How will seeding be determined for this? There are a couple of big ties in points among those qualified.

The bracket will be randomized and recorded (to dispel anymore Axiom conspiracy theories by tin foil hat master Rifkin)

It's whoever earned the most points in the least attempts. So Ryung only participated once to get his points while the other people tied with him were in more tournaments. Olimoley can confirm this...

We talked pretty extensively about this, actually. Zombiegrub & Rifkin both being in Toronto for FanExpo/IEM would have meant delaying the Monthly Finals until the next weekend, and both Olimoley & us decided it'd be best to keep the very first monthly on schedule. We were happy to yield the cast for the good of the league :D

We will see you nerds Sept 6th though.
