[And those tournaments will have to upgrade their licence which is super expensive so we may lost them.]

Just saw this, doesn't seem like anybody thinks it is a good idea.

Wonder what will happen to Birmingham and Nottingham next year?  They could lose both and the grass court season is proper screwed?  Don't think this is good for UK tennis.

They just want money. And they probably have the right to demand it. Figuratively speaking, they have two aces in this situation - . But let's see what happens.    

Tomáš Petera head organizator of WTA 500 in Ostrava just said that in 2024 there will be major change in tournaments. He said that top 30 will not be able to play WTA 250! And those tournaments will have to upgrade their licence which is super expensive so we may lost them.

There must have been a lot of money "made" here. It looks very nice, the pictures were nice to look at.

14,500+ hours of CIV VI game play and i still hate religion. Though i do get one sometimes to help with a science win

Deity is the only way to play

So much time? I didn't count my time as I reinstalled the operating systems and the game too. But I think I have less time

Matey-boy?

Has he given up poker? Not seen him mentioned on any updates for ages.

He's not missing, he's playing his game away from the public. As soon as he has a big success, the public is bound to find him - it always does. Well, it's been like that with others

I started playing this mate during lockdown, used to love Civ2.

Can't say my hours match yours but its such a great game and levels are so deep.

I just do random leader etc so i'm not always doing the same thing. Religious route seems so fucking tedious though, culture/science/domination way more fun.

yeah religion is a ballsache the micro management is a bore i did it once just to get the achievement i am now close to 7000 hours according to steam

Nice to see Civilization 6 fans here I also play.
I can tell you that the religious path is the fastest way to win the game. On the God difficulty I won on religion. All the other ways to win are not so easy to get on high difficulty.

I'm still kinda resistant to written instructions, they're usually so confusing, I often try to find a YouTube video instead. Things are so much clearer if you can see what to do rather than read about it. The difficult bit is getting past the part where a 50yo white bloke in a beige cardigan and carpet slippers greets you with, "Yo dude, sapnin?"

Perhaps finding a good review is really the best option. A written manual is not always clear. And it can even be boring. And a video review is great. I watch them too.

Was thinking about the old days, and remembered my old pal Davy the Truth. Wondered what happened to him....

Did a twitter search for him, and in his bio t says he's a director of England boxing.

Wonder if he still charges a tenner for a sausage roll at the functions

Not many followers for the director. Is he really the director?

OK doubles match to decide on the semi final place do you play Dart/Watson or Barnett/Nichols ?

Barnett Nichols every time . Would have said that before.

Watson immense today. 

Brilliant stuff to do this without Radacanu and from 0-2 in march one.

Amazing, i think Anne K was on a hiding to nothing i picking the doubles match if they had lost people would of been saying why not use Dart/Watson and if she picked Dart/Watson it was why not pick Barnett/Nichols
i have been fans of Barnett/Nichols seen i first seen them playing as a pair hope they can push on top 50 and beyond next season

Mr Draper put on a good display today too not before 8:30pm (gmt) tomorrow evening tomorrow for his semi.

I've watched a few of their games. Yeah, I think they have the potential to be in the top 50. But time will tell.
