Yeah BB needs to make it so that you face the closest people to your ranking( and somepeople get bots) that way what happened to me with pokeystars in season 16 wont happen again ;). I could of made it to the top 32 or even closer and i was in D.III.

I agree it shouldnt be that random, but you cant play people closest to your ranking, because then bots would make it to semifnials playing each other alll the time. There should be some number of teams seeded (Either whole Naismith or both Naismith and II league), and then other teams should have a draw (something like tennis tournaments)

Playing people around the same rank is the very definition of unfair. Do you think all the Naismith teams should play each other in the early rounds so we'd already know who's going to win the tournament by the end of the 4th round? Susequently all the DV bots are playing each other half the tournament too?

You were a D3 team ranked between 200-250 two years ago and finished in the top 64. That sounds like a pretty good draw for you so I'm not sure what you're complaining about?

i have no idea how the tournament is set up in the system and this probably belongs in the suggestions forums....
but cant the cup games be set like a real tournament?
#1 seed faces #2056
#2 seed faces #2055
and teams advance according to the tree (if u follow NCAA, then u know what im talking about, its friday afternoon, pardon my lack of vocabulary)
probably frees up the server from randomly matching teams up after every round too?

you know i would really enjoy this. everyone has the first 2 or 3 rounds easy and than they can look down the brackets and see how to prepare. I am sure all the top teams would love this as well. its kinda crapppy for them when its a naismith vs naismith in round 2.

it does add some randomness to the tournment and thats fun once in awhile but two years in a row facing a top team. it sucks.

oh well looks like this is the year i just keep my entsasium at 10 or 9 all year and just TIE against the kings, and focus on finally moving up to DII. so long canadian tournment season 18, if i draw him next in season 19 it damn well better not be till round 8.

You really can't complain, too much - you could've drawn the kings in round 3 - just like his last victim this past week did (and he wasn't a bot team!!) - so you made some bucks, at least - spend wisely

Are you aware you're playing an 18 year old all-time great potential player 120-140 minutes every week?

If that continues, it will only ruin the development of this prospect...
