I just wanted to say how impressive Toro has been through all the grading contests these past years. He won Nik's Grading Contest TWICE in a row and now he apparently didn't miss a single book in the Seeding Round within the constraints of the current contest.

Yep, he's a tough-azz grader . . . but at least he didn't nail them all! :ohnoez:

 

If he ends up winning this one, we'll have to either ban him or handicap everyone else lol

It is the top 32 right that are seeded right? me am stoopid

 

I believe all 63 get seeded, and last year's winner gets a bye the first round.

 

Nope. :makepoint:

 

(shrug)

 

Here' show I think Tom will do it: 68 teams total, but we need 64 for the weekend tourney. Therefore, the last eight teams:

 

61. slseals 8- 5

62. 1koko 8 -5

63. marvelcollector 7- 5

64. Byosti 7 -5

65. Flatrock02 7 -6

66. cookie1963 7- 6

67. Boozad 6- 8

68. xsmanx 5- 7

 

Each have a head-to-head "play-in" game, i.e.,:

 

61. slseals 8- 5 vs. 68. xsmanx 5- 7

62. 1koko 8 -5 vs. 67. Boozad 6- 8

63. marvelcollector 7- 5 vs. 66. cookie1963 7- 6

64. Byosti 7 -5 vs. 65. Flatrock02 7 -6

 

The four winners of the play-in games advancing to the 61. through 64. seeds. :grin:

 

But hey, this is only a guess . . . ;)

 

 

That pretty much nails it on the head. I will have the play-in scans up tonight along with the rules for these and subsequent games. We'll run the play-in games in this thread and start a new thread to begin the tournament.

You were supposed to play it cool and wait for someone else to point that out. Now we're going to suspect that you simply undergraded everything as an obvious marketing ploy! lol
