LOL the seeding is done random! poul 2 results don't even matter!!!! Terrible, i can't believe tio would actually do that

1. Zhu was second in his poul
1. Vanz was first in his poul
1. Vwins was first in his poul
1. Dr. PP was first in his poul
1. Faab was second in his poul
1. pydoyk was third in his poul

so yeah, with fair seeding, that's not even possible, every poul should have 2 top seeds, two mid seeds en two low seeds. This poul has one top seed more and one third seed less, making it a lot harder

really unfair imo.

anyway, i don't think it's going to be changed anymore so, stream this poul

most pools have 2/2/2, but we had to change a few due to SERIOUS region mishaps. i usually dont care if 2 people are in the same pool from the same region, but 4?

if you guys could see what happened BEFORE they got slightly edited, some of them were so ridiculous. like i said though those arent 100% final.

i will probably fix that pool, along with a few others that are a bit more tough, just have to make sure the seeding matches as best as possible.

you probably know nothing about tournaments anyway, so i dont know why im explaining myself to you, but nonetheless, there it is

****

how on earth did dahean go to the same pool as armada if both got 1st in their second pools and both are european top players..

also.. over will have a hard time with mango and his pool :(

go you two, go europe!

zgetto beat m2k for our sake
Both are first seeds, that's why. >_>;;

But imo, that's quite unacceptable decision tio made rofl, I really hope it's not finalised. It would be hella stupid in 2 ways, strawy against another european (who also happens to be the best in our regions rofl) and wtf HDL AGAIN? That would be super unfair for Lord HDL too, seeing that strawy beat him last pool. Like, you don't go 2 rounds against the same player successively on brackets either, if at all till grandes. >_>

I'd have no gripes watching this... but just saying that this is such an idiotic pool it's not funny anymore. :/

It's this pool, or pool 8/2 for me though. :p Zgetto vs m2k yauhhzz.

wtf, i've been to like 50 tournaments over the past 7 (!) years, ask any european over there. i'm sure they all know me.

i don't know what that had to do with my opinion in the first place, i think it was a solid argument why some pools should be changed.

Marc actually should not have made it out. Watty will/should be taking that spot as there was a 3 way tie for 3rd seed and he beat marc. Were going to the venue now and that'll probably be changed.

I assume the bracket will also still be changed?
there are 5 euro-teams (2 spanish, 2 swedes, 6 dutchies) in there + lovage-remen (dutchie).
1st quarter, no europeans
2nd quarter, spanish+swedish
2nd half, all the dutchies

:/

it's not that bad imo

half a bracket is a lot, plus some teams go to the other half of the bracket in losers, double elim takes care of this. It's not like they're really next to each other.

marc got 2 sets, 6 games and 7 loses
watty got 2 sets, 6 games and 8 loses

but actually it should be BigD 2nd and Harriet 3rd, leaving Marth 4th and Watty 5th if you use the best possible system for big tournaments

Watty and Marc both went 6-7 unless I just miscounted a few times.
Watty then beat Marc.

No idea how you work that. But Watty just told me he should have made it out of pools and will be talking to plank. If someone disagrees he won't be a happy camper.

I do wonder why each and every dutch is in the same side of the bracket though and Lovage + remen right next to amsah+adam, even though both ***** their pools the same and there's not big of a skill difference between these players either. Could easily be swapped with one in the topmost quarter of the bracket imo.

Watty got 6-8 according to AiB. (Marc won once 2-0 and Watty got every Set he won a 2-1)

but as i said, if you use s/g/l, both wouldnt make it out if top3 advances

Dude, take a look at pool 2 and tell me doesn't need a change.

I know Plank has said the reason for that, but still, there are other pools which "easy" compared to that one.

Axe Boss and Plank are going to cause Armada to not make it out pools. Although i'm sure plank might forfeit after winning anyway to show courtesy for him traveling all this way.

Also, DR. PP vs ZHU!

wtf why are there 2 CHADS. How will pool operators tell the difference. There is one in darkrains pool and one in scars pool.

you never know :)

Also is it top 2 make it out or top 3? Because if so, Lucky might not make it out behind rockcrock and ChuDat

Putting two people in the same pool who came from the same region in the USA is something.
But two people who crossed the Atlantic to be there ($$$), who know each other well, and are both pretender to win this thing is just insulting.

And I'm a TO, if there's a need to specify...

Pool 2 is hard but has no problem regarding the origins of its player so... it's just no luck.
