3 more...
Dri, I noticed that I wasn't listed on the list.
are we going to cap this at 32? that would make for a perfect bracket. if we get more (short of 64 total), we'll have to do an opening round with some of the lower seeds.

I will wait until I see how many people sign up before something is decided
i think everyone should be included all well, for sure. we just need to be careful with the bracketing, so that we end up with a true final four, and not a final five like last time. brackets between 32 and 64 are easily accomodated. though there is one final wrinkle if it's an odd number, like 39.
this is gonna be dope!
if there is room I suppose I am in.
I'm going to be eatin alive, and then thrown up, eatin by a dog, and poo'd in a park somewhere.
I don't see my name on the list either???Quote:

Thanks for the invite Dri, looking forward to getting back into it.
:zombie:
NICE!!! Welcome Back Fearless. Glad to see you in on this thing.
Tell O he owes me a freakin' volley!!
is it too late for sign up??
if not then count me in
Wow seems like we have a good many people. Should be very interesting
in. count me.
Will the pairings be random, or will we try to match skill levels? (ie, Fearless vs high skill and not vs one of the first timers).
I'm shaking in my boots.
actually, in a bracket you want the highest seeded/skilled people battling the lowest seeded/skilled people in the early rounds. this prevents heavyweights like gerbick and fearless from going up against each other early on. this is the way all brackets work (football, basketball, etc.) this also makes the road continually harder as your progress through each round. barring an upset (which WILL happen), a participant shouldQuote:

take a look at this page:
http://cbs.sportsline.com/collegebas...ectingtheseeds
see how the #1 seed (the best team) plays the #16 seed (the worst team) in each quad of the bracket. then look what happens to the seeds...see how the #1 and #2 seeds are kept apart until the very end...?
I'm so getting my ass kicked. Dont care. BRING IT!
Ah. I supposed I was just looking at it from a 'Well, at least this way new people don't get creamed at the start' kind of way. But I completely agree with you Nords.
I suppose there are alot of us that will be gone in the first round ;).
don't be like that dawg! bracketville is all ABOUT the upset. remember, people vote on this...it's not some sort of objective scoring. the wisdom of crowds is a powerful, yet unpredictable, beast.Quote:

You know, there are a few people that registered on the forums JUST for this. Pretty huge if you ask me.
I would be one of those :P :mrt:Quote:

like all you new folks post in the kung fu battle.
Thats really a good idea. I'll see what I can do.Quote:
