To get a scoreboard relevant to the actual contest we exclude brackets were the predicted winner is already eliminated,. Because points per correct prediction doubles for each additional round you lose a lot of potential points by having the selected winner eliminated early (see the "Roof" column in the LP leaderboard). Your scoring roof is now 43 which means that from now on you literally have to nail every single prediction to even have a shot at the final top ten! | ||

Your scoring roof is now 43 which means that from now on you literally have to nail every single prediction to even have a shot at the final top ten! Interestingly last year the fifth placed predictor had Naniwa winning over Thorzain in the finals and because of Thorzains darkhorse nature many of the predictors below had incorrect finalist predictions as well. It seems like if your finalist is already out you had better hope that you nail everything else, get the other finalist correct and that a darkhorse(JonnyRecco?) takes it so as to screw up everyone elses bracket. Edit: After a little researching(Yes I'm lame) I'm nearly positive I will place top 5 if First wins no matter the outcome of the other matches! I guess I could also maybe place if JonnyRecco wins against First in the finals but I'm not going to bother looking into that... Edit2: Only 3 people chose JonnyRecco to win. Two of which look like joke brackets so it would be pretty hilarious if they won. The other two spots could likely be ridiculously close between many of the other predictors... Yeah other then this scenario you had better predict the winner to have a shot. FinalEdit:+ Show Spoiler + | ||

Yeah, last year only 4 users predicted a Thorzain win but regarding JRecco, have you actually went through 200 pages to count JRecco brackets?? Why so sad? | ||

Lol yeah I did. I was bored and curious. I don't have their names any more but the highest had 17 points and the lowest had ten. + Show Spoiler + First Lost. I'm out. | ||
