1 bet for entire series seems the most intuitive and simple way to do it.

I like entire series too. If you split it up, it's like betting on each game and not betting on the bo3. Plus this way it saves me some headache =p

One bet for the entire series. I love liquibet endlessly but constantly voting for the same people for the same bloody game is getting tiresome

Entire series yo... way too much thought to put in who you think will win which game.

Yea one bet for entire series. I lost 2 liquibets For MSL 2-1, even though I picked the winner of the series but he didn't win teh second game...really frustrating (bets were for (T)fOrGG and (Z)sAviOr)
This statement is a lie.

I lost all four, 0/4 in Liquibet last night. =) I'm glad people seem to be in favor of changing this...

1 bet, 1 series. I hate having to try to guess who's going advance based on a game-by-game basis it's like trying to bet MSL groups (thank goodness we only have to bet the first two games).

Makes sense to have just one bet, the same as with Bo5 series, regardless of if all the games are on the same day or not.

i like whole series too, maybe both? Like 5 points for the bo3 and 1 point for each game guessed right. That would be cool IMO.

That's too much. =( People who predict correctly will get a huge advantage over people who predict incorrectly. Plus, 8 possible points for a Bo3 is really high, and would have to be compensated somehow, e.g. with point increases everywhere else...

The entire series imo, just like with any other best of x match.

Sucks that I lost out on three points just because I don't know it didn't work that way.

1 point for the entire series. Just intuitive that way. Also, spreading might (intentionally or unintentionally) give more weight to those series that are over multiple days (specifically, MSL games). That, and I haven't heard a very good reason to do it another way.

a combination would be nice... if you could vote all three (two) games seperated but you could score points for the correct games and the correct tendency.

maybe one point for a correct game and a bonus if you voted all games correctly.

it used to be that you just voted for the whole series, but i guess after some complaints they changed it. but it seems like the complainers were in the definite minority. squeeky wheel gest the grease but at least we're getting it changed

Too hard to predict psychological ploys days in advance. Especially if only 1 game is played a day. Also thats quite tedious for people not going to their comp every morning/afternoon. Late work > early school could mean missed vote!~
