The corner case people are talking about is when two teams in the West have .600+ records, while the top team in the East has a ~.500 record. The only way to allow for two team in the West to promote is if you allowed for teams to move between the East and the West. So California teams would be in the East for instance, while a New York team could end up in the West. | ||

I've had my share of 2nd places but I like the system as is. +1 agreed in full Add more teams and then the next suggestion will be that everyone is in the playoffs. If you want to promote, put on your big boy pants and win your division! |

I think adding wildcards & another round of playoffs would probably have a similar effect. Steve |

I think adding wildcards & another round of playoffs would probably have a similar effect. I'm confused again. In a good way or a bad way? Is that a "yes" or a "no"? I'm regularly confounded at the lack of clarity in official admin responses. No new playoffs. No wildcards. Dear me, no. I'm horrified. |

Adding more teams to the playoffs here would have a similar effect. More down time before the start of the new season. | ||

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9596 Haverhill Halflings III.1 | With just the 1 series, I haven't seen anyone actually complain about not playing for 3 days while the playoffs happen. Not sure if that 1v1 is fixing any existing issue. Personally, I don't care to play for 3rd or 5th. They seem like meaningless games at the end of the season (especially since playoffs is a lot more luck based than the actual season rankings). 1st or nothing is good for me. 1st in playoffs feels like League bragging rights. But 1st of 2nd place teams just doesn't feel like anything. | ||

It seems like a simple and reasonable solution to keep everyone active. |
