Re: Second Chance Bracket... ...A Crazy Idea...

I am not totally in favor of this idea. I think this Loser's Bracket could detract from the honor of going to Einstein, and try to replace it with something else. There cannot be anything that can replace the honor of going to Einstein.

As well, logistics. Figuring out where to get tired volunteers would be a hassle, plus you would have to figure out how and where to implement it. Putting it at the same time as Einstein would give it more prestige and honor, rivaling Einstein. I am not familiar with the time frame of the event, but this should not take place with Einstein.

And, the winner shouldn't be able to play the winner of Einstein. In my opinion, the loser's bracket winning team wouldn't have earned it.

As a small sideshow to Einstein, sure, great idea. But anything bigger than that, and I'm not sure.
