Dirty Inc. Should not be in Gold.

Since I can remember, the extra gold bids went to the best (according to playoff seeding tiebreakers) conference champions.

This continued... but now, all of a sudden out of nowhere, a team who (likely is the best candidate for Gold) lost in the second round gets a bid.

I demand this be explained.

According to the same rules that have always been used the Hartford Shock should be the team given the gold bid, if they choose to refuse, Two Turtles One Cup would get the bid, and plenty of other teams are far ahead of Dirty on the list.

I just do not support switching standards and giving (however deserved) someone a gold bid over another team.

I am deeply offended for the Hartford Shock, and hope this doesn't bring conflict between Mike and I, as its not meant to be personal.

And to be quite honest, as I've noticed its quite possible the script has nothing to do with the advancement in the playoffs.... if that is the case..... then that is retarded.

16-0 means absolutely nothing if you lose 2nd round of the playoffs, you aren't anywhere near as good as the teams that went to the third round, IDC ABOUT YOUR OBJECTIVE OPINIONS, but the playoff seeding is set up to ensure the BEST teams advance the furthest in the playoffs, so that is how we should view it.

No way a 2nd round team should be in over the Hartford Shock... 1loss in the regular season, 2 rounds further in the playoffs....

hmmmmm

Who is this Hartford Shock you speak so highly of?

They are just the next team in line to make it to gold if another team drops (Tombstone) I don't think that Hartford should be in, but I defiantly don't think DIRTY should be in, not due to skill, but do to them skipping over 10+ teams that made it further than them in the playoffs and would have gotten into gold over them.

I don't care if they are a good team, I care that they be treated fairly.... and I also care that if they are going to do it objectively, which clearly this promotion is, then there are 5-6 teams that shouldn't be in Gold right now.

If they are doing this via a formula, its important they know that their formula is stupid, all playoffs games you don't participate in should be assumed losses when comparing teams season records for sake of league advancement, this would sufficiently reward teams for advancing through the playoffs, as that is the only main goal of the season.

drama dude, if they can compete they will stay in gold. If not... bye bye

So just, ignore the fact that 21 teams that made it further in the playoffs (the truest indication of a teams likely quality the next season) than Dirty Inc. aren't going to gold, while they get to.

21 Teams that PROVED themselves to be better, are sitting at home in their freshly screwed up silver leagues rather than watering out the mouth thinking of playing in gold, because of a poor system, or a poor decision, either way.

Dirty got knocked out by bye week. Most gold teams would get destroyed by them. They sorta won it all in s13...

Yes, WSB got knocked out by Bye-Week a round later in the playoffs, I DONT CARE ABOUT THE SCORE, as you can't just use a common opponent as a tiebreaker, there are TYPES of teams that perform better against other TYPES of teams....

The point is there is 20 teams that went further in the playoffs, that at least 16 of which lost to a team that is now going to gold....

If you wanted to get really technical then this team would actually advance over DIRTY not including playoffs (According to the promotion rules)

I thought that it was farther into the playoffs?

It Should be farther into the playoffs, but it appears that its not, or this promotion has been made outside the parameters of normal promotion, in which case I REALLY protest.
