I'm not seeing details on how CC3 brackets will be scored... is it overall % correct? sometimes brackets assign points to each round your team advances... how is the winner determined in this case?

The bracket is scored automatically on the site. Each round points increases linearly (1,2,3,4...) So 4 teams correct round 1 = 4 points, 4 teams correct round 2 = 8 points (total 12), etc.
Hope that helps.

Lol, any other suggestions on a more catchy title will be entertained for the deserving winner
I should have posted the [Official] List of Clans - With Links so people could know more about who's in their respective clans. I think you can still adjust your prediction if the list helps you know who's who!

Wow, that was fast, guess I really have to fork out the extra 3 months!
Would that be the very out of date [Official] List of Clans with links

That won't count for the competition tho
never mind, if i miss something, then i will not give any other prediction,but if i predict all correct,then i will predict for 4th round. real reward its if you predict all scores, not to predict half results and half miss. I hope that these is ok?

Wow, that is a really convenient function you discovered on Challonge.
This really gets around the problem of filling the form nicely, doesn't it?

The Dispatch's Clan team sends our sincere apologies if you've received this correspondence twice in error, or if we have caused severe heartache in sending unwanted and unwarranted solicitation. It should never be repeated!
It seems to have snowballed a bit.

Some very interesting predictions have been made! Predictions are now CLOSED
You can use the link previously provided to view all members predictions! We had 119 entries (plus a handful via PM / in the thread)! Great turn out!
As the wars move on, I will update challonge results and you will see your scores automatically adjusted. Just cheer on your picks, keep your Mouse clicking finger at the ready and above all have fun
There is also a discussion thread on the prediction page itself, where you can discuss others picks etc

As a guy who's interested in stats, predictions, perceptions etc I thought others might like this information as well. Even if just to look at while bored...
If overall mentions / votes are semi-indicative of how well people think clans will place, are there any surprises? Some to high? Some to low? Any specific catagories hold any surprises for anyone?
EX: As a member of KOA, I find it surprising that most of KOA’s votes did NOT come from KOA members.

The first war entry has been submitted, LotZ over MB. Looks roughly 50/50 as far as who picked which to advance. Just remember the earliest rounds are worth the least points.
There should be a few more clans securing 21 here shortly.

LOTZ will probably win, but they still havent won 21 you should wait for 2-3 more days...

Yes I'm aware, I looked at all games before updating. And I can edit the result and scoring very easily if some of those games magically go from 1 vs 30 to a win

FOED has just won 21st game vs VDLL. I will update the prediction chart shortly.
Also, while I'm marking them down when the deciding game has been won - i will also edit in the official final scores when all games get wrapped up.
Remember I will NOT be posting scores here, you will need to check directly the challonge link given previously. There are only THREE people who did not get either of the first two clan wars - josko, VampireM, and Nicky15! (although there is a long way to go!)
After the first five results (or anticipated / expected results) there are only 7 players who have perfect scores remaining.
Please note, if the expected result changes then scores will be updated to reflect actual results when the clan war is fully completed. I normally wait until a clan has 21 wins (31 for future rounds) or are at 20 with someone down to a few territories etc (ie act of god to not win). But in the end, it'll all reflect the actual end results for scoring purposes.
