    Nice work Chutney! But I've only got one minor issue (sorry for being a downer), but shouldn't Air Fresh be ranked higher than MrJ? Because he won in the battle. Again, it's just a minor problem, and it's not such a big deal. Anyways, props on the work!

    Damn I just noticed that MrJ is going to get a cakewalk to the championship again. He always gets lucky with these brackets.

    That is weird, MrJ has beaten Umair and VC, yet me and Chutney are ranked below him and we both beat him.

    I'm cool with it, but it doesn't really make sense.

    When do we start?

    You'll have to ask the other judges for that. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a whole lot of reasons, but here's a few:

    -they probably put more weight in the tournament
    -MrJ had some SAT stuff to do near the end of his battle with AF
    -regardless of his competition, they think highly of his style, content

    I'm not trying to put words in their mouths, so don't take that as their reasoning. All I can say is that, outside of Karma, the top 4 was very close. Me and Air Fresh were seperated by decimal points.

    I'm pumped about matching up with Iggy. I got a lot of stuff to use.

    When are the actual battles going to start?

    They aren't that ridicolous. They'll do just fine. Not everyone is going to agree but I think everything outside of the top 4 is perfect. And plus, this system is better than last year's, at least we have rankings. Good job judges.

    You are facing Karma, Umair is facing S.Livingston, and I'm facing Iggy. You read it wrong.

    So #13 faces an unranked and #12 faces the #1. That makes a whole lotta sense. Whatever though.

    True that doesn't make sense.

    That was a problem I had and if you guys could think of a better solution, I'd gladly go for it. We have one extra unranked battler who doesn't have another unranked to face.

    So what do we do? I gave him the last ranked guy. Its unfair to the people ranked ahead, but I put it so the winner of that battle faces the winner of 1st seed's battle. Its still a bit unfair, but I couldn't think of any alternatives. Any ideas?

    I think Umair should have to battle Umair since he was the last person ranked. Just like the first seed always plays the 8th seed in the first round of the playoffs right?

    Give Karma or Mr.J the bye. And then rank those guys below Umair, 13-16. Just pick their names out of a hat. That would be fair.
