How were the byes and the seeds decided? Randomly picked?

Yes, I entered in each person's name and had the website randomly determine the placing. You can mess around with the site and see for yourself how it functions, if you'd like.
 
I don't like the idea of voting out the bottom 4. Given that, the only idea I could come up with that didn't include voting out the bottom 4 and also didn't include byes was having 3 brackets of 4 teams in single-elimination format and then having the bracket winners all competed each other. Not perfect, but everyone would get at least one head-to-head matchup and nobody would have any byes.
 
How about making a two group with 6 random teams, then let all the people to vote for the first 4 teams in each group, then make a quarter finals tournament with those 8 teams remaining?

If I'd be voted out in the group stage, I would still feel better than the current format.

Sounds overly complicated. If we're going to vote people off the island, I'd rather just do the bottom 4 and keep it simple.

Honestly, I don't see what the big deal is about a bye. If you think your team can win, then what does it matter if another team gets a head start on you?
 
@Spycam just do it the way you originally did. People will freak out either way. I'm assuming you chose the people with byes randomly? If so that's fair.

Everything was randomized by the website. I think we can all agree that there is no perfect way to do this, but even if this isn't you #1 preferred option, you have to admit it's one of the better ones. I just don't understand why they bye's are causing such a stir. If you got a bye, then get knocked out immediately, is it really any better than getting knocked out in the first round? Both parties would have won 0 rounds.
 
I'm okay proceeding as is as long as we're all okay with it. I was simply unhappy with the way it was decided.
