When creating the bracket, nothing even shows up for tiebreakers and even when trying to create a new bracket i don't see an option for tiebreakers and it doesn't say anything about that message. You can try to create a fake one yourself. I didn't see anything though
Instructions:
Select the teams/players you predict to win each game. You can also optionally predict scores (in the text fields), though they will not be counted in the formula which determines who has the most accurate prediction. When done, click the Enter button. Repeat this process until you have predicted a final winner for the bracket.
Yea, i think it's easy to see. The bracketmaker formula only counts wins in an increasing with each round style. It doesn't have the technology to take the person's final score in the text field (which you can type anything or have a bracket for something weird non-sports related) so the leaderboard only adjusts with the actual results of who moves on in the bracket. Technically i could create bracket of music artists and we pick them and have other weird tiebreakers in there that aren't numbers. Or i could've said the tiebreaker to pick was the name of the player with the most tackles so it wouldn't even have been an updateable number
Also, GLB has been using the same bracketmaker brackets and pick em' challenges since like season 9 and it has always been the same and it was posted in the OP.
New decision is no do-overs. It was very obvious what to do by reading the original post and if you think about it some, that bracketmaker instructions makes sense in the context i explained it. People should use more common sense.
Sorry guys. If there are multiple people with same points at the end, the tiebreakers in the bracket are the ones that i will use. I will try to PM Catch22/Hazy to discuss 1st 2nd 3rd since i initially had no flex on the line, then cav donated 2000 which is enough for 1 person. With 8000 more involved having 1st/2nd/3rd or at least 1st/2nd makes more sense as that is what happened for the hazy/addicts/pwt pick em' challenges
