Teams really need to be hand picked so the conferences are balanced.
rankings leave too much room for disagreement/debate...
sucks to end up in a strong conference but whatever...life is not always fair...build a better team...game plan better...

What Bort should do is:
take the 16 teams from the WL playoffs and randomly place 8 in each conference... then he should take the 16 newly promoted PRO teams and place 8 in each conference.. That is fair to me (not sure if this is already what he does).

I 100% agree with that. That is even more fair...

Get a better team? That doesn't mean much coming from Indy.

How about put all 16 playoff teams in the same conference the next season...
The newbies in their own conference...
Talk about a tough ladder...

Yeah this is a no go. At least take the time to balance this ish.
Zeta was a joke last season. Alpha is a joke this season. The same teams are enjoying weak competition over and over.

How about:
-Take the 2 conf champs from last season and randomly put 1 in each conf
-Take the 2 conf runners-up from last season and randomly put 1 in each conf
-Take the 4 teams that lost in rd 2 and randomly put 2 in each conf
-Take the 4 teams that lost in rd 1 and randomly put 2 in each conf
-Take the 16 new teams and randomly put 8 in each conf

They're pretty fucking terrible right now. "Let's stack all the top teams in one conference! durhurhurhrurhur"
I mean, forget this random script. Do it based on rankings of some sort.
sounds great in theory...Who does the rankings? How do you know who the best teams are going to be? What formula do you use to predict which teams will lose their OC/DC for an extended period (or completely) and which ones will put forth real effort? I suppose you could then have each team fill out Vacation questionnaires for their key GMs and factor that in, too. Then, use effective lvl to determine if the dots being replaced are upgrades or downgrades over what they were the ssn before? Add on top of that some teams being able to boost more players.
As I said, sounds real good and great, but it starts falling apart in practice. Hell, last ssn's WL champs are 10-5. Wouldn't have they been considered the toughest team in GLB entering this ssn? Who would have ranked QCBCs above Kai, Mayan, Hali & SoCal?
