I don't think divisions are necessary, not sure why we have them. Maybe it helps balance the schedule? The top 8 records make it anyway so it seems pretty useless.

Not sure why you think seeds don't matter, the better seeds get the better matchups. It should probably reseed though.

What I would change for next season is the elimination of the points category.


And what is even worse with this situation is you and vanished only played one time and you won 7-6 lol
I just think the team with the better overall record should be rewarded for that.

The reseeding just helps with the BETTER overall record getting the LOWER overall record every round basically. Cratic and I playing is like Nova and Wisconsin...lol woot basketball reference.

Obviously, don't believe we can do anything about it this time around. We can just all maybe vote on a better process. And at the same time point and laugh at Vanished for getting royally screwed. Better luck next year scrub :P

Of course there is reseeding. All playoffs should have it. That is the point of seeding to begin with. Also the tie breaking is done by Yahoo automatically. I have no control over it, and I think it's fine regardless. Winners should be rewarded. This is why setting your lineups each week, and actually being competitive matters.

The only change I see myself making next year is giving division winners a bye week. I thought I had it setup like that originally, but I wasn't going to change it part way through the season.

Bro it has seeds 1 and 5 playing as well as 6 and 7!!!

Yes definitely agree with the byes. Only way to do that would be reducing the amount of playoff teams to 6.

Yeah reseeding definitely isn't on. Yahoo had a message about changing the setting the last week.

I don't agree with the better record winning tiebreakers. Your regular season record already gives you an advantage in playoff seeding and head to head is what it's all about.

To your point that I only won 7-6 that week, he was only ahead of me by 6 points or something in the regular season and played a different schedule than I did so nothing is perfect.

I understand what you are saying, but say I had a winning record against everyone in the league but you and we finished seeds 1 vs 8? Example...Cratic only has a losing record to you (what a newb) so what if you had finished 8th? I don't believe Cratic should be penalized with a tie breaker if he had the best overall record and 24 more wins than you in the regular season...regardless of your head to head stats.

Or if someone realizes hey I have a losing record to seed 6 and I am currently 3...well let me TANK the final week so I get to seed 4 and play 5. I realized after writing this this is exactly what happened to me LOL but I for the record did not tank!!! Bruins just whupped my ass the last week.

I thought you had it on too. I recall checking for that earlier this season to make sure. Yahoo fudging things up like usual.

Out of curiosity what is the next tie breaker as Cratic and I tied during the regular season? Seed I am guessing?

If a Fantasy Basketball or Hockey playoff game ends in a tie, the deadlock is broken (and a winner is declared) based on:

Head-to-Head (best win-loss-tie percentage in regular season games between the teams)
Overall playoff seed (highest seed wins)


Stealth - you have to bench 5 players tonight. Too many players on a Monday violation.

:Lol:
I thought that too.

I have three teams.
They're all up like 12-1, 13-1, 11-0 right now :p

That'd be an interesting fantasy concept though- that you are limited to X number of games played every week.
Would even the playing field really bc in sure most weeks are skewed in one direction by a decent amount.
