Re: paper: MARC 2010 Rule Changes
In the other MARC thread, Steve said the decision was made to stay with the standard seeding. W-T-L does not accurately rank teams any better than cooperition points. A 12-10 win should count more than a 2-0 win. The concern was whether to tweak the coopertition points or not, to avoid 6v0; make a 6-3 win better than a 0-22 loss. Other schemes could make 6v0 less beneficial, but not remove the advantage entirely; under certain situations it would always be better score for the opponents regardless of the seeding scheme. So it was decided to leave things as they were, after Team Update 16.
