Now I ain't saying a word till somebody else makes a comment....

We spoke of this already Pete

And as you know, this is all down to the US teams (and Nexus) coming across for the first time this year being bottom seeds.

Examples:

We get Nexus as 6th seed - Worms get Taz
We get Evil Factory as 8th seed - Worms get Impact UK

Now - I'm not taking anything away from anyone - but this system is so obviously wrong !

Either the Series come up with a sensible seeding system that takes into account teams from other Series playing - or they ban teams from other Series from entering (last suggestion not really an option).

Nick, as you know I wrote that post saying as much some time last week before this draw was even made and published.
Now we got no ranking points from Millenniums cuz we ain't played any and this meant we ended up in that group from hell but I thought the seed points from the NPPL counted over here, I am trying to find out now.
When you look at the groups, it is easy to conceive that 8 of the pros from the afternoon session are all gonna go through just because comparatively, they have such weak groups and the morning session pros all ripping each other to bits.
Hmmm...need to think on this a little.... :)

Sweet Jesus!

There are some hardcore pro games Friday morning/ sat afternoon! There are gonna be a whole host of disappointed pro's not attending the Sunday club!:D

(I wait with baited breath for the enevitable dummy spit games!)

This is not a diss of pro players. But it just wouldn't be a high profile tourney without something contentious happening!

Interesting to see both Ton Ton teams playing. However this will bound to cause some sort of argument at some point!

What this draw means is this :- The split between morning and afternoon is say on a par, that is, four teams quilaify from each group, it could be we get four from the afternoon and three from the morning but for the sakes of this post, it's gonna be an even split.

Now for the likes of say Ugly Ducks, Shockwave and us, it's gonna be ten times harder to get in that qualifying four than it will be for any of the pro teams in the afternoon because of the sheer number of big hitters in the the morning groups.

The uneven allocation of teams like BC, Miami Effect and so on gives rise to this anomaly.

From a personal point of view, it is a fantastic oportunity for us guys to learn an awful lot but I do wonder sometimes......
