The top 16 teams remain in World League, the bottom 16 teams get demoted. If a playoff team in the World League decides to reset their team and move to a lower level, priority will be given to the 9th place team in their conference. If that team does not wish to stay in the World League, priority is then given to the highest seeded non-playoff team.
Any team wishing to remain in the World League as a result of a team resetting MUST submit a Support ticket requesting to do so. Failure to do so will result in the spot being awarded to the highest seeded non-playoff team that did submit a Support ticket.
Added for clarification 1/22/2013 - once we are looking at teams past the 9th place team in the demoting team's conference we will use the following criteria:
1) Order of finish in their conference
2) W-L record
3) Points allowed
Example:
Two teams finished 10th place in their respective conferences, one team went 8-8 while the other team went 7-9. The spot would go to the 8-8 team. If the teams were both 8-8 then it would go to the team that had given up the fewest points in the previous regular season.
