BT1 WILDCARD VOTING

[Jonathan Meer]

That's not what I was saying, I was saying that it makes more sense, IC, to take back someone who was already in the tournament and who was popular with the 'crowd' (had close voting).

Dun' give a shit what makes more sense IC.

I think it's kind of stupid that someone who didn't even participate in the initial rounds, the sign-ups, or anything related to the tournament at all can get bumped into the semi-finals and have a really good shot at winning when the rest of us had to work for it in some fashion.

But whatevs. If that's how this is going to work, that's how it's going to work.

The wildcard will have to beat two of the best writers in the tournament to win. They will have to go undefeated.

No matter how we do this, there will be a discrepancy. If the wildcard was selected only from those people who participated but were disqualified, then that person, upon winning the tournament, would have one loss. Their opponent, upon losing the tournament, would also have one loss. That too, is stupid.

There's three of us, give one of us a bye, the other two fight, and then the winner fights the guy who had a bye. The bye would be determined by random chance (one of those randomizers?). I also wouldn't be against a three way final.

A bye into the final would be fucking stupid.
