wanted to know so I did my best to figure it out for the first round, and I am pretty sure he's getting it right for you.

  WannaBe: <OhioChessFan> Yes, you are correct, I did miscount that 7th/8th...

Shoulda paid more attention to my prediction list before posting.
