Question 1

What if there is a knockout (KO)?

Accepted Answer

A knockout, TKO, or submission is a Finish — and correctly calling the round it happens in pays a 500-point Finish Bonus on top of your round-winner points. If you pick the right fighter to win the finish round, you earn 100 (Round Winner) + 25 (auto-paired) + 500 (Finish Bonus) = 625 points for that round alone. If you miss the finish round pick, that round scores 0. Every other round pays a flat 25-point Survival Bonus regardless of accuracy, plus your round-winner points if you called it right.

Question 2

Why would anyone participate if the score is automatically adjusted for knockouts?

Accepted Answer

The scoring system helps level the playing field by adjusting for unpredictable outcomes like knockouts. Even if you choose a fight that ends in a KO, the scoring remains 'full' as if it went the distance, allowing for unexpected twists and keeping the competition relevant.
