Hey,

I thought I was doing pretty well, understanding everything that was going on, until we came to the championship. I don't understand how you determine who goes when. I understand this much:

Each team's top 12 seeding matches alliance totals are added together, then the teams are ranked by this total. Starting from the highest ranking, each team gets to choose another team to become their alliance. Beyond this, I'm lost--can #1 select #2? Does that mean the 13th ranked team slides up and gets to select a team for their alliance? Also, how does anyone determine which alliance plays when? Could you possibly post the bracket you used, and give an explanation to a newbie?

Thanks so much...for putting up with me!
