No no no no, A1 is still A1 and H2 is still H2. However, if your A2 for example happened to be Poland and you filled in a bracket that said Poland was going to the finals, well, you probably don't want that. Feel free to change that and make them lose in the round of 16 to your B1, England for example.
There is no swapping of the original groups that you chose.
Does this make sense?

Group play complete. Standings which I pray I did correctly:
Ircknewskool - 68 points Keeper - 59 points TJFOR3 - 55 points Rim Touching - 55 points Maizeandblue15 - 55 points Sep - 54 points Bama - 53 points DaBears54 - 52 points DB - 50 points Jxtuoleafs - 49 points Usmaman - 45 points
Quite a few good days today. Rim Touching went just 1-3 which really hurt him. My group picks killed me, but thanks to a 4-0 day and superb group picks, Irck charges into a commanding lead.

if you pick the winner of a group, you get 4....if you pick the runner up correctly, you get 2, and if your 2nd place pick finished 1st you get 1...
Irck had very good group picks

Probably not.
But seeing as I started abysmally, I can live with second.
@jx: Okay, so we're picking the winner of the game. For instance, I can have Sweden over Poland, and if Sweden beats Ecuador, I still pick up points, no?

Tread on Us is right.
Do it this way. Allow peopel to swithc their semifinal, brone, and gold picks accordingly. However, don't allow someone to drop a result from any earlier than that.
