Alliance Picking Rules Change?!
Okay,

I'm flipping between the webcast at VCU and the Peachtree regionals.

Are there TWO different sets of rules being used in picking?

At the VCU Regional, the annoucer said ANY team that declines cannot participate in the elimination rounds. This includes a top 8 seed picking another top 8 seed. If the chosen top 8 seed declines, then they cannot participate in the elimination rounds!!! Apparently this is new for 2005.

At the Peachtree however, 1180 had two of their picks decline, both of which were other top 8 seeds. These teams, even though they declined, were allowed to continue, and even make their own picks!!!

What's the deal?
