The odds for that happening were 3.9%, which is 41% greater than rolling snake eyes or box cars (i.e. 2.8%).
My point is , where is the blind draw? Never have we entered aqualifier without a blind draw!
Never? You've been around for a fairly long time - how can you be so sure? SoCal ASA and PGF have been good about holding public draws for SoCal qualifiers. I don't see how you could be so sure about other sanctions and/or TD's.
... We play at noon vs. another socal team. We win that winner of socal, win that another all socal branch. Just a little weird for me. We need blindcdraws at all these events period! Can't disagree with that I hope! Someone will though haha!
The odds of 4 SoCal teams being drawn at that time was 2.7%, which is slightly less than rolling snake eyes. However, that was just 1 of 15 groups of 4 and the odds of 4 SoCal teams being drawn together like that somewhere within the brackets was much greater - possibly 40-50%.
It is normal to have streaks within a series of outcomes. That's what keeps betting strategies (e.g. doubling down after a loss ) from working because people don't have big enough bankrolls to survive naturally occurring losing streaks. I don't see any compelling evidence the draw wasn't done randomly.
