Re: Championship Event - Where the "Random" Match Sorting Really "Shines"

I do think that a truely random match listing would be unfair, but one idea is to take previous teams placements a point value, and make rookies random.

AC1 - 10pts
AC2 - 9pts
AC3 - 8pts
AC4 - 7pts
AC5 - 6pts
AC6 - 5pts
AC7 - 5pts
AC8 - 5pts

Pick 1 - 15pts
Pick 2 - 12pts
Pick 3 - 10pts
Pick 4 - 8pts
Pick 5 - 8pts
Pick 6 - 5pts
Pick 7 - 5pts
Pick 8 - 5pts

All Second Round Picks - 3pts

DNQ - 1pt

From there, decide upon ties as being random. I think this system would need some work done to it to make it effective, but it is just a concept.
