Yeah I know that, I'm just saying that may be too many teams making the playoffs.

But then again, the NFL allows 12/30.

The issue with adding more teams to the playoffs is two-fold.

1. You dilute the playoffs further and reduce the meaning of the regular season. This was a massive issue with GLB1. lolregularseason was the refrain. Here, good teams not making the playoffs is a good thing. Try harder regular season.

2. Adding teams adds another 3 days to the playoffs. The game's balanced around the idea of 30 games per season for skills, so you cannot add another ladder game, meaning seasons are now 3 days longer, and particularly for 3 days involving only the league championship games. That's 3 boring days for teams not playing championship games. This was a GLB1 problem. Between the playoffs, offseason, and preseason, you literally had around 24 days of downtime for teams not involved in the playoffs. That's brutal. GLB2 has reduced this to 4 days of offseason and preseason if you feel that ladder games keep non-playoff teams engaged.

Being in a league this stacked has definitely made the season very interesting and more enjoyable. Even though I would've liked to clinch a spot by now having it come down to last game of the season will be so much sweeter.

GO NIGHTMARES!!!

With the huge upset of RI by the direwolves, what are the tiebreakers now if RI can topple D'Hara?

No clue. But somehow, someway, Denver is the team of destiny.

It is confusing though. If D'Haran Wins then

Denver(4) @ Alpine (1)

Tortuga(3) @ D'Haran (2)

If RI wins, I'm not sure who makes the playoffs. Denver will be 11-3 (hopefully) and so would Rhode Island and D'Haran. Who gets the wild card in that situation?

depends on who takes the division... only two teams will battle for the wild card... i was last told by support it would come down to the winner of the H2H

Well D'Hara and RI will have split our games if we lose but i think we have the tiebreaker in points, not sure (GLB1 is much easier to find stats....

If denver makes it they are the wildcard no matter, so if you are in you play alpine, i'm not sure who gets the tiebreaker between RI and Denver tho

Looks like RI holds the breaker over Denver, so if RI beats D'Hara then D'Hara still gets the division (points scored tiebreaker) and then RI gets the wildcard.

If D'Hara wins i think that Denver is in...

Denver is now a fan of D'Hara

(Maybe) haha

Use the matchup page to find relative stats between two teams, easiest way
RI leads D'Hara in points allowed by 11 - so if D'Hara wins by 12 they get the division, by 10 or less and RI gets the division, by 11 and it goes to points scored, which is D'Hara already.

H2H - Points allowed - Points scored is the tiebreaker order

If D'Hara wins we win the division, that isn't up for debate, it's if D'hara loses where the whole thing gets messy

How is it Huge?, our largest loss of the season is 7 points to Alpine and other teams.

I agree the top teams have done better than we have consistently this season and deserve to be in the spots they are in. Our offense took a little too long to get going and we training a new OC.

The playoff teams deserve their spots but we've been "on the field" with everyone and obviously we need to get better but new OC with some newer agents, I'm excited about our season 4 odds.
