I'm taking a shot at interpreting the rules. Looking at just the first stage (step 1) from the first post in this thread....

Step 1: Predict each groups exact order of finish prior to November 20th 12PM Eastern

Scoring:
Step 1 scoring:
-1 point for each correct result(16 possible pts)



Enikk indicated you had to get the "exact order of finish" so I assume that means, you must pick who advanced and the exact seed (1st or 2nd) that they advanced with. Since there are only 16 possible points in step 1 (1 pt for each correct answer), I assume he was looking at only the first two finishers in each group.

If these assumptions are correct (a big if), here are the current standings (in order of being entered in the thread).

If someone interprets this differently, let me know. I'm kind of guessing.
Also, if there are any errors, let me know.
