6 squads in playoffs?

[genocidal]

Giving first-round byes in the system we currently have is way better than giving byes in the conference system because now every squad plays one another in the regular season so the seedings will be more accurate. I still think we should do an 8 team playoff anyway just to make it more exciting.

[pascone]

the top two teams in each league will get a bye as a reward to having the best regular season. this way, squads won't lose interest as they are already playoffs qualified. if there were 8 teams, only 4 teams wouldn't make the playoffs... what would be the point of the regular season?

(a) V (b) - (c) V (d) - (e) V (f)

Winner of AB, Winner of CD and Winner of EF all play eachother, top two with most kills qualify to final.

Don't say 'what if a squad has a bad round' - they shouldn't be having a bad round if they're in the semi-finals.

Btw, is this up for discussion? What system will be exercised as it is currently?

[genocidal]

Nice point Ward. However, there was a certain word that really made me think 'wow, he's some worthless dumbfuck who's trying so hard to use complex verbose in order to make his point seem more important.'

"Complex verbose" makes no sense. "Verbose" is an adjective and cannot be used as a noun.

Firstly 'immaterial' cannot be used in this sentence both semantically and grammatically. Secondly, something can't be 'very' immaterial. Immaterial is a definite, there cannot be any pre-adjectival determinant. A more appropriate word would have been 'misrepresentative.'

Grammatically he was slightly incorrect - semantically it does make sense. He should have said, "The advancement system based on +/- in regular season is immaterial to how a squad will perform in playoffs."

Based on your post and your history of idiocy I would say that you're both A.) non-native English speaker and B.) stupid. So please, spare us all your "lessons" in grammar and vocabulary.

Ok, I accept the verbose comment - I was unsure of it's actual word form as I've heard it misused in conversation many times.

The main essence of what I was trying to say was that it was an overly complex word in a bid to make himself look more intellectual when infact the point carried itself.
Immaterial does not make semantical sense, unless you warp the general goal posts of linguistic understanding to a state where anything can be explained by some illogical route of creative insanity.

Based on my post? Ok, I was illinformed about the exact word-type of 'verbose'

History of idiocy? Hmm, evidence?

non-native English speaker? Refering to my first point, I was slightly confused about a word type, very irrational evaluation of such a minor 'offence'.

stupid? I'm not going to give you my academic credentials but I'm pretty sure they're better than yours : )

How is "immaterial" an overly complex word? It seems to me, and everyone else, that you're more guilty of that than he is when you use words that you aren't even sure what part of speech they are.

Well congratulations, you made yourself look even more confused and stupid. Creative insanity? Immaterial means irrelevant. You don't have to be creative to understand what he said - it makes perfect sense. I'm sorry you've never heard the word before.

stupid? I'm not going to give you my academic credentials but I'm pretty sure they're better than yours : )

I doubt you've graduated high school so why are you starting this conversation?

Seed it

A nice solution for conferences is to just seed them based on regular season play. Conference 1: #1,#3, #5 Conference 2: #2, #4, #6. Seeding based on wins/losses in regular season. Tiebreaker coming from head to head or points spread. #1 and #2 taking a bye week in their conferences, respectively.

Immaterial - grade 6 word that isn't used a lot. How about addressing the actual issue and not derailing the topic to some useless English lessons

I'm not sure what you mean by this, a second round after regular season?

If this is playoffs then 3 would play against 5 (and 2 against 4) and that's just wrong.

It would be kinda interesting to have 8 teams and possibly do a 2 loss elimination style playoff. Some teams are very good and have a bad day and don't get to show what they're really made of and some fluke teams that really don't deserve to move to the next round end up being there. Double elim style playoffs could somewhat fix that and make everything truly fair. Everyone starts in the "winners bracket", losers of the first games drop to the "losers bracket". At this point you have 4 team in each bracket. Winners bracket teams play each other, likewise in losers bracket. Again, winners bracket game losers drop to losers bracket, losers bracket game losers are out. And repeat until you have one team left in winners bracket and one team left in losers bracket. Then the final...the winners bracket team has to lose twice to be out, whereas the losers bracket finalists only get one chance.

let me clarify. seed #3 vs #5 for quarter finals seed #4 and seed #6 for semis
SEMIFINAL ROUND: winner of #3 vs #5 plays #1 and winner of #4 and #6 plays #2.
FINAL ROUND (holla): Winners of semi 1 vs winners of semi 2

then. ?go twlj,twlb

Twl Season 10
Champions- Pandora
Caps- Sarger, Vatican Assassin, Mouse
Players- reputation, plasma, eelam,... etc.

And Team #5 gets ignored altogether :P

[Miku19]

quarters: A: 3v6, B: 4v5
semis: C: 1vB, D: 2vA

that's the way it's supposed to go
