And I'm not saying this to be a dick to you, stip. You do all the legwork with this, and that's great. And kudos to you for trying something different this year, that's commendable in and of itself. I just think it ended up being a bad decision.

Yeah after Green Bay lost to the Seahawks they showed great resiliency by beating the Patriots. Oh wait, no sport has ever worked that way ever.

Oh, perhaps this is why it's completely inscrutable to me.

Not too fond of this finale, I wanted this to be either Faithfull or BoJ year.
Still, DtE, and its not even close, yield deserves a winner.

I can only presume that, at the end of the regular season, both Packers and Seahawks fans were stunned by the existence of the Superbowl.

I'm voting neither, because I want to vote for stip instead. He worked his ass off doing this thing, and received fuck all help from us lazy ass mods. He also had shitloads going on outside of RM that are much more important than this thing.

You lot should be ashamed of yourselves. Nothing but a whiny bunch of children. Next year, those that are whining are being delegated full responsibility of running March Madness.

Ok, I changed my mind. Vote for DTE.

Having a regular season where you might play a team multiple times makes sense when you're playing a game. There are so many factors that go into how a game is decided that playing multiple times gives you a truer representation of who the better team is. But these matchups aren't games, they're opinion polls. So having a team lose and then come back seems very silly to me.

This while thing is pretty silly when you think about it.

This setup makes it a single elimination tourney for 95% of the songs and double elimination tourney for the other 5% of the songs. It just seems crooked at the end.

I'm not trying to be a bitch about this. It was still fun, and I'm glad stip took the time to do it, and I'm glad he is willing to try and shake things up a bit and try something new. But despite that, I think this is a better tournament if it's single elimination the whole way through.
