So you disagree that there were players on that team who played on the top four teams last year?

SpeedyG,

There is really no point in trying to help you understand since you have made up you mind that I am full of "bullshit". I would offer you to call me at 801-544-9844 to discuss this but since you have made up your mind there is no point.

You and a few other people are making a lot of assumptions that are not correct, but if you want to hate and attack me for trying to run tournaments thats your right, even when you are Wrong.

1) Not all players on a season winning team are moved up. If you are referring to Bradey Scadden he did not play the full season with Frantic 2 in 2006.

2) The event Brackets have been created the same every event, based on season standings, teams 1, 3, 5, etc are in one group and 2, 4, 6, etc in another. The remaining teams are placed in open spots based on when they register, because I have no way to know if they are good or not. Thus if Mindless reaction registered before Random they would have been the 8th team in your bracket. I do not look at the last event or who played where. Notice that by being 1st in season standings you placed yourself in a different bracket than you previously played in.

The entire reason I do it this way is to prevent any staff bias from entering into the draws. That is also why we play round robin with in bracket instead of random draw from a pool of 16 teams. Its more balanced, IMO.

3) I actually sponsor several teams some of which did not do well Saturday.

Its always interesting that the system is fine when you win and somehow its personal when a team looses.

If you really wanted to address your concerns you could have done that face to face after the event or called me. Trying to Argue and attack me on a forum group is not constructive.
