[updated:LAST EDITED ON Aug-19-04 AT 01:05 AM (GMT)]It is interesting to note that the 8 players (4 from each tier) are among the highest tiers within the group.
2 players are (-8) and 2 are (0) for higher tier semi final and all 4 players are (+24) from mid tier semi final.
Higher level players have advantages in the matches.(with exceptions of course)
