If a player is being invited they shouldnt really have their rank points considered at all because its a completely different means of entry. And its obvious been unfair to the other players who have had their groups shuffled around to accomodate They aren't considered. If you take out Boxer/Bomber from the rankings, then the seeds fall exactly into place like it's supposed to. They just sorted the groups by points after the fact. | ||

The rest are moved to the lower bracket with the 2nd place person from the group only needing to play one best of 3 before they can play the loser of the semi finals. | ||

Really want MC to win MLG, because players who win MLG often go on to do well in GSL (MMA reached final, MVP won GSL, Bomber is probably gonna do well too...). Well, MMA got knocked out of Code A immediately after winning MLG, and MC has already proven he is a top player. | ||

It would not be fair to those that competed at the beginning under those rules. Next year we are revamping the seeds completely. Yes, that's why you need to be more flexible. I understand that you view the entire circuit as a season, and that each junction in it should be 100% equal, but that's not how anyone else views it and it holds your product back. We get an inferior product (worse pool play) because of it. You have a bad point system. You have a relatively small prize pool. It's a new event, not game 5 of a 5 game season. You should make the jump and correct those shortcomings. No one from game/events 1-4 will seriously complain about improvements being made mid-season. It's the same kind of rigidity NASL showed last season when they used the wrong map, and forced everyone to play out a bad map for 2 weeks. Adherence to rules and regulations should only go so far. As an admin, it's your call to make if you want to adjust. If you're uncomfortable with it, you could even ask every pool participant if they would mind. I guarantee you'll get 100% yes, for reforming the system mid-season. | ||
