My Sf predictions are 8 right out of 10. Quite good. Final prediction: WS: WSX VS Sung JY. WSX will win her second SS titles after China Open last year . MD : Why they put MD in second event and not the last really confused me. CY/FHF VS JJS/LYD No question about it. Match of the Day. They had met few times last year and they win some and lost some. CY/FHF had slight edges though JJS/LYD will have all the supports from the audiences. 50:50 WD SC/ZYL will win in 2 sets against Mizuki/Reika XD Another title for ZYW (her first XD title for quite a long time). TJM/ZYW, another new but deadly pair from China. MS It will take a miracle for PG to win against LCW in the final considering he had play two very long matches in QF and SF. LCW will win in 2 sets.
much too early to watch MD - I've got no idea why they have put the thrill of the day that early - crazy! Anyway, I hope Koreans can bring it home. I just gonna watch the match as replay, what a pite Anyway, seeing LYD and partner on top would be great for the hosts and the world of badminton as well The other interesting match is the MS - lets cheer the veteran! Peter go! I hope he has enough power to win in 2 games, another 3 game match wouldn't give him advantage Lets cheer him together - when I get my breakfast coffee later on
MS: DLCW to bungkus the trophy home (as a replacement for the upcoming MO)...if he loses, then we'll hear the same noise from master P.. WS: She's no madbad's fave, but i'm picking the new WS sensation from KOR. WD: CHN pair to take it home; although the JPN pair could give them a tough battle, knowing their tendency to play a defensive/counter-attack style. XD: Probably will look like a practice session out there, but He Hanbin & Yu Yang to win. MD: A rematch from last yr's World Championships MD Final. Home and BC favorite doubles player, Sundae Lee and JJS to smile and most importantly make the BC fans smile, once again. Should be a good one.
MS :Why replacement for the upcoming MO. Is he not taking part? XD : Would be the most boring match of the final day. MD : BC fan smile? You mean most Bcers are not CHN fans?
The schedule is funny. Should be : 4,3,5,1,2. based on : http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=9C15FDD9-4FB5-4531-8743-7BB2606F66DD Games involving Korean players are scheduled in the first 2 matches. Will the crowd leaves after these matches?

- He is playing but i highly doubt he'll win it. Remember, SuperDan will be there. So, unless SuperDan does another East Asian Games MS Final, i think he'll be in the MS Final, if not win it all. - It won't be boring, just not as interesting to some. - I'd say the majority of BCers, esp. the ones following the Tournament section and Professional Players section are non-CHN fans. Esp. for MD and LYD, just check out how many replies do the "LYD" related threads have in comparison to the other pairs (other than Ah Koo and Ah Tan). ..since they haven't announced the starting time, i can't give you the approx. time. Sorry, but please see this link to check the starting time: http://tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=9C15FDD9-4FB5-4531-8743-7BB2606F66DD&d=20100117
^^Off topic-My hunch says..^^ ..there are BCers from CHN, but mostly are just reading/surfing, not really posting (probably has to do more w/language barrier; BC being an English based site). But overall, my hunch says, there are more BCers from outside of CHN (yes, probably even from the U.S., Canada). As for the percentage of non-CHN fans, it's hard to say unless BC conducted a poll to find out the percentage; yes, there are many CHN fans from outside of mainland CHN. But since we don't have one, then the next item to consider as a barometer is the Professional Players section (see how many posts & views are related to CHN/non-CHN players).
Yeah, perhaps the Bcers CHN fans are like what you said due to language barrier but those who post are very protective and vocal and sometimes "hostile" (from my own experience). As for others, I see many are from Malaysia and chris-ccc and cooler and you. Probably I don't venture out to other threads. Anyway, lets leave this topic, otherwise others will complain.
^^Off topic-Hmm..^^ - There are BCers from other countries who are "very protective" and "vocal" as well, not just from CHN. As for "hostile", it's hard to say (goes all around) but the majority of BCers are not. - You're correct on "many are from M'sia" incl. chris-ccc. Basically a lot from the SE Asia region (M'sia, S'pore, INA, Philippines>badminton haven). As for cooler and myself, not really in the same camp as chris-ccc. You'll find out should we cross path, one of these days.
MS - LCW has 65:35 chance. But PG can be the spoiler of the tournament for Lee Chong Wei. I hope not. If this reaches the 3rd set, I think PG will run out of gas. However, I said that about Chen Long vs Peter yesterday too, but PG still won. WS - WSX will, or should win. MD - A tight match. I think JJS/LYD will win on home ground. 51-49 chance? WD - I'm supporting Japan WD but I don't think they stand a solid chance. XD - I'm hoping they let Tao Jiaming/Zhang Yawen win if it is set up. If it's not, He Hanbin/Yu Yang will take it.
How can he retired like that, he beat lin dan in that famous coach , li mao in korea open 2008, nobody can forget that fateful night!
