Who says that a Div. 1 team won't be beat by a lower division team in the early rounds?
Um, I didn't. Thanks though.
Remember last season? You were beat by a Div. 4 team in the 1st round.
Yep, I remember it well. Though I'm not sure what you're getting at.
If the 1st 2 rounds are set rounds, then the rest of the teams would be solid competition, and could make the games randomized again. The settings would be based off of your country ranking.
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Making the draw purely random puts everyone on a level footing. I fail to see the problem with that.
