How scoring works
This contest uses the original table: each correct pick earns points by how confidently the algorithm favored the winner, and wrong picks are free. A Lock-stamped pick scores as High.
A wrong pick — or any game the algorithm predicts as a tie — scores 0, and games that end tied are excluded. Entries rank by total points; a tie in points shares the rank.
