I don’t see why not. He got lucky, just like I got lucky in one of my current brackets in which no one else seems to be playing Domination. Granted, I’ve got about 400 scoops and everyone else in the bracket has, at most, 50. Who’s to say that this guy wouldn’t have been in a similar bracket of ‘pbumive’ players? |

He’s just lucky and will win 3 medals without doing anything. It happened to me once, but I was with another player and he wasn’t domming. |

Is it possible to win only 2 medals if you’re in a bracket all by yourself, or can you not win min scoops if you have zero? |

A while ago ET said that solo brackets didn’t medal but I can’t remember where. I guess we’ll see. |

Hitting a solo bracket at the wrong end of your streak could mean a waste of 4 weeks if you’re not allowed to medal.
One way to fix this, barring more participants, would be by randomising the brackets a bit more. Mixing players of different tiers together until the bracket is filled. This would also allow solo players with medals in the same tiers to get their alts lumped in a single bracket less often. I have 3 alts in the second bracket this week and it’s just awkward.
Another would be to eliminate players who haven’t earned scoops (or move them to a bracket where only 1 or 2 medals can be won) and merge brackets together half way through the week, if the bracket is quiet. |

It’s probably a case of just, no one in his bracket played Dom, rather than him being in a bracket by himself. |

MeatLoafFan Posted: Or else, the medal tier had a limit of (say) 18 per bracket, and he was the 19th.
If you’re correct, this is an example of why prebumigning brackets is a bad idea. Of course, if they’re not prebumigned, players can manipulate where they’re positioned by delaying earning scoops, so that’s a bad idea too… meeeeeeeeee edited this message on 04/22/2009 4:50PM |

That’s what I did way back when. I don’t think it’s worked for a while, but I haven’t tested it lately.

It still works and seeding depends on total alts, not your 5 or fewer domination-eligible alts. It’s how amasius and meeeeeee ended up with more than one alt in the top bracket a number of times last season. It happens to some extent in other brackets, too. |

I don’t see anything wrong with that. If he’s a bad dom player, they’ll slam him as soon as he gets into top 3 brackets. If not – that’s just a lucky chance that saved him a week to sweep a normal bracket. |
