Anways, where's WM. eviL, iQ, RenO? Seems kind of odd without any of those guys in the tournament.
IQ was the big favorite to go against QQ, but IQ dropped out because they couldn't getting a good team together at the designated times. Apparently the real world trashed their party plans.

Yeah. I might publish the 4 different lists I'll be using, if I'll remember to make and place them in time

I can just say that the error in using e^-1, (which is the limit for the so-called "infinite set"), instead of the right formula for 32, is smaller then 1/32!, which is something of the sort of:

0.00000000000000000000000000000000001.

and that's why I said that the probability of getting 0 points is actualy e^-1.

Does anyone have a definitive answer on this? Gaile? ... When I was registering, I looked at that field and seeing the question mark next to it I figured "that'll tell me whether it wants my login email or a character name." But instead it vaguely says "mispelled account names will lead to undeliverable prizes." Talk about pouring salt on the wound lol.. I gave it a character name. Can someone clarify?

Andrew Patrik already confirmed that when it says "account name" you enter the account anme that you log into GW with. For most people it will be an email address, for some it may be a PLayNC account.

I'm also having the problem with making my selections. This is what I get:



By the way, for anyone who enetered a wrong account name, there is the option to change it, you don't have to re-register. (I made that mistake)

For the account name, please type the same account name you use to log into Guild Wars. This can be your email, a PlayNC account...whatever it is you use to log in every time you get in the game.

For email, please use whatever email address you choose, or, whichever email address you would like the confirmation sent to.

For a lot of you, it will be the same email address, but not for everyone which is why we ask for both. I hope that clears up any confusion.

Too bad, I'm too late

I'm pretty sure these things won't be max damage or inscibable though, and if I'm right, I don't even want these things, so I don't really mind I could always buy them if I'm wrong.

It's funny that all 3 predictions put the LIZZARDS at the bottom. Yet in my Top Guild Battles I see the reptilian guild there

LIZZARDS for shock upset number at 1!

Stupid bugs. I can change my selections now, but obviously it's too late. The order I see is 1-32 as it was from the beginning without my changes. Even if it sent the default list in, I would have at least gotten Ward Against Noobzz and Rise In Superior Competition correct. However, I most likely suspect that no entry was submitted.

I think we have to wait until they compiled an official list of the results - which should be sometime today. The Xunlai NPC still burps out the same jibberish as before - and the Tournament House doesn't show any new stuff either.

Patience.

I'm assuming the published Results after 5 rounds of Swiss can be considered final standings for spots #9 - #32.

Yeah it does

Note: This year the candy cane items are inscribable!

Since they arent max dmg, +5 energy would be the preferable inscription!

Has anyone actually CLAIMED their items yet? I've been hearing a bunch of people at Kamadan complaining on how they can't get their item yet.

By a random guess i got one right.

I checked the NPC walking around the towns and he just had the same dialogue has before

I guess Anet have not activated it yet.

It says plainly on predictions page that the NPC will be added "within 30 days of the completion of the tournament" - It'll probably be rolled in with the WIntersday stuff is my guess.
