A, I guess. I'm sick and my head's swimming so I can't actually understand them.
You're an idiot then. What's tough to understand here?
We start with 24 networks. We have 8 showdows with 3 networks in each showdown. The network with the least votes is eliminated. That will leave us with 16 networks. Then we have 8 showdowns again, heads-up. The winner moves on, the loser doesn't. That will leave us with 8 networks. 4 showdowns...

Sounds reasonable. I know one of the ways I'm going to vote is by taking the schedule and planning which shows I'm watching live, which ones I'm watching on DVR and then having some quantifiable metrics to justify a vote. Obviously if the numbers atre close I still have the choice to vote for one network or the other based off 1-2 shows that I just adore. This should be a fun process.
I personally will choose A because I don't like only one person getting a bye into the second round while 11 people are eliminated. I'd rather 2 people get a bye and only 7 are eliminated at that portion.
I sat there trying to break down the 2 and 3 way tournament brackets and picture them in my head, do the math on 16 vs 12, and figure out the "1 bye and 11 eliminations" vs "2 byes and 7 eliminations" you seemed to be suggesting we were voting on. I freely admitted it was MY problem that I was confused because my head wasn't in it.
My head started pounding this morning when I tried to figure out how much time I could oversleep at 7:45 AM if I had to at work by 9:30 or so. I've been screwing up the math on the network counts all day. Its just been a bad day for me.
Or don't do either. If you can't find an image you like at either than don't force it. Just give me something you like and which will look good on the board.

And you wonder why people think you have no sense of humor. I'm kidding. Idiot's as close as I get to saying I love you man.
And 2 networks are going to essentially get a bye by facing the "24th Network" so they'd both have inflated counts and likely would grab the #1 and #2 spots. Giving them the best seed after already getting a big break in facing the dummy network.
At least presumably. It would probably be embarrassing if someone lost to the dummy network, but not impossible.

First rule of business is to get Tex Shark and anybody else not using the Eastern Time Zone schedule on track. Primetime starts at eight, muthafuckaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas!
Huh, I didn't even notice that about Shark's schedule. Weirdo.
Again, since I never managed to figure out the "MK board" I took it upon myself to come up with a schedule grid. And I'm happy to do it for everyone else. I did it for Shark's just because. So if you want, just let me know. Its color coded!

Blue = Comedy, Yellow = Drama, Orange = Reality. I may have screwed up on a few because honestly, I've never heard of/watched a second of half of your lineup.
Feel free to use your own of course. I just did it because I wanted to see how easily it would be do to put someone's schedule together and yours was the only one I saw available.

I am totally just voting based on whose avatar I like best. ;D
And as for my lineup I posted in the other thread (also now in my sig), my colors are there to differentiate lengths of shows rather than show content.
Just to be different, and all.
Also, for the record, I am completely in favor of random seeding, throughout. Maybe the only "rule" being that the 2 survivors of the first round cannot go head-to-head in the second round?
Unless, of course, you change your minds and prefer m-dad's and my concise 3-round format.
What's the logic of color coding based on length when length is easily identifiable from the graph? Its just redundant, man! My system allows a quick look at the schedule to get a sense of the tone of the network! Shark's heavy on the reality, Eric's pretty balanced but with only 1 night of comedy, I'm heavy on the drama with no reality, etc. SEE!?!
