The Cogs - Season 2 Rules and Format
N-Sunderland:
Better yet, I think that positions 2-4 from the finale should get to pick their seed in the challenger's Cog, with the second-placed team getting first dibs and so on. That team may or may not actually want to play the champions in week 1.

There were some changes as the lowest seed was in reality the second best seed as it gets to play and advance faster. (example being that 3 a is best in terms of ability to advance, 3 b was worst and 3 e was second best). If we are going with that concept, shouldn't Polaris and PaFa switch their 2 c and 2 b since PaFa scored better than Polaris in season 1 finale but in the current set up they are in the worse position to advance.

Yeah, going to quote myself from the week 0 thread:
--- Quote from: Surette on June 24, 2013, 04:39:06 pm ---Yeah, imo everything would be much less confusing if 3e was actually 3b, etc. 3b should correspond to the second highest seed, but it's actually the lowest. Everything would continue functioning as it already is, just reverse the lettering. My two cents.

Actually, you got that one wrong. PaFa was supposed to choose between 2b and 2c due to their seed, but I haven't been able to catch them online so they can make the choice. Seems easier just to give PaFa 2c.
And I realise that it's a tricky concept to wrap your head around (Trust me, took me a while to figure out too), but once I get the preview for Week 1 up, things should be back to normal.
As a sidenote: The slots were originally numbered 1-10... I was asked to change them to their current format, so I did. If anyone has a better idea for a way to represent the cogs without uploading a jpg, be sure to let me know.
Squash:
Why is it that pafa gets to choose their seed but Brood doesn't?
N-Sunderland:
Yeah, how does that make sense? As I said, it'd only be fair to give the second-placed teams first choice of seed, followed by the third-placed team, and then the fourth-placed one would get the remaining spot.
