Tournament Bracket

[edit]

I used the tennis bracket for this tournament since it does play like a tennis match. Each match has a maximum of 5 "sets" and within each set of questions there is an individual score. The individual scores will go into the brackets and the winning score should be bolded. In case of a tie break, the individual score should be bolded and in superscripts, the score of the tie break should be listed. This way, it'll reflect the performance of the teams better.

Looks great. Thanks for creating it! 204.115.253.51 19:47, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Except the long names for the teams cause an undesirable wrap that causes the boxes to collide. That makes the purpose of having a bracket pointless, because the reader has to study the illustration to interpret it. I'm also not sure how each category score and the tiebreaker results add to the reader's understanding. For the most part, the teams aren't terribly beaten, and since the category ends when the lead is insurmountable, the "true" score is never known. A case could also be made that the number of players remaining (in the "old" bracket) is irrelevant, just the fact that a team advanced. I appreciate the work, but we must look to make this clearer, not more confusing.—Twigboy 14:20, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If someone could add the scheduled air dates for each episode, as the first has. Also, maybe the contestants' names. Socby19 03:29, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
