 * I have two ad groups being used in the same sidebar. One for tournaments, the
   other for site sponsors. Both are set to BLOCK, both with a padding of two pixels.
 * The top block (tournaments) have ads that are 160 wide by 100 tall. The bottom
   block (site sponsors) are 160 wide by 80 tall.
 * My question is that the top group seems to have large padding while the bottom
   block seems very close to each other. The padding (or margin) seems to be different.
 * Any ideas?

 * You may be missing a closing tag somewhere, a missing `</div>` or something.
   
   That would explain why margins behave differently in similar locations.

 * You mean somewhere else on my page? Because these margins are within the ad blocks
   themselves, and I haven’t touched the plugin code whatsoever. I would think that
   the margins within the plugin code would be the same.
 * Can you look at my right sidebar to see what I mean?

 * Yea someplace above the adverts (or in code parsed before the adverts). A single
   missing `</div>` (or similar tag) can screw up the layout of an entire website
   if you’re unlucky.
 * Of-course if the pages are different and apply different CSS for things that 
   may cause a mismatch also.
 * Either of these things would be my focus at first to determine what’s going on.
