Remember, these are people reacting to the change, I'm still trying to find a thread that talks about it past tense.

There was some interesting discussion on that thread, and a recurring theme was that the seeding at the end of the qualifying matches was close to a random number generator. From our perspective, it has not been that way this year. As top qualifier, we have picked the number 2 seed twice because our scouting and watching of matches indicated that we should. Of course, there may be those out there who think we were top qualifier as the result of random events.
