Re: Do you like the seeding system?

I preferred the previous seeding system. We will work with the current system. Neither system is perfectly efficient at ranking all the teams. Both allow a few teams to be "carried" into alliance captain slots. Beyond that though, that's what scouting is for. We are inclined to just play our best and not try to game the system. I would encourage others to do the same. If everybody did that, it would be a better reflection of the relative performance of the teams.

Perhaps the system will be tweaked for next year. Who knows. I don't expect any changes for the remainder of the 2010 season.

(PS: I am out of the country on business and couldn't take my computer. Thank God for computers in the hotel lobby!)
