Round Robin Ranking (1st-8th) will be determined using each Player’s Record of Matches won and lost. Ties will be broken using the following Tiebreakers in this order: Head to Head Match Winning Percentage (Matches Won vs. Tied Players / Matches Played vs. Tied Players), Head to Head Games Winning Percentage (Games Won vs. Tied Players / Games Played vs. Tied Players)

ARG So obvious. I'm gonna be pissed if its not Hearth 5th, DRG 6th, Parting 7th. Written in plain english right there.

I can honestly say the 10 dollars was worth it. The casting was excellent. Nothing but high level games. No problems with the streams. Most importantly, no adds ruining the experience. I will now buy the season pass for 30 dollars.

Heart got higher map score than DRG and PartinG, he advances.

DRG/PartinG have same map score, PartinG beat DRG head-to-head.

Heart advances with PartinG, thats how it should work.

Wow, this makes sense, I think you may be correct.

except it's not overall map score, it's only mapscore in between the 3 players.

Yeah, the camera was on DRG and MC at their PC's. Someone was talking to DRG (might have been Hwanni? Only really saw his back) and suddenly DRG looked really happy and relieved.

It's always a good strategy to believe things that "make sense" rather than actually investigating the circumstances and making logical conclusions.

So, Step-by-Step:
Show nested quote +

Round Robin Ranking (1st-8th) will be determined using each Player’s Record of Matches won and lost.

Heart, DRG and Parting all have a Match Record of 3-4, therefore there is a tie.
Show nested quote +

Ties will be broken using the following Tiebreakers in this order: Head to Head Match Winning Percentage (Matches Won vs. Tied Players / Matches Played vs. Tied Players),

This is:
Heart: 1/1 (Win vs. Parting / Loss vs. DRG)
Parting: 1/1 (Win vs. DRG / Loss vs. Heart)
DRG: 1/1 (Win vs. Heart / Loss vs. Parting)
therefore we have a tie in this category as well
Show nested quote +

Head to Head Games Winning Percentage (Games Won vs. Tied Players / Games Played vs. Tied Players),

This is:
Heart: 4/6 (3-0 vs. Parting + 1-2 vs. DRG, makes for 4 wins with 6 games played)
Parting: 2/6 (2-1 vs. DRG + 0-3 vs. Heart)
DRG: 3/6 (2-1 vs. Heart + 1-2 vs. Parting)
At this stage the tie is broken with Heart > DRG > Parting and the other factors don't matter anymore


This is the same thing I thought. Pretty sure this is right.

Indeed, round robin overall games are the last criterion to separate a 3 (or more)-way tie. According to the rules of this tournament seen on http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/competitions/33#event_100_competition-format

Does anyone else feel like this weekend was pretty lackluster? The broadcast and production are top-notch, of course, but the list of players, the whole format, was just not that exciting? I'm probably not going to pay for another Arenas...

There is only one way to make everyone happy, make all but the 7th advance, and make the fisrt go to the final instead of the semifinal. Yeah, it changes the rules but doesn't make mlg look that bad.
