[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1041828, member: 55747"] The difference between that case and this one is that for the SR finals, you generally had the best team reaching the final anyway, usually after beating the second-best in the semis/quarters, so the final was the best against the 3/4/5th. I don't have a problem with that in the sense that eventually the best team actually won. I for one don't give a **** if the fifth is better than the supposed second. The system, by design, was supposed to find the best, not a pecking order of all teams, and in doing that, it was successful. With this years system, you have a team that could beat any of the finalists 9 out of 10 times. It's not just the pecking order that is ruined here. [/QUOTE]
