Somebody suggested it earlier about some using the system used in tennis i think..... so i would say maybe up until u have 128 or 256 teams left its random n once u reach that point its based on ranking..... i think this could possibly work

Jenny, your roster is a prototype on how you play D4 in Canada. Low salaries, good gamehape and save your money. Great job girl. But raise all your ticket prices before Tuesday, you're 6-0 so the fans will pay far more for all 4 levels. And build that arena more, you'll need it for D3.

Random Schedule Generator! It may produce some early naismith vs naismith teams. It could allow some bot teams to go reasonably far. It generates games where division III teams hoping to make noise hit a naismith team in the fourth round, but in the end it is the best. It provides some more entertainment and unpredictability that is great for the tournament. Sure division III teams face top tier teams, but thats when magical moments like (38947038) happen. :) I like this set up and I doubt we will see anything different in the near or far future so, get used to it :)
I agree that I like it how it is. I like the idea of not being able to plan your entire season's strategy right at the outset. I also like the idea of giving div3 and div4 more potential to make deep runs into the tournament, I was able to make a deep run as a Div3 team largely based on a lucky draw, and that was one of the more exciting moments I've had in this game. I believe last year, people also stated they enjoyed watching div3 and div4 teams go deep. Naismith teams have it good enough, don't worry about being fair to us.
That said, even if they do set up seeding, I think upsets are always going to happen. This week I felt I had 2 must-win games in the league, and lost not being able to put up a good enough team out there for the tournament. Would I have liked to have faced a bot this week? Sure. But this was also a good challenge that I learned from.

Yea I agree with you on that, but I don't think being hard on him will help this situation. Let's just hope he listens.
