Week 1 of the Twitch Bracket Challenge for TSL6 was already a lot of fun, especially as so many of you participated! We offer our congratulations to ZigguratOfUr, who proved himself the wisest of all who submitted their predictions and won the first challenge with 34 points—he walks away with 150$ of TL store credit! Participant Dufo was able to score one more point, but didn't follow the rules by not announcing his submission in the contest thread as required. We still tried to find and reach out to them, but weren't able to establish contact.
It only gets better from here, though, as we go into the double elimination phase of TSL6. Here, it will be decided if you're truly the greatest StarCraft II expert, as you'll have to predict the entire remaining bracket. Once again, the winner can look forward to 150$ of TL store credit as an early Christmas offering, but even just participating will give you a shot at securing a prize, as we’ll randomly give out another 150$ of TL store credit to someone for simply submitting their bracket.
How to enter All you have to do is learn some basic Liquipedia editing techniques and you can participate in this contest. Follow the instructions on this page. Once you're done, maybe you could use some of your newfound skills to contribute to Liquipedia, the world's greatest StarCraft II resource.
As the competition goes on, you can check the leaderboard to see how accurate your predictions are compared to everyone else's. During the last TSL, chaos reigned supreme and shattered many brackets early on, but in the end SharpFlex still managed to secure the win with a tally of 151 points.

TL.net crowd-sourced proofreading (TM) in action once again. Thanks guys!
Bracket entrants - Note that in winners round 2, the order in which players move to the losers bracket is reversed! The loser of the top match in WR2 moves to the bottom match in LR2.
Mine has been submitted. I'm going to assume that I got the whole thing ass backwards in regards to where in the loser's bracket each player falls after losing their winner's match. It'll be the greatest miracle of all if mine is half right.
What if in the Winners Round 2 Stats loses to Reynor (so my prediction is wrong and no points for me, that is clear). But they still end up meeting later on in the same Losers Semifinal position as i think they will. And at that point my prediction will be correct. Meaning Reynor will win 3-1 against Stats. Will that result in Losers Semifinals count considering they end up meeting there with a different route? Reynor grinding up from the bottom of the bracket and Stats from the top (vice versa than i have in my bracket)?
