The SIM Silks Tournament -- Voting Thread

[Dan Kauffman]

I decided a fresh thread would be best.

I was asked about the methodology behind the formation of the brackets, so I will do my best to explain how they are being set up. First, here are the 121 players whose silks were nominated, along with the number of times they were nominated:

Ali Hedgestone 7

The next thing that has to be done is to assign every player an overall seed, from No. 1 to No. 121. These seeds are based on the number of nominations a player received. Because Ali Hedgestone is the only player to receive 7 nominations, she automatically is the top overall seed ...

1. Ali Hedgestone

Two players, Danny Derby and Anna Leroux, received 6 nominations. One of them will be the No. 2 overall seed and one the No. 3 overall seed. To break the tie, I am using the random order generator found here:

Random Order Generator

The randomizer ordered Danny first and Anna second. Therefore ...

2. Danny Derby
3. Anna Leroux

Three players (Fanta Arcadia, Friedrich Barbarossa and Bryan Doolittle) tied with 5 nominations each. I put each of them into the random order generator, and it ordered them ...

4. Friedrich Barbarossa
5. Bryan Doolittle
6. Fanta Arcadia

I continued to break nomination ties for those with 4 nominations, those with three, those with two, and finally those with 1 (the majority of the list). When it was all said and done, here was the order:

OVERALL SEEDS
1. Ali Hedgestone 7
2. Danny Derby 6
3. Anna Leroux 6
4. Friedrich Barbarossa 5
5. Bryan Doolittle 5

All that's left is to place the players into the bracket, which consists of eight different regions made up of regional seeds from 1-16. The tournament is balanced in such a way that, if all the higher seeds win every time, all eight top regional seeds will advance to the quarterfinals so that the No. 1 overall seed will face the No. 8 overall seed, No. 2 will face No. 7, No. 3 will face No. 6 and No. 4 will face No. 5. (The semis would be No. 1 vs No. 4 and No. 2 vs. No. 3, and the final would be No. 1 vs. No. 2.) Of course, this tournament will not unfold like that, because upsets will happen (I mean, every regional seed from No. 6 to No. 16 was determined by random draw!).

Anyway, the unfilled bracket looks like this (brackets will be named for each top regional seed) ... The first number is the overall seed, the second number is the regional seed:

Some people got really unlucky with the draw, and silks that I believe are Sweet 16-worthy are going to be gone quickly. Some tough calls.

The silks shown for Joseph Depaulo actually belong to Josie De Paulo. Since only three have voted, maybe see if those three wish to stick to their vote or change it once Joseph's silks are in place?

STORMY PEAK AND DAN CHARTIER: PLEASE NOTE THIS POST!!!

The silks are now correct above. I'm not sure if I will change my vote yet. Please let me know if your votes change.

Once again, apologies. This contest is keeping me humble.

(I also sent PMs to Stormy and Dan.)

[Dan Kauffman]

Geez that change made that matchup brutal. Tough call.

I'm switching my vote to Depaulo.

[Dan Chartier]

I am going to stay with my choice.


Thanks for doing this contest.

Dan, I feel bad for you....you are putting in so much work, and have hit a few snags. It's a big contest, lots of names, and links to look up and post. Kudos, and thanks for all your hard work in doing this, it's a fun contest (at least from the player's side of it. )
