World of Tanks Classic, Season I

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.
