Warrior General Games

Soooo I am a bit embarrassed because I accidentally deleted Longhorn fan's thread about playoff seeding. I went to reply to ryan_grant's post (quoted below) and accidentally hit delete! As per Ryan's post, if a three way tie occurs it should be determined by the following:

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

If it didn't work out that way, a link to the league would be helpful so we can take a closer look. We do have an entire FAQ forum that's meant for stuff like this, but just in case ppl from GLB main wanted to add to this thread I am restarting it here for a few minutes before moving it over to FAQ. Sorry I wasn't able to save more posts.

3 Way tie for 5th,

Team A beat team C
Team B beat team A
Team C beat team B

Team A total points scored 1811
Team B total points scored 1369
Team C total points scored 1640


Yet the seeding went
5th Team B
6th Team A
7th Team C


or is it points allowed thats measured?

Edit: Measured points allowed
Team A 271
Team B 223
Team C 220

So it should go
5th Team C
6th Team B
7th Team A

right? I'm not complaining, I would much rather have the 6th seed but it seems flawed

Or you know.... the wiki would be useful too if that ever got fixed

Who will be the first to name a team Chicago Pythons now?

Well I left out a little bit of info, the team in 8th also had the same record,but against the other 3 teams they were tied with they went 1-2. Could that have impacted it at all? (so 3 teams went 2-1 against the other 3, 1 went 1-2)

Yes the team that went 1-2 against the other 3 would be in last amongst those teams in this senario.

This is correct, thanks DarkRogue!

It looks like I can move this over to FAQ now, this question comes up quite a bit during this time of the season

Here's the league (guessing w/ confidence).

GLB's seeding
Sarajevo - 5th
Thunder Bay - 6th
Nevada - 7th
Notre Dame - 8th

All finished 10-6

Record against one another

Sarajevo - 2-1
Thunder Bay - 2-1
Nevada - 1-2
Notre Dame - 1-2

That means we look at Points Allowed to determine 5th/6th seed and 7th/8th seed (two independent calculations)

Sarajevo - 223
Thunder Bay - 271

Nevada - 220
Notre Dame - 466


Explains why GLB ranked them as it did.
