how would a melody describe itself when asked?

ace | intp | they/she/him | [29]

Was once kindly described as the smoke that rolls out of the barrel of a gun just after it's been fired

Alright this nonsense has to stop

So you see this

This is a tournament bracket. We set it up like this for a *reason.*

See the seeds on the side represent who is believed to be most likely to win the event as a whole. If you look closely you’ll see that it is set up so that people with a high seed are up against people with a low seed. You’ll also see that this is set up so that the 4 highest seeds are in different brackets from eachother.

The reason why this is done is so that we don’t have what should be grand finals matchups in round 1. We also do this so low seeds don’t just coast through the competition and make it to grand finals when they don’t actually deserve to be there, they just had no real competition to overcome.

As an added bonus to doing this, bracketing allows for very clear upsets. If you set up the bracket like this everyone knows who your top seeds are meant to be even if you don’t directly state it. So when seed 16 somehow beats seed 1 it really means something.

I know that it’s easier to just throw names on a list in no particular order and be done with, but I urge you to take some time to think about who is most likely to win whatever sexyman pole you’re doing and seed the bracket accordingly.
