Re: [Official 2006 Game Design] Radical Tournament Ideas
Instead of the current alliance 1 plays 8, 2 plays 7, 3 plays 6, and 4 plays 5, in the quarterfinals, I would like to see something more along the lines of 1 plays 2, 3 plays 4, etc because 1 vs 8 is usually right away two wins by #1 but 4 vs 5 is well matched competition and it is not clear who will win. So, make the higher alliances work hard to stay in the game and make the lower alliances have a better chance of moving on.
