While I'm sure there is a story with a chuckle behind this post...
I remember seeing somewhere along the way, using all the teams to form alliances with one alliance incomplete (I would guess it was the 8th seeded), and then running the first quarterfinal and selecting the highest ranked team eliminated in that first QF to fill the partial alliance. That way all of the teams still play in the elimination rounds.

Good luck to all of the participants!
