My first attempt at bullet posting - my intentions were to go much deeper on some of those points to explain the why,  but just wasting too much time with long posts on this thread recently.  I was also told by admin that I would be getting paid for driving engagement but they reneged on the offer.

[*]Tourney selection is a human process.   Not a computer process.  The NET simply provides data to be help people with subjective selections.   Once it comes down to the bubble there are so many ways to subjectively pick teams, and committees have went all over the place be it quality wins, bad losses.
[*]NET just groups information to help people subjectively make decisions.   It doesn't need to be that precise.   It just helps sort information to easily isolate the clear in's,   If you are on the bubble your good wins get scrubbed on the borders of quads anyway.
[*]NET will have a lot less strange teams once conference play is done.   There won't be many teams that you say hey that team should be Q1 not Q2, or in Q3, or vice versa.
[*]The biggest impact "Computers" have on the process is actually out of conference play.  OOC record as a whole by the conference, will certainly have a big impact on who gets in Q1 and Q2, and what conferences dominate in terms of numbers in.
[*]But we have had the OOC discussion a lot before.   It sucks that the only way to assess the best conferences is play in November and December, but since nobody plays each other after December how else can we do it?

Still failed at keeping length down, but got a lot of points out there in one post.
