Zero Rule #1: If the winner of a pageant is not included in the participant's entry, participant will automatically get zero score.
Zero Rule #2: If the participant's winner in the entry sheet is not included in the actual Top 15/16/25, participant will automatically get zero score.
SCORE SPECIFICS:
1. If the actual pageant chooses FEWER runners up than the PG asks for, the additional runners up from the PG entries will be disregarded.
Example: If the PG has 4 RUs but the actual pageant has only 3 RUs, then the 4th RU in your PG list is omitted.
2. If the actual pageant chooses MORE runners up than the PG asks for, the additional runners up from the pageant will be disregarded.
Example: If the PG has 4 RUs but the actual pageant has 5 RUs, then the 5th RU from the pageant will not count.
3. If the PG asks for 4 RUs but the pageant chooses only 2 RUs and Rest of Top 5, then the points for to the Rest of Top 5 will apply.
4. If a PG has Rest of Top 5 but the pageant has Rest of top 7, then as we do not know which finalists placed 4th of 5th, we will treat all the remaining finalists as Rest of Top 5.
5. If a contestant in your Rest of Top 5 makes the actual Rest of Top 7/8, you will get points for correct placement.
Example: If your winner or 1st RU or 2nd RU make the Rest of Top 7 /8, you will get points for incorrect placement.
6. If the PG format includes one winner/title followed by runners up but the actual pageant distributes multiple titles, then the second and third titles in the pageant will correspond to the 1st and 2nd RUs in the PG and so on. In other words, the second highest placement in the pageant (regardless of whether it is a title or RU) will correspond to the second highest placement in the PG, and so on.
7. If the hierarchy of titles or RU positions is unclear, then their order of importance will be determined by the reverse order in which they are announced.
8. If the format of a pageant is different from the format of the prediction game , the Game Master will decide the score system format at his discretion.
