Two steps ahead. I am always two steps ahead. This has been the greatest social experiment I've come to know. Certainly the greatest social experiment of my entire life. It's... alluring. It's compelling. It's gripping. To bear witness, to observe all these unwell, unbalanced, disoriented beings roam the internet in search of stories. In search of ideas, of conflict, of rivalries, where people develop a distinctive desire for direct engagement. Where people feel involved with the stories, and therefore become product of influence. Thirsty for distraction from time unspent, from lackluster livestyles. Spoiling their minds while stimulating them at the exact same time. It's brilliant. But it's also dangerous. It's dangerous. I feel as if my life has been positioned to where I am monitoring ants on an ant farm. One follows another follows another follows another. It's mesmerizing. It's enthralling, it's spellbinding. Just look at all these consumers. All of these lost and bored people. Consuming anything that they're told to consume. I am the villain. But I make myself one. And people will consume these stories year after year after year. Stories that, stories that shock, that confuse. Stories that are deliberately made to blur the boundaries between fact and fiction. Stories that permeate, infect, and linger in the minds of the ants. Influence the ants. Brainwash the ants. You are the ant. I woke up this morning to money deposited into my account. For simply not doing something. For simply not going through... with something. People are the most fucked up creatures on this planet. And you will continue to consume. And I'll continue to be two steps ahead. Today, I thought it would be a splendid idea to go out and get some food and film it for you. Gee, are you surprised? Have you forgotten the story? Are you not paying attention? After all, you're here to consume, are you not?
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.
