IT IS ADVISABLE to create a (free) Challonge account first. That way you can easily find your prediction afterwards, on the "predictions" page. Your prediction will automatically appear at the top of the page. (This can take some time when a lot of predictions have been put up.)

However: an account is not mandatory. If you choose not to create an account, you will receive a unique link after completing your bracket. You should keep that link carefully. It will allow you to change your prediction before the start of the tournament. After the start of the tournament you will be able find your prediction in two ways:

1. the easiest way: by saving the website address of your prediction or putting it in the bookmarks / bookmarks.
2. using the search function of your computer. (Ctrl-F for a Windows computer or apple-F for a Mac computer)

Below two manuals:

• Your bracket WITH Challonge account
• Your bracket WITHOUT Challonge account

Your bracket WITH Challonge account

• Create a Challonge account by clicking on the orange "sign up" box at the top right. Follow the instructions you receive. If your account has been created, make sure you are logged in. If you have an account and you have not yet logged in, click on "log in" at the top right.
• To join, click on the green box "create a prediction".
• Now you can see the bracket. Drag the expected winner from 1st round to 2nd round. And so on, up to and including the final. To predict the winner of the final, just scroll down; this must be filled in separately.
• Then give your bracket a name and enter your email address. Your email address will not be visible to others.
• Finally click on "save current progress".
• If you have filled in your bracket while you were logged in to your Challonge account, your bracket automatically appears at the top after you click on the "predictions" tab. (Provided you have logged in again.) This way you can easily find your bracket, without searching.
• You can change your prediction until the start of the tournament. NOT AFTERWARDS!

Your bracket WITHOUT Challonge account

• To join, click on the green box "create a prediction".
• Now you can see the bracket. Drag the expected winner from 1st round to 2nd round. And so on, up to and including the final. For predicting the winner of the final just scroll down; this must be filled in separately.
• Then give your bracket a name and enter your email address. Your email address will not be visible to others.
• Finally click on "save current progress".
• You now will receive a unique link that gives you access to your bracket prediction. KEEP OR BOOKMARK THE LINK! You can change your prediction until the start of the tournament. NOT AFTERWARDS!
• The unique link no longer works after the start of the tournament. You can then find your prediction in two ways:

1. The easiest way: keep the website address of your prediction or bookmark it.
2. Use your computer search function on the "predictions" page. (Ctrl-F for a Windows computer or apple-F for a Mac computer). To be able to do this, YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THE NAME you gave to your bracket prediction, otherwise you won't know what to look for! Also, take note that the predictions may have been divided over several pages. If your prediction is not on the first page, you may click at the bottom of the first page to go to the next page or pages.

• Your bracket does not automatically appear at the top, as it would when you have an account and are logged in. If you have filled in your bracket without a Challonge account, you can not just find the bracket by creating an account afterwards. That will only possible for the next bracket that you enter with a Challonge account.
