A bit of a safe take.

Too long to do for me, but no one predicted Reynor trigger correctly since you've got to change Reynor race to Protoss for this match

We had yet another Zerg win another Premier Tournament, time for a change up.
I went with the rematch of the GSL final for TSL final as well

I am a tank. I am covered head to toe in solid plate mail. I carry a block of metal the size of a 4 door sedan to hide behind. If you see me running - you should too.

Question - are points awarded for having the correct winner and score, or do you need to have the opponent correct as well? For example - if you predicted TIME to beat Ryung in the quarterfinals with 2-0 but he beats Heromarine instead with that score, do you still get points?

Well, now the rankings have been updated (although the scores seem wrong): (Wiki)Special:BracketContestRanking/46

I started a Google spreadsheet for an unofficial ranking.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DT7s-zW9CV6EDvffAE4FwT-ETg-4CY9EDRGYIAx6kqk/edit?usp=sharing

I considered that extra points for correct score were given if the correct winner, winner score and loser score are guessed correctly (even if the loser is not correct).

Feel free to edit the Results sheet with the tournament results to update the ranking.

Thanks for that! It indicates that I don't have a result for the last match though, which I predicted Maru 4-2. Could you adjust it?

Also, that's a hell of a lot of work you must've put into that. Impressively done.

I added to the spreadsheet, for all participants:
  • the rank,
  • the number of correct winner predictions
  • the number of correct score predictions


Here is a link to the web version: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTVYfP3oLbyQhqrVlTOUT30qtmQzycVGUwV4IbV3AlRwoyOgYihPBKIgGTkjiYfi6FrfRIskumFvIG-/pubhtml

Here is the code you entered for last match:
|R9M1={{Match|bestof=7
|opponent1={{1v1Opponent|1=Maru|score=|advantage=4}} <!-- winner from R8M1 -->
|opponent2={{1v1Opponent|1=herO|score=2}} <!-- winner from R8M2 -->

Source: (Wiki)User:Artanis(Xp)/BracketContest/46?action=raw

You have "|advantage=4" instead of "|score=4" for Maru.

I cannot say what will the official ranking do. You can ask the contest admins to fix the bracket for you maybe, since the intent is clear.
For now, I decided to add to the spreadsheet a copy of your bracket with the username "Artanis(Xp) fixed".

any info on how scoring is done?

lets say you predict reynor to 2-0 solar in the ro8 but solar didnt make it that far in the bracket so instead reynor 2-0d maru in the ro8, do u still get points for correctly predicting reynor to reach the next round?

Also in the announcement it says who predicts the "fastest"

Can anyone elaborate what that means? Do people who submitted their bracket first get more points?

you might have, but im pretty sure the results page on the current rankings linked in this thread are not accurate. The scores (i think) got auto updated from the old brackets so olimoley screenshotted them before the live offline finals, which they then need to combine with the part 2 bracket scores. I dont believe an official combined ranking is out yet. but you did very well in both so you just might have!

Huzzah! Also partially related (another contest from the same tournament), am I missing the results thread from TLO's true or false?
