6 squads in playoffs?

[Plasma]

And Team #5 gets ignored altogether :P

its late. forgot 5 came after 4. screw team 5. i think its edited right now

[Sufficient]

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

that's the way it's supposed to go

Exactly. Short and simple. 12 teams. 6 make playoffs. Top 2 get byes. 5 games total in playoffs including championship game.

[Ignominy]

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

that's the way it's supposed to go

that's unquestionably the best way to do it

Still don't see the point of not having 8 team playoffs and making 1&2 play the first week, it's just two less games for everyone, and they'll still have an advantage in seeding because 1 will be playing 8 and 2 will be playing 7.

[Stabwound]

8/12 squads in playoffs is stupid. It pretty much makes the regular season pointless. 6 is the way to go, and use Miku19's system. If two teams get a bye, it gives every team something to work for, whereas with 8 in the playoffs you're pretty much just half-assing it for 3 months to make sure you get 8th place.

that is the system being used

[Ward]

That's quite a biased system which favors the squads that are already on top, I really don't like the way it's set; so improportionate.

[genocidal]

How is it biased? Everyone has the same regular season schedule. Win your games and you'll get a bye.

[concealed]

maybe he means in the playoffs, but thats not really biased. they perform well in season, they get advantage in playoffs. pretty logical and i appreciate this change. thanks twl staff for not making it 8 team playoff

[pascone]

the nfl does it

[genocidal]

Yeah and it's even more fair than the NFL because everyone has the same schedule.

Immaterial means irrelevant.

Immaterial does not mean irrelevant. It means 'without substance'..'consisting of no matter'. Alternatively it can mean 'without consequence' but either way it does not in fit with what Ward said.

[Barton]

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.

i like that idea

immaterial:

Adjective
1. Of no importance or relevance; inconsequential or irrelevant. 2. Having no material body or form.

This is really getting tiresome. One would think you'd actually look something up before opening your mouth yet again.

[Zazu]

i like that idea

Same.
Gives you an extra reason to try hard to become a top 2 squad and get a free ticket to the semi's.
Sounds good.

[PaulOakenfold]

An addition to the free ticket to the semis.... if we go with the 'squads that go to semis get an auto-invite for next season' it will also give squads that take the top two places regular season to get a free ticket to next season
