The following was true through last year's tourny. If there's been a
change in policy, I haven't heard about it.
Relative seeding is not dependent on PWR or any other rating system. The
only "promise" the NC$$ has ever made concerning seeding is that the four
byes will come from the appropriate region (that is, they won't seed a
western team as #1 or #2 East, even if more than 2 of the top 4 teams are
from the West).
As far as choosing the actual seeds goes, the NC$$ is free to do anything
it wants.
