Swiss Draw of doom

Ok, So I amdown to a handful of badges, two arena ones currently elude me, pentad and more importantly, Swiss Draw.

How exactly does this thing work? I had a team of 8, all willing to help me, I won my first round and then I wasn't invited into the second.

Is this badge currently bugged, or is there something about it I'm missing, is there a trick to it that can be shared?

It isn't so much that the badge is bugged, as much as the Swiss Draw tournaments themselves are bugged. It will randomly declare the wrong people as the victor in a match.

The best advice I can give is to make sure everyone stays on the maps until a victor is shown.

Sort of a threadjack-

Does anyone know if the Pentad badge is bugged? Thats the last one I need for the arena.

When we were running Swiss Draw on Triumph a few months back, I started taking notes on the seemingly random results. What I found was that the overall winner was not determined by who won each round, but by what position they held on the team list.

In both of the matches we completed, the players who advanced to the second round were always in slots 2, 3, 4, and 5 on the team window, regardless of who actually won the round. The players who advanced to the third and final round were always in slots 2 and 3 on the team window, again, regardless of who actually won. The winner of that round would get the badge as expected.

Unfortunately, we crashed the PvP terminals before we could do a third match, so I only have those two sets of data. The OP might want to try again using this info and see if it is still true.
