I distinguish semi-pelegianism from synergism in this way - in semi-pelegianism people are able to take the initiative towards God, before he has reached out to them. In synergism, God must take the initiative but we are then able to co-operate and finish the work, salvation is thus the work of both God and man.
Ok what about this, if a person believes they contributed in no way to God sending his Son to earth, that they contributed in no way to Jesus' life, death and resurrection. Yet they believe they can take first steps to God, or in other words if they believe that in the application or reception of salvation they can make the first move, is that still semi-Pelagianism?
