The time was 29:20, so either 29 or 30 minutes will get the full five. What's the damage here?
within 1 min = 5TB for: HoHo, Brett
1 min off = 4TB for: Looch

5 mins off = 0TB for: Tommy Shelby, Jimmy King, Lethal
6 mins off = -1TB for: Deadd2009

The runners-up were Boltin and Bishamon so...
2TB (correct) -
1TB (picked TMDK) - Tommy Shelby, Jimmy King, Storm Trooper, Lethal, Doom
0TB - Chris, Roy Mustang, HoHo, Mr. PrettyGood, LadyHotRod, Looch, Dubb, Blaze
For 3TB: How many wrestlers will change faction over the course of the evening? Only one, as Jake Lee was recruited to United Empire. 3TB for: Roy Mustang, HoHo
This game's winner is... As a reminder, you are sorted on: prediction score, then total number of right predictions, then TB points, then reverse order in the rankings, then earliest submission
Maximum possible score for this event would be: 36pt. (8/8, 51TB)
The Free-For-All
Roy Mustang - 32pt. (6/8, 6TB)
Brett - 30pt. (5/8, 7TB)
Tommy Shelby - 29pt. (5/8, 2TB)
Chris - 27pt. (6/8, 3TB)
Mr. PrettyGood - 24pt. (5/8, -11TB)
Jimmy King - 22pt. (4/8, 2TB)
Deadd2009 - 16pt. (4/8, 0TB)
Dubb - 14pt. (4/8, -3TB)
Lethal - 12pt. (3/8, 3TB)
Storm Trooper - 10pt. (2/8, -1TB)
Blaze - 8pt. (3/8, -4TB)
A seriously mixed bag here. But picking out the best of the mix, @Roy Mustang challenges at Event #28!
I really can't argue with any of the decisions here except Syuri over Saya, but I guess a whole bunch of people here can given how many were blindsided by the result
