Now that you ranked players based on kills/deaths, how do you plan to place these in the various leagues. I suppose I could offer an idea and will make it on a separate post Ashtar.


Simple, four groups A B C D.
Positions 1-4 placed at random in the four groups.
Then position 5-8 again at random in the four groups. And so on...

And in case you wonder, I am going to do the seeding with a good old d4 as soon as I find some time.
But if someone does not trust me, he can offer to do the random seed by himself and post the result here,
I would be happy to spare some time


Ashtar, its your deal and do what you like but it really is a better idea to spread the seeds don't you think? If you are going to place everyone into groups at random, couldn't you have just done the same thing without ranking anyone? You could have just put the 32 who signed up randomly into groups as you suggest here without dividing kills by deaths. See my other post. The ranked seeds are spread out as they should be.


I fear we do not understand each other well my friend. Read my post. I am not planning to place everyone into groups at random.

I am going to divide the 32 players in 8 pools according to their ranking (1-4 in the first pool, 5-8 in the second, and so on...) and then
I will form the 4 groups each with one pilot from every pool.
Your proposed seeding follows exactly the same procedure, but with a deterministic way to assign players from pools to groups. I just want to do it random, since your deterministic procedure is a bit arbitrary. For instance, #1 is ending up in the same group with #8 and #9, it could seem ok, but considering the first two pilots are going to proceed to the final, maybe he should prefer to be grouped with #5 and #12. Or maybe not, I could not decide, so I will go for random inside the eight pools.
