hey, quick question... if you're sorting the brackets to put players of similar skill together (based on that player rank list), won't that automatically eliminate half of the good players? if you were looking for one top player it wouldn't matter, but for building a team wouldn't you want the brackets to avoid putting the highly skilled players in positions to knock each other out?

maybe im reading it wrong... lol

I'll pull out of the tournament to concentrate on casting since all games start at the same time. Cheers Reflex!

The way it works is the guy on the top of the list plays the person on the bottom of the list, and so on. ie the top seed plays the lowest seed. Second highest players the second lowest. That way top players don't face each other until the finals.

The list is generated automatically based on your ladder rating and league. Diamond > plat > gold > silver > bronze.

Here is a link to an example bracket: http://challonge.com/images/brackets/TestRunNZ.png
- As you can see in this example you are the 31st seed - who will play the 34th, and if you win will move on to play the second seed etc. I am sure you can work it out.

Also, for reflex (going out tonight so won't be able to send it again): http://pastebin.com/ZFRFsidH

I hope you know that rating points has very little to do with skill. A player in Corruptor Tango with 400 rating points is of similar skill to a player in say Carrier Kilo (or any of the newer Diamond divisions) with 1200 points.
The fact the tournament is double elimination means you don't need to seed players. Or alternatively you could seed players in Blizzard's official top200 list and seed noone else. Or I guess you could do what you are doing at the moment, it's just not very scientific is all

Edit: Also with that system one could hypothetically control their rating so as to get an easier bracket.

Are you sure about the difference in skills in brackets? I thought the only difference is the overall placement. A 1200 skilled player would have the same skill level across all divisons wouldnt they? as you dont only play people in your own divison. A 1000 player may be rank 1 in one divison but another 1000 player may be rank 10 in another, but if those 2 players played each other wouldnt they have similar skill?
