              You get advancement 
              points in all matches except placing ones. In other words finals 
              for 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 and 7-8. In those matches the winner gets 
              placement points. 
              Advancement points in the championship bracket are 2 points, 
              and 1 point in the consolation bracket. 
              Placement points are awarded as they are earned. So if you make 
              the semifinals you get placement points for 6th place. (the lowest 
              you can finish). Then if you make the finals you get the placement 
              points for 2nd. If you win in the finals there is no advancement 
              points you just get the additional placement points for 1st. So a 
              win in the finals would change your teams score by 4 to 6 points 
              depending on if any bonus points were earned. 
              16 man bracket with 8 places.
              Placement points are this.
              1st - 16
              2nd - 12
              3rd - 9
              4th - 7
              5th - 5
              6th - 3
              7th - 2
              8th - 1 
              So the maximum points a person could score would be 6 
              advancement points plus the 16 placement points. Plus 2 bonus 
              points a match x 4 matches for a total of 30 points.
