Winner(s) for Ganondorf+Zelda: swirldude with 630 points. swirldude had 630 points.
swirldude is ALIVE


So what does this mean? Ganon and Zelda have to win out for me to win the Guru? But that wouldn't be possible if you assume Link wins the contest. Also TRE has this same Ganon+Zelda combo but more total points than me, so does that mean he's already eliminated me?

Two things here:
1) the combination listed is for matches that you are guaranteed to be wrong. It assumes that all picks that *could* happen, do happen, and runs every possible combination of winners for the ones that cant. In your case, Zelda is referring to 131, where you have Squall picked. Ganondorf is referring to 129, because...
2) one of my checks is off for the losers bracket - it thinks that Ganondorf is not a valid option for 129 even though hes still valid. It doesnt impact scores, since the list of valid winners for that match is generated by a different function (in the correct way). But every bracket that has Ganondorf picked in 129 will show up as that match wrong in this file.

Also, it terminates if it finds a scenario where you win, so basically its more useful for stuff like Monika pickers, where someone still alive has a bunch of guaranteed wrong picks, where you can see it iterating through.
