dance210: Hi!! I do the Skirmishes and seed the playoffs the same way
The top 20% of teams go to
the Alpha playoffs. The top 21 - 50% of teams go to the Bravo
playoffs. The bottom 50% of teams (excluding the red teams) go to
the Charlie playoffs. Within each of those groups you are
correct, teams are sorted a) by rank then b) alphabetically based
on. When I make the playoffs I start seeding the teams
from the top and work my way down the ranks, using S-seeding
between all the playoff brackets. If I come to teams that are
tied in rank, I randomly select teams within that rank. Why?
Because alphabetically is a silly way to sort teams. Each team
within a certain rank has an equal chance of being seeded in that
playoff position, instead of team "Apple" always getting a higher
seed than team "Zebra." The weekend playoffs are done
separately and aren't manually seeded; the tournament tool does
that based on whatever algorithm it uses
