Public schedule is wrong/misleading day 5/6

The error happens because all the matches have been numbered consecutively - while the "Winner of/loser of" numbers refers to the numbering having just one number for those "best of 3/4" matches.


Example:
Last entry on day 5

#126 : winner of series 120 vs Loser of 118

"Winner of series 120" refers to what?
according to the (wrong) schedule match #120 is the 2nd match between winner of 107 and winner of 108

This is wrong.

If you want to stick with this consecutive numbering (you shouldn't) it should instead read :
"#126 : winner of series 124 vs Loser of 118"

Solution
Rename those best of 3/4 matches to
117A 1/3
117B 2/3
117C 3/3

118A 1/3
118B 2/3
118C 3/3

etc

Do that and everything will fit correctly - and no other changes are needed
AND - the match numbers will then also fit the match numbers listed on the brackets page.

While, in fact, the information presented is correct given the distinction between a series and a match, I agree it's in an unclear or misleading form at the moment.

We're actually going to make some adjustments to the way the schedule page works this week and among other things the match/series information will be represented more clearly.

Thanks for the feedback,
