I am looking to seed, and that would have to be based on win% in Hacienda - probably favours those who play more 2player games, but this is a 2player tournament. |

scoot, I think that makes you 2nd seed, would you rather be seeded lower, I swap with you if you want? |

I think any seeding is better than no seeding, however win % isn't a good reflection of ability. I used it for the first tourney I ran but few of the high % players are actually high skill. Consider using the overall ranking table from my tournaments ( in a thread here somewhere). |

I wont do too much work on the seeding as the winner has to beat the best of the rest anyway, however, I'll take into account the most recent 2pl leagues, the last deathmatch and Kanga's ratings.
Scoot will be an interesting one to seed as he's played so many games in a short space of time.
Mooka, you are in, still a few spots left. |

Still room for 2 more. If no more takers, I will post the draw in about 14 hours and give the top 2 seeds byes.
I have worked out provisional seedings. I have added win%, Kanga rating and given 10 points for each round won in the last deathmatch. I looked at the 2 player league and it was not easy to factor which league, and last league played - and the seeding below seems OK. Last time, the seeds didnt do very well, so it maybe better to not be seeded .
Yahkeh did well in the last deathmatch I recall, and the seeds will want to avoid Scoot, who is unseeded as he has no rating in Kanga's last list but a really good win%.
The only manual adjustment was to swap myself and IBX - it is only fair that IBX should be top seed as he is the current champion.
Provisional seedings:
1 IBX
2 Powermorph
3 Kanga
4 almondralf
5 andyp
6 Total_Twit
7 Brennus
8 GamesOnTheBrain
9 Djura
10 tphon
11 marcx
12 Early_10
13 Dobinator
14 smlait
15 klingone
16 Inferno
