No one knows what the tie breaking formula is now.

Are recent Flex purchases somewhere in the formula now?

Personally I would think it's points total in both games (team that scored the most points overall in the two games would win the tiebreaker). Or at least it should be.

Well in the NFL it's (note I've removed all that don't apply due to GLBs scheduling method / league structure):

1) Head-to-head
2) Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference
3) Strength of victory. (compares the average win % of the opponents they beaten)
4) Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed
5) Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed
6) Best net points in all games
7) Best net touchdowns in all games
8) Coin toss



granted... this isn't the NFL... but taking to point totals in each head to head game to determine the most overall points is never even considered in the NFL... and the NFL pretty much considers everything... (even the near impossible event of 1-7 being the same)

Yeah, I've actually seen it get to #6 to determine who made the playoffs before but I think the NFL also schedules differently than we do as well and I was looking for a real simple solution to the tie. I mean, we already know they played each other twice and split the games... and they have the same record as well (hence the tiebreaker necessity)... so rather than trying to get real crazy, combining the total points scored in the two H2H games and subtracting the points allowed... you get a quick tie breaker result. Now, should THAT end up as a tie... I like the Coin Toss option. Just one thing... who calls it?

If you win the coin toss, can you defer?

Why would you defer to someone else? They'll just pick another team!
How about 10 pace and it's the quickest to the draw.
