Toony Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 I'm going to end Matchday Two at 5.30pm or so because I'm out again tonight and want to get the threads up before I go, so if you haven't voted in all the groups yet please do so ASAP. We are getting a good number of voters too which is pleasing.

How are the knockout rounds determined? Names out the hat or have groups winners and runners up been aligned with other groups already?

Then after that it's a random draw for the next knockout round.

Honey Honey Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Shouldn't only group winners go through as it doesnt make sense if someone finished 2nd and went on to win it since they'll have already lost to someone.

That can happen in the real World Cup
Administrator Stan Posted June 1, 2017 Administrator Posted June 1, 2017 Looks like Nudge is going to beat me (currently 1 vote ahead). In which case it'll be me vs Tsubasa to fight it out for 2nd place in the next matchday.

If Bob beats Bill by 10 votes and Dave then beats Bob in the knockouts, Bill should not be able to beat Dave if people are being consistent As long as people are consistent it won't matter and runners up get to have a few more matches so that's a positive.
Toony Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Can the next admin to see this please lock the Matchday Two threads.
Administrator Stan Posted June 1, 2017 Administrator Posted June 1, 2017 Sorted. Should be some intriguing ties in the 3rd matchday! Wonder if there'll be some tactical voting...
Storts Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 This should be public imo - especially as admin (maybe mods) can see who's voted

Toony Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Matchday Three is up. Through to the last 32: @SirBalon, @nudge, @Dr. Gonzo, @HoneyNUFC, @DeadLinesman, @Spike, @Cicero, @Storts, @True Blue, @Batard, @ScoRoss, @Cannabis, @Bluebird Hewitt, @Berserker, @carefreeluke, @Eco Eliminated: @JOSHBRFC, @Panflute, @trago, @IgnisExcubitor, @Large, @Gunnersauraus, @Harry The rest of the last 32 line-up is to be decided in the final Matchday, EVERY vote is important so make sure to vote on every thread.
Eco Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Wow - I assumed everyone could see who is voting for whom. Whoops.
Toony Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Early votes suggest @RandoEFC, @Dan, @FOYM, @Anton, @...Dan and @Rab are heading through. Lot of deciding games going on so again it is important everyone votes.
Guest Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 As a suggestion, if there's a tie the winner of the tiebreaker should be whoever had more votes overall.

I think these things are better when they are more open - Particularly when a lot of the entrants can see who has voted, but not others. And that can make a difference tactically if people are that way inclined. Not so much an issue in the Groups, but perhaps in the knock outs it could be an open vote for transparency
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 1, 2017 Subscriber Posted June 1, 2017 Why do you need to know who voted for who? It's enough to get a general feeling of forum popularity, no need to make it even more personal by showing everyone who does and doesn't prefer them over other people.
