Ask any questions about the Tournament here. But be sure to read the Nominations thread first to see if your question is already answered first.

1.Will you give a list of all the coasters so I can see what mine was ranked? Or will you just show the top coaster?

2.Does this only happen in March? If so how long does it go on for?
Thanks!

Everyone will see the progress of the tournament.
Not sure how long it is going to take. The quicker we get nominations in, the quicker the first round will start.

Each poll will last three days each.


By the way, How was the seeding determined?

Most likely a tag of some sort, probably. The top 8 may get a tag too.

Just names. The NCAA bracket uses North, South, East, West.

Wouldn't it make more sense to pair coasters with something that is like it, unlike Templar's thread in Round 1?

^I though it had something to do with when it was built or who built it and stuff.

We will try to do better seeding next year. This is something I put together quite quickly before I went away for a couple days for spring break.

Lazor if you have a problem with me just say it and stop being a little loser who nitpicks at what I do and the things that concern me. Just remember yourself from before, you're still the same dingbat.

^I don't have a problem with you. I have a problem with your past but I could care less. I'm trying to move on from my past. As for the post, all I ment was that Templar was placed against a small not so great coaster. It was a giveaway for Templar.

Ya and that was the case of most other polls too. Maybe if you took the time to look you would see that.

^^Even in the NCAA Tourny, high seed vs low seed matches in the first round often aren't close either. You get occasional upsets, but that's the way it works out. The bracket make the matches tougher after every round.

Other than being rushed together, there's nothing wrong at all with the seeding.
