    Welcome to my world! Same thing happened to me! Darn Byes took forever and knocked me down in Rank well over 2000.. and I did not get any points.... Only points I got were the ones I fought for. My frigging little alt came out over 1000 in rank higher than me and she lost most of her battles.! WTF!

    Why so many byes? I drew two byes on one server. Traditionally, a bye is a win - not a loss. Especially when handed out like candy.

    I'll post here even though I hate the title... Hopefully Morgan fixes it, or merges it.

    A bye should not affect the score, that is how it works... Also, there were 8 rounds not 9... Unless all but three players missed a whole round. mmm?

    Explain how I'm 12th, honestly.

    Same thing here. I had 4 of 9 rounds as a bye, so I'm ranked 3200 spots lower than my other server where I have 14mil less power. Also check the scoreboard. It is wrong. The emails for wins/losses is doubled for some rounds. So on 1 server I have more points than wins, on 2 others I have less points than wins. I guess the only way to look at this is it isn't going to be fair or accurate, but should result in a butt load of tickets! It would be nice to have some actual rules, instead of the vague description provided so far. Rules they should have thought of, if Tynon developers have actually every played in a gaming tourney.
    What determines byes?
    Will everyone have the same amount of byes at the end of prelims?
    Why are byes not scored as a point?
    Why do the points shown, not equal the number of victories?
    ....and most importantly...How long is this prelim stuff going to take???? Based on the number of rounds tonight and the number of byes given out, it would appear the winner will be crowned the middle of 2014????

    some people were awarded 9 points though. The scoreboard is not correct and not sure that Tynon even knows, or can fix it at this point.

    from what i am gathering

    There were 2 round 3s

    SO people who had a fight in round 3 either got an extra win or extra loss.

    Possibly the round just counted twice for some reason

    I had a bye so i only had 8 rounds

    And lets not argue over wheather a bye should be a win or nothing or whatever.

    We all agree the way it is now is wrong and has potential to really screw over players of any size. and until there is proof that EVERYONE got the same number of them, we should keep complaining about the byes. Because after 1 day, some people got 0 and some got as many as 4

    Also by seeing LB scores, people with the same number of points are ranked differently. What was the tie breaker to decide who out ranks who? I mean think about it what happens when rank 513-534 have the same points as 512. Why are they going to get eliminated?

    There are actually 6 players with 9 points. I am currently ranked 8th.
