I figured at the start of the round a target of 380 would be definite...
based on an equal share of the points, (8x10 pts, 8x7pts ,..., 8x1 pt)
But if you talking absolute minimum you'd need to skew that for the players that do really badly.
Its tough to compare to previous MBs because the scoring has changed somewhat, and it'll vary from group to group, but I got it projected at about 342 to scrape through at the moment
Wow...well 367 was the lowest score to scrape through, nicely done Vikermac in Charlie Group.... looks like 390 did it in most groups.

Scores updated as of May 11th @ 2030hrs.
All groups decided... Sun Tzup has dropped out so we are waiting on a judgement from Brandoncfi on the replacement.

Well, it was odd. I had 11 wins but a lot of 1st outs to balance it out. I got kinda lucky in the last few games and held for a few 2nd and 3rd places. Still, great set of matches from Charlie group.

By my reckoning, I can still beat Grape Ape in Bravo group.......yet it appears he is through to the next round. Any reason for this that I have missed?

The highest scores who didn't move on:
Angola: guaranteed at least 383 points, with one game still going
Nashlloyd: 385 points
Gypsykiss: guaranteed at least 392 points (though he could definitely still catch Grape Ape if he finishes higher than 5th in Game 23.
Edit: To add, Nashlloyd apparently got Sun's spot.

Yep. Gypsys Kiss was right! He can't finish lower than 3rd in any of the remaining games...and since Grape Ape is out of all of them...Gypsys Kiss is guaranteed at least a score of 394, 1 better than Grape Ape's 393...well done.

You are absolutely right you will be the one moving on. My mistake I missed seeing a game and thought there was one left only sorry I am attempting to rectify the mistake.

The score sheet has been fixed and the games sent out to Gypys Kiss and an apologie sent to Grape Ape for my horrendous mistake.

At what point do I get a chance to rejoin the tournament, I'm in the same bracket as Jug68, but different starting group. However, I did get more points than he did, and it hardly seems fair to take the 8th place person in one group over the 5th place player in another assuming it gets that far.

I know it's a disappointment but if some of your group members would have dropped out the situation may have worked in your favor...kind of the way the dice rolls. Sorry

Since this is a bracket style elimination scheme we will use people from the same group. Just like in any sport if your opponent is disqualified or stops then you move on, deserved or not
