So the seedings for regionals this weekend are up...

To tell you the truth I don't really understand them. Of course Zero deserves to be number 1, but my confusion comes with BAT, Machine and Madcow.

To tell you the truth I don't really understand them. Of course Zero deserves to be number 1, but my confusion comes with BAT, Machine and Madcow.
Observations
- BAT has an RRI of 2518, with a 1-2 record against Madcow, and a 1-0 record against Machine
- Machine has an RRI of 2545, with an 0-0 record against Madcow, and an 0-1 record against BAT
- Madcow has an RRI of 2520, with a 2-1 record against BAT, and an 0-0 record against Machine.
I guess what I'm wondering is, why isn't Madcow seeded second, BAT seeded third, and Machine seeded fourth. Is RRI that important?? Madcow has beaten BAT twice and has a higher RRI than them. Machine has lost to BAT but has a higher RRI than them. So, are they trying to say that BAT deserves the two seed because they have proven that they can beat both Machine and Madcow? If that is so, why isn't Madcow seeded third, they've proven they can beat BAT and Machine hasn't proven that they can't beat either.
If I were to switch it around at all I would make BAT the two seed, Madcow the three seed and Machine the four seed. Thoughts?

Okay so after looking at things a little more it looks like BAT beat Madcow earlier in the season and they also beat Machine at CHC. BUT machine finished higher than BAT at CHC. So i can see how BAT may have climbed up there and since Madcow and Machine have never played each other i can see how they would put Machine in front of Madcow.
I personally think that seedings should be based upon how CHC ended but when the whole season is taken into account i guess they cannot do that. What do you do? We are just going to have to beat a couple of teams a lot sooner than we thought.
