At GTR East, 14 points was the difference between the #8 Seed and the #34 seed. In years past, 2 QP's don't come close to swinging things that much.

Further, at GTR Central, teams playing with 1114 seeded on average 18.6 while teams that did not get to play with 1114 seeded on average 25.2

I think your alliance partners have a much larger impact this year than ever before.
