AdmiralZhao, under the normal rules, that would be true provided that an odd number of people who signed up before you didn't withdraw from the game.


Swan & Stagger Lee, thanks. Though it seems I caught that mistake just before I saw your posts.


Jarkko, thanks for answering Swans question.


Ink & Squirrelloid & chrispedersen, I'm a big fan of "Keep it Simple". I understand your concerns that someone might try to manipulate the odds. I also understand that a seeding would in theory make things more interesting. However, the process of seeding players has to be extremely simple and lacking subjectivity or else it will make players unhappy.

So far I would only be in favor of a complete randomization or perhaps a seeding based on your join date at the forums. The problem is really just too complicated for people not to object to it in some way. If you want a reference as to how hard it would be to rank players without a strong objection, I would like to refer you to the thread about who here is a vet.


Everyone, happy New Year.
