Warrior General Games

Thanks.... and good luck to you too.. i'm sure we aren't finished yet... could meet again in the semi's.....

"Elk never die. We just go to Hell and regroup!"

i'm gonna say:

for the second seed, 4 12-4 teams:
- elk, triforce, bucks, lions
- elk and triforce best records inside of that group (2-1)
- elk most points for
- elk 2nd seed

for the third seed, 3 12-4 teams:
- triforce, bucks, lions
- all teams here are 1-1 verse each other
- bucks most points for (bucks=877, triforce=838, lions=767)
- bucks get the 3rd seed

for the 4th seed, 2 12-4 teams:
- triforce gets 4th for head-to-head

would the two teams with the best record between the 4 teams ( elk and triforce) not just get the #2,#3 slots with the tie break currently going to the elk. then the #4,#5 going down to the teams with the next best record between the teams,

rather than when when the #2 slot has been decided the #3 team going back into the pot with the other 2 teams and the tie breaks starting all over again. makes a mockery of the 1st tie break being between all the tied teams

"your way" makes mores sense in my opinion.... but i think it works "my way" based on the state of the current standings.

edit: i just think the "logic" is programmed to calculate tiebreaks for one seed at at a time (the code is probably minimally more simple)

not so sure about that , the current standings
Elk - 3-1
Bucks - 2-2
Triforce 2-1 ( until all teams have played the same games, wins count)
Lions - 2-2
Freedom 0-3

The three tied teams are in order of points scored as you have put above, it doesnt need to come down to head to head between the lions and triforce as they are broken by points scored.

therefore the teams are arranged by my way of doing it, however if the triforce win then they will have a 3-1 and will tie break with the elk , giving a probable

BDM
elk
triforce
bucks
lions
freedom
wombats
blitzers

if they lose then they drop to 11-5 and a probable tie with the wombats ( which they lost by one point to and hence the tie break) giving

BDM
elk
bucks
lions
freedom
wombats
triforce
blitzers

we will have to wait and see, but i am sure this is it

that makes sense too.

edit: actually, in your scenario, the lions would be 4 and the bucks 5, because the lions have head-to-head in a two team tiebreak.

its bloody confusing i tell ya

that would be if after the first tie break the tie breaks jumped back to the start

i.e. 1st tie break splits elk/triforce from bucks/lions. then they could either be split again by points scored ( 2nd tie break) which is used above.

or be split by reverting to the head to head which would give a completely different scenario ( if triforce beat freedom) of

BDM
Triforce
Fighting Elk
Lions
Bucks
Freedom
wombats
blitzers

however, i am sticking with my scenario above

Confused , you will be , on this weeks episode of ............GLB

I'm just pleased that none of the Zeta playoff teams will have a sub .500 record. Early in the season it appeared our 7th and 8th spots were both going to qualify with a losing record.

Thank you to the Cypriot Freedom and British Blitzers for turning that mess around. Now Alpha can't lay claim to the title of "better conference" until the championship game has been decided.

EE-AA-Zeta has two CPU teams and neither is bottom of the table.

Could be losing a few zeta teams this year...
