World of Tanks Classic, Season I

TurboT, on May 04 2012 - 02:02, said: Hey just looking for brief clarification of this line from the WoT website regarding the playoffs:
Playoffs will be single-elimination. The winner of each round will be determined as the first team to 3 win
Single elimination is not first to three.  It's a confusing line.  I'm assuming the first few rounds are single knockout with the last two(or one) being first to 3...but clarification is appreciated.
Thanks,
