I just heard from Rogue, and since no one else volunteered, he was willing to appoint me commissioner/thread starter. Since we have issues with tiebrakers, I think a common consensus is with the Spartak suggested tiebrakers:

As for the tiebreaker, maybe the combined score of ALL the playoff games that weekend. With the winner the closest without going over, and if both go over, its the closest.
Secondary tiebreaker could be highest scoring team that weekeend....

As Commissioner, I will make the executive decision on the tiebrakers.
First Tiebraker: Total points of all games played on the weekend. Weeks one and two have four games (eight teams) being played. All points of all teams playing is the first number.
Second Tiebraker: Highest scoring team of the weekend. Again, you have eight teams to choose from in weeks one and two.
Third Tiebraker: Lowest scoring team of the weekend.
Unless we run into problems, these will be the tiebrakers for the for two weekends. Teams will play head to head 1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, etc. in a single elimination bracket formula. (Clarification on opponents in week two will follow.)
If you do not make your picks in time, you will be automatically eliminated. The thread will lock the morning of the first playoff game. (Keep in mind, morning starts at 12:01 am - don't complain if Rogue locks the thread "too early" for you.)
Any questions? Good. Let's start picking.
