AutoTournament Question

In the Wheelchair Slalom tournament here there are four players left. One match of five has already finished, whereas Ukey and I haven't completed one of our five games yet.

The current scoring is as follows:
  • iAmCaffeine 10/10, 5 active
  • bfunny27 10/15, 0 active
  • nolefan3511, 8/15, 0 active
  • Ukey, 7/10, 5 active

If I'm correct, if I win 1 and lose 4 against Ukey, him and I will face again in the finals. Is that right?

Don't worry, it's not something I want to achieve, obviously I'd rather maintain my perfect record so far.

I'd love an answer on this. Ukey and I have both won two games and there is one left so the scores now stand at:

iAmCaffeine, 12/14
bfunny27, 10/15
Ukey, 9/14
nolefan3511, 8/15

Even if I lose the last game I should still be in the final right? I want to double check this since autotournaments have a wonderful habit of making no sense at all.

Round 4: 2 Start, Random Draw, 5 Games, Games: 2 Players, Poly (3), Escalating, 2 Maps More

top 2 players with the greatest score will move on.

If Ukey wins his last game then it'll be a tie between he and bfunny

Thanks. I won so now it's me on 13/15 against bfunny27 on 10/15. This scoring system is incredibly weird.

Do you know how tie-breakers are determined?

The default for all autotournaments is this:
http://www.conquerclub.com/public.php?mode=tournaments5
Ties in Score shall be broken by the following rules, applied in order:

Percentage of wins in the tournament as a whole
The cumulative number of Game rounds required to win the games they have won in the tournament (winning in less rounds is better)
The order in which the player joined the tournament (first player to join wins)


However, some autotournaments have custom modifications. I don't know anything about the specific one that you are in. If there's no indication that it's specifically modified, then the default probably applies.

Thanks. I'm sure this has been asked before but why on earth doesn't it just go head to head instead of rounds, or at least join order?

To that, the elves know not the answer.
