lord_farquad: Thank you to those who again who informed me of the issue. It seems
that another issue has arisen with the battle settings, causing
similar issues. Again we apologize for the inconvenience. I will be
rescheduling the battles again, and running some tests prior to
tomorrows battles.
The best match time for the final would likely be 8:30 (Monday, July 2), to avoid issues with the Skirmish that will be going on at that time. Please feel free to leave some feedback on the time for the last match, as we'd like to ensure everyone is still able to participate.
Please note that the next rounds will occur under "Playoff 2"

the tournaments with halfassed attitudes. In a prolonged season
such as this information is key. I don't know if you use the app.
but it reads the news not the forums. If WOT can't keep things up
to date enough to allow ALL teams to have EASY access to
information then that is fail on them. This should have been posted
in the news
to give people a few days not ONE day. I like the assistant app. It's handy but the news portion is useless if they don't use it.

Khagan, on Jun 27 2012 - 12:06, said: So I did some quick calculations using Flakker's table. I divided
the top and bottom half of the bracket into four min-brackets, thus
making 8 mini-brackets total. I then proceeded to count the total
number of points in each bracket and found what I believed to be
patterns and anomalies.
Top Half
Mini-bracket 1: W-A-R to 37th Elite = 194 points
Mini-bracket 2: Shock and Awe to Gvn-mini = 194 points
Mini-bracket 3: WFPK to A TEAM = 191 points
Mini-bracekt 4: SSGS1 to Kare Bears = 195 points
Bottom Half
Mini-bracket 5: A-A Bravo to [DaDs]Army = 193 points
Mini-bracket 6: S.I.M.P to BD = 192 points
Mini-bracket 7: No Dumb Pubs to RS = 197 points
Mini-bracket 8: Reddit to IL Bravo = 193 points
So it seems that the total point sweet spot is 194 + 1 point, therefore, mini-brackets 3,6 and 7 do not follow. It think it is definitely possible to arrange the mini-brackets to equal 194 points total.
Next I checked the first round matches. Total points for teams playing each other in the first round equaled 48 or 49 points, however, this was not the case with the following matches:
Mini-bracket 3 - CB4 vs ACA "Granados a Caballo" = 46 points
Mini-bracket 4 - SSGS1 vs NDP2oo = 50 points
Mini-bracket 6 - RELIC Loz vs VETS = 51 points
Mini-bracket 6 - ACA los viejos vs P-I-G = 46 points
Mini-bracket 6 - RELIC Corky vs BD = 46 points
Mini-bracekt 7 - [Forge] SSST vs AAD = 51 points
Then there are the brackets with teams from the same clan which have been noted by BigCheese, although he left out Relic.
BigCheese256, on Jun 27 2012 - 01:27, said: All this happens before anyone is guaranteed gold. If winning this
thing means beating one my clan's teams early on then I'd rather
not win at all. You need to arrange the teams so a clan isn't
fighting itself early on.

GeneralDirection: The mini brackets don't add up for you because some division
winners won their division with fewer points than other division
winners.

fighting itself early on.GeneralDirection: That would be giving preferential treatment. The bracket was set up
based on placement in the regular season, and that's the way it's
going to stay for this one.

an error of some kind in the calculations. Note that teams were
paired as was explained in the playoff article. Division winners
were paired with the lowest point wild cards, again based on
points. The wild cards were also paired based on points (highest
point value against lowest remaining point values).

24 hours is plenty of time. With others you will want to apply
