Warrior General Games

Anyone else think it is weird that Gothenburg plays Cleveland instead of Dresden?

Our (Gothenburg) record is identical to Palermo's, but Palermo beat us. Yet we received the higher seed drawing Cleveland instead of the more highly ranked Dresden Dragons.

Total points scored is the first tie breaker.

It's a 4 way tie, you're completely ignoring the effect of two other teams tying for the same record. First tiebreaker is head to head record among the 4 teams.

Barcelona: 3-0
Gothenburg: 1-2
Palermo: 1-2
TUPELO: 1-2

Barcelona gets the 5 seed. Then you go to points scored among the other 3.

Gothenburg: 403
Palermo: 304
TUPELO: 260
