Ladle 17 - Seeded teams or no seeded teams?

[Monkey]

Thanks, but you edited it completely wrong.

Durka, I went by the same basic system that whoever put the team numbers on it used but I adjusted it for 9 teams instead of 10. All I did was put names to numbers, so blame that person, not me.

it was to go by this system

I've edited the Ladle challenge board accordingly.

You posted that after I wrote the matchups so I figured you meant that you did it according to that. No worries though.

EDIT:

quarterfinals

@ Wild West/Z-Man's

can't really give away z-mans there since it is taken
Ct ladle 2 will be up an an extra if it is needed there

Yea I had screwed that up, but I fixed it shortly after.

How come the semi-finals server allocation is missing from the records?
Were the semi-final server randomized or not??
I ask also because i see CT1 as one of the semi final server and the other is Wild West/Zman.
Why is one semi final server decided and the other not??

Ideally we want to keep server changing at a minimum, so we had determined that the servers for the Semi Finals would be the same as the ones for the respective Quarter Final matches. This also makes it easier if the server is unknown (WW/Z-Man's for one of the Semi Finals) because only one of the teams will have to change servers.

Ok. I guess my question is why isn't the server for the first semi final say CT1/US Fort 2 and have 2 possibilities like the second semi final?
That still would mean only one team will have to change servers.
Not that i want to since my team is mostly Europeans but just curious...

It works just as the bottom bracket. If there are 2 Euro teams then they play in a Euro server (CT Ladle), if there are 2 US teams then they play in a Euro server (US Fort), and according to when we randomly chose servers, if there was one Euro team and one US team, it would be played in CT Ladle. Well, there's only one US team in the upper half of the bracket so it's impossible for it to be played in US Fort, so it has to be in CT Ladle no matter who wins the Quarter Final games in the upper half of the bracket.

Okee.
