We used MS accuracy 5 ppm and MS/MS accuracy 60 ppm, but no other parameters were adjusted. For Challenges 2, 4 and 6 we used the recalibrated data, for 1, 3 and 5 the original data (as Challenge 5 was outside the 5 ppm range in the recalibrated data). We submitted the formulas generated with these settings, using the combined match value as the score. Where multiple MS/MS files were available we combined them to get the maximum number of peaks, using the peak of highest intensity where the same peak occurred more than once. As the score was not weighted by intensity, this should make no difference to the outcome. For the revised entries of Chal 1-6, we also removed isotope peaks from the MSMS, where these were recognisable as such. If in doubt, these were left in.
