I noticed that. OTOH, W-L-T is back as the primary method of ranking. (And then there's the extra RPs...)

Usually, we go W-L-T at 2-0-1, then add on ranking points for just the top 15 or 16 teams. (Last year, of course, was an exception.) I'm thinking there are a few ways to go here.

1) W-L-T, + standard rank points for the teams that seed high enough to make elims on their own if the cards line up.
2) RP total, + standard rank points.
3) District Ranking.
4) W-L-T, + District Ranking.
5) RP total, + District Ranking.

Of the 5, I'm leaning towards #5, as it gives out the most total points and is the easiest to calculate. OTOH, it'll really bias towards districts and smaller events with their 12+ matches/team. My second option would be #2, due to it being more standard.
