OK, pay attention, a tie-breaker rule is to be set here in post #407, named as 407.1-tb and 407.2-tb.

407.1 (PR)
At the end, if 2 or more players will be tied, the first tie-breaker will decide the winner and this is the number of "perfect runs" (10 points).

407.2 (WW)
If 2 or more players are still tied after 407.1 & therefore they achieved the same number of wins, another tie-break rule come into account. The player with the most "weekend wins", wins. Games 11 & 12 are added together, too.

Tie-breakers.

Thank you for running this competition. I regret I was a late starter. Should you ever come up with another "prediction game" please drop me a message before it begins and there will be no need for rules on ties for I will grab the first place convincingly. LaughingLaughing

 

I have got yet another idea. It should not be a big deal to calculate how many points we got on averige if we include only games where we posted our tips.

It may be better for a larger tournament if you had a dedicated website or program with an automated scoring system. Just an idea...

You can say that. I'm a poor engineer (not yet) with no knowledge of programming. 

I may be able to knock something up by the next Candidates. We'll see...

That's great. :)

Yeah, many congratulations to JWestlake, good start, constant points. Deserved the trophy! :)

If any of you want to see the remaining part of the table, just ask me. Or maybe I will post a link to it here.

And just a reminder: A nice tournament for all who want a little bit of fun. http://www.chess.com/tournament/world-pointless-cc-cup Wink

Congrats, JWestLake!

I was 6th. Scott banged on in the end. TheMouth888 was somewhat consistent. Miha and Pulp also did well.

Great job guys! (or gals)

MSC157

Yes, very intense battle for 3rd.

It's also worth noticing that NewArdweaden jumped from 11th to 7th with the last risky prediction. He also missed the first 2.

At least I did beat the mad Spaniard.

because I lost the first position and started to make the opposite predictions that Jwestlake, other way I would have been second, but wanted to be first and has to risk
