Although now it's become a spectator event...people want to see the best two teams in the final.

Haha, love the good teams freaking out over facing another good team in the opening round. Now you know how we feel. :D

Lets all try to have a good time though.

uNa is pretty scared of ~bye~2
We put our win-lose chances in round one at about 35%-65%

On a serious note, best of luck to all the teams this ladle! I think the match-ups will make for some pretty interesting rounds. Additionally, because of the make-up of the brackets, we could very well see a final match between a traditional strong team and a lesser well known team. Should be exciting for players and specs!

I've talked to a few people and I'm pretty sure most people are freaking out over this because some of them hold concerns about Lizmatic making it to the finals! :P Is she Gfv btw?

And anyway, I understand the concerns of some people about the brackets, but it's not uncommon and it's like baseball. If all the best teams in the MLB are in the American/National league they face each other in the post season instead of the less good teams. It happens.

If this were anything like baseball, when TX beats all the other American teams they would be named world champions, completely ignoring any other countries...

the mlb also has a method to seed playoff teams

your post would make sense if at the beginning of each season, the league randomly assigned teams to the al and the nl...but it doesn't, they are fixed
Well...I did.

Considering her forum name is Deadmau5, she's probably Ddms, and Gfv is probably G5.

Yeah, you're right, but teams get better/worse unpredictably. Doesn't matter anyway.

Sorry Deadmau5, I didn't realize you were Lizmatic. You have like a billion names :)
