    Ok you guys do this:
    Rank people from first to last. People who didn't participate get a lower rank since they didnt particpate, and I guess 1 and 3 go at it and 2 and 4 and so on. Like the idea [​IMG]

    I've kind of changed my mind on the rankings thing. There's too many people who haven't battled before and I don't want to punish/reward people unfairly, because they're an unknown. I think we should just do it random and hopefully the matchups turn out pretty well.

    What does everyone else think?

    There are only two competitors that we havn't seen before. They are AznxBaller and Cpaul#3Dwade. I say that we rank the 14 competitors that have rapped before then have AznxBaller and Cpaul face in the first round. So it would look like this.

    1 vs. 14
    2 vs. 13
    3 vs. 12
    4 vs. 11
    5 vs. 10
    6 vs. 9
    7 vs. 8
    AznxBaller vs. Cpaul#3Dwade


    What do you guys think?

    We'll see.

    When is this going to start officially?

    Also I thought it would be cool to have awards as well, like MVP, MIP, First Team , etc

    No Iggy. 1 against 3, 2 and 4, 3 and 5. Do it like that.

    I'm waiting for that last competitor, before asking everyone about times.

    That's a cool idea about the awards. We could ask the judges to vote on that, too.

    ?

    So pretty much every guy has to battle twice with the exception of 1 and 2 in the first round?

    I think this would be a good idea. Have the judges rank the 14 competitors (excluding Azn X and CP) based on the last tourney 1-14. However, this is assuming that the last person who officially joins is someone we've already seen battle.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">

    </div>

    Why would you wanna do 1 vs. 3, 2 vs 4 in the first round? And you put 3 against 5...you want people to battle two different people in the first round?

    I guess this wont work out good. How about just randomly pick? [​IMG]

    Yeah, thats the only logical way I could think of, without having to do wildcards and what not. But if the last person is someone who hasnt competed then I think we could just put him somewhere in the 14 randomly.

    Thats just the order based on last tourney, based on how far you got and how bad you lost by when you went out.

    Maybe just do it randomly, like number ping pong balls in a hat, or pieces of paper.

    Or just do the 1 vs. 14, 2 vs. 13, 3 vs. 12, etc.

    I like this way, maybe we should vote on the methods of ranking?just an idea.
    Also what happens if the last person isnt someone youve seen before?

    Maybe we should do it by region like Canada, New York, Florida, etc. Like NCAA brackets have someone representing each area in the final four.

    ^ We were thinking of doing a regional one, but some places are going to have more competitors than others, the talent won't be evenly spread, and its more difficult to organize.

    For rankings, I was going to have the judges rank all the competitors who aren't new. Then I'd average their results and create the brackets accordingly.
