Current standings with 1 round to go (3r through 6th place).

3 Amsterdam Panthers 12-3-0 W4
4 Helsinki Coyotes 11-4-0 W9
5 Quazi Phantoms 11-4-0 W4
6 Bonn Villains 11-4-0 W1

Next games.
3. Amsterdam Panthers vs 5. Quazi Phantoms
4. Helsinki Coyotes vs 13. San Marino Longhorns
6. Bonn Villains vs 1. Berlin Widowmakers

Now i expect Berlin to go for the perfect season so i don't see Bonn able to climb to 12-4.
But...
Helsinki should and must win from San Marino putting them at 12-4 also.
Now if Quazi wins it's last match against Amsterdam than we would have a 3 team tie at 12-4.

Amsterdam has won from Helsinki.
Helsinki has won from Quazi
So if Quazi wins from Amsterdam the first tie breaker rule is nullified right?
That would put us into the 2nd tiebreaker rule.

If there are more than 2 teams tied (same record), then it's based upon these factor in this order:

1. Number of head-to-head wins against the other tied teams with the same record.
2. Number of total points scored.
3. Number of total points allowed.


According to rule 2 Points scored we have the following numbers.
Amsterdam panthers 1057
Helsinki Coyotes 1006
Quazi Phantoms 918.

So my question is if Amsterdam looses from Quazi and the others win they would still retain the 3rd place right?
Helsinki would remain 4th and Quazi would remain 5th due to rule 2 of the tiebreaker.
(this off course assuming that the scoring difference stay's about the same....).

Yes but they lost to Helsinki... so they can't move ahead of Helsinki cause they have the tie breaker between them and we won from Helsinki so we own that tie breaker.
So in case Quazi wins from Amsterdam we have all have a tie breaker over each other but not the other team wich equals out...
Tie breakers between the teams can not decide the standings in my opinion...

yeah, ask anyone on the Villains and I really pushed for us to beat Quazi this season. I thought that would not only earn us some respect but show that ..well. we have a good enough team. but alas, we have more work to do.

we've made some progress, but I have no doubt that Berlin will beat us in a bad way.

at least I am realistic. we had a good season, did better than last year, and are making improvements as we go .

salute to the teams of the Ocho for making it a fun season and some competitive games for those of us that aren't at the top of the league.

and salute to the teams that are at the top of the standings. I have a better Idea this season of what work it takes to build a team and you have obviously done the work.

good luck to everyone in the playoffs.

yes congrats and good luck to all those who make the playoffs. any team can make it with the right additions to the team. i took over Helsinki about 5-6 games in. we started out rough, but since then we have added some talent and have been on a 9 win streak and hopefully can finish strong in our last game and hopefully snatch a homefield advantage to make some cashola.

good luck all!
