I really don't care about my case cause I probably will stop BB in 2 or 3 seasons, or maybe sleep in D4 until the passion comes back.

But your answer shows that your proposal will reward luck more than merit... I don't see how it can be a real improvement to the actual system. I already see the result, no matter the size of the country, all 8 qualified teams would have had really easy draws (in order to have the best point average). Among these 8 teams, one or two will come from first division and destroy the other teams which have made it to the quarterfinals. Winner will then be the best one of the lucky teams... Yaaaay

And still, I can't support a system where undefeated teams can be eliminated. Makes no sense to me

Your second option is just the actual system of the national tournament. Difference is, defeated teams (which are most likely already eliminated) play against each other for a little money rather than a scrimmage.

First option is the one I understood at the beginning cause it's like the B3, and I already told why I don't see it being an improvement.

But it was just my two cents saying I like the idea but that it should be rearanged cause there are imho some weaknesses.

Edit : I made a calculation that was totally wrong lol

Well I guess that could work. Still find a bit weird to work with ranking and PA while the opposition can be soooo different between each team. But I have no problem with the idea of giving more money to small teams and making them play more competitive games

imo it's a brilliant idea and i would suggest to use here a system (that works in chess tournaments), called "swiss system"
