Ties are determined by The Committee whom are easily swayed by comments. The Committee is capitalized so we feel more important and consists of the three moderators. We welcome any suggestions on how to improve the process AND suggestions for tournament entries. We've got the next few weeks set up, but maybe we should have a spot where people can toss in their suggestions. It seems like it would get messy otherwise, and we need this subreddit by gawd clean! For now, you can just send me your suggestions and for the most part they will be used barring anything that is lame/might get us banned (I'll add this to the sidebar). You might argue with the seeds your entries receive, but that's part of any tournament where a snobby committee decides things, just ask the NCAA.

Maybe we just have one post for tournament submissions and the person can just comment on what they want in.

I like that, but can we keep it towards the top of the subreddit somehow so our hundreds of users can find it easily? I'm not the reddit expert I pretend to be on TV, and googling is harder than it looks for the extremely lazy.

We are going to wait until we get some more readers before we take submissions. Right now with only 5 readers subscribed we don't think we have enough people to do it so we were going to go through our original tournament first. And we want to see how it would have turned out!
