How are seeds determined for this? Is it strictly effective or average level?

i thought it was by pwn lvl

I thought it was just a random draw

I thought so as well. Then 6 of the 10 prep teams who did not receive byes were all underground teams and all set to play each other. No way that was random.

I assume it's random, but I suppose people could PM Support and ask for specific matchups.

Just spit-ballin' here though.

It's completely random and terrible.

In PW there are teams with CPU rosters with first round byes and a couple of games where Gold teams are pitted against another Gold team.

Only an admin would know but it's likely either just random, or by when people sign up (ie filling in the bracket as people sign in)

Did all the "underground" teams sign up at about the same time? Could explain that.

I don't think it's first come, first serve based on the fact I've been the first to enter a couple of times and still ended up with a tough first round game.

Also got in just before it closed and didn't get a bye. So I'm positive it's either random or GLB intentionally makes the brackets really bad.

No the underground teams did not sign up at the same time. What would signing up at the same time have to do with byes?

My suspicion is that someone had their hand in it. We have dealt with discriminate admin in the past. Would make sense for them to get rid of a big chunk of underground teams before the tourney really started.

It just seems to be too much of a coincidence, but maybe that is all it is.

Pretty sure it's entirely random. Would be bad for business if they intentionally set the tournaments up like this.

You say it like they do things that are actually good for business.

Here are some facts. There is no way this was random.

Only ten teams did not get bye weeks.

6 of the ten teams were MLF teams.

Only 6 MLF teams entered the tournament.

3 of the 5 first round games were MLF vs MLF.

Half of the MLF teams would be eliminated and would never had a chance to make it to round 2 no matter what.

Don't forget to put on your tinfoil hat.
