"Playing for 2nd"
« on: September 18, 2011, 05:00:12 pm »
I've noticed in several of the games for round 4, players have been trying to get 2nd place instead of 3rd to have a better chance at reaching playoffs when it comes down to 3 way. 2nd and 3rd are supposed to equal which is why the both award 10 points. I don't know a solution but I think next season if the same format is being used, a different tiebreaker system needs to be in place.

well in my case game was over and rain was already qualified so it didnt change nothing. I didnt see another case. I said tiebreaking system sucked. It will be upgraded next season.

Yeah, we have a new system we're going to implement next season which will (hopefully) prevent too many ties from happening.
