Warrior General Games

Playoffs are each division winner and 1 wild card, right?

What are the tiebreakers for divisional winner and wild card winner? If "Ladder rank" is one of them, teams should probably find out now so they know the ladder games could affect tiebreakers.

Team matchup winner, wins, ties, points allowed, points for.

Ladder games don't count for league playoffs.

Division winners looks at everyone in the division, then selects the winner. Wild card looks at everyone in the league, then picks the highest team that didn't win their division.

It does not arbitrarily remove teams from the league rankings. The only thing that would accomplish is, in rare instances, one team would win a tie breaker with a smaller scope than they would in a larger scope. I don't see the benefit of narrowing the scope, besides to make one team feel better and for the better wild card choice to miss the playoffs. I'm just not convinced changing it is for the better.

Division winning tie breakers should go

Total Wins
Division Wins
Team Matchup Winner
Points Allowed
Points For

imo.

Wait only 4 teams make the playoffs?

Does matchup winner mean the numbers in the matchup page or the result when both played each other? If its supposed to be the ladder then its not working

Then it doesnt work. In the division of the Team i GM there Used to be us and Baller Squad 2-1. we beat them but we were still second behind them!

So this doesn't seem to work as expected. Looking at Wolverine League, Beta Division: http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/league/15

1st Place: Chicago Bruins
10-4 record
1-1 H2H
119 Points Allowed
2nd Place: Galactic Heroes
10-4 record
1-1 H2H
117 Points Allowed

So based on what I know of GLB1 tiebreakers, Galactic Heroes should have been the #1 seed. So what IS the tiebreaker?
Some other statistics:
Bruins:
4-2 Division record
Ranked #4 Points Allowed
Ranked #2 Points Scored
252 Points scored
Higher ladder rank

Galactic Heroes:
4-2 Division record
Ranked #3 Points Allowed
Ranked #6 Points Scored
179 Points Scored
Lower ladder rank

Anyone got any idea how the tiebreakers really work?

I also see Tiger League:

1st Place: Warsaw Wrath
7-6-1 record
1-1 H2H
162 Points Allowed
(higher ladder rank)

2nd Place: Blue Mountain State
7-6-1 record
1-1 H2H
142 Points Allowed

It has to have changed because we switched spots with the division winner (based on GLB1) and are playing the #2 seed.

Whoops, just say Nibs post.

Just a small correction though, Heroes would be the #3 seed, not #1, and Bruins the WC #4 seed.

Niboris was already Talking bout you guys...im kinda pissed about that shit as i would have prefered playing the Team i was supposed to Play, but oh well. Just some transparency on this would be nice, especially since Not Even the fckin superdupermegabrain, Bort himself, doesnt know how it works^^

right - I meant #1 in the division, not #1 seed. My mistake.

Yeah, no big deal. Just didn't want other people arguing or being confused over it or anything
