They are a standard single elimination tournament bracket based on the top 6 of regular season seeding.

Starting Week 15 (the week after this upcoming week) the first round starts. The top 2 seeds have Byes (they automatically advance to the next round without having to beat anyone) and seeds 3-6 will be matched up against each other. Just like the regular season, there will be a one-week head-to-head matchup. The winner of each match-up advances to the next round and the loser is knocked out. Then Week 16 the winner of the two matchups faces seeds 1 and 2. The winner of each of those matchups advances to the championship game. Winner of that game wins the league.

Also just realized that the championship game is on Week 17. Kind of a bummer lol, lots of teams rest their best players on week 17.

Also, the losers of the match-ups technically go to the "consolation bracket" which is basically another single elimination bracket for 3rd place which all 10 players are eligible for. Thought I should mention since 3rd place still wins 10% of the pot in this league.

So basically winner of the main championship bracket gets 1st place, the loser of the main championship game gets 2nd, and the winner of the consolation bracket gets 3rd. (I'm not 100% about the consolation bracket part, he may have changed the settings)


Okay, cool. Thanks for all the information! <3

Does this mean that the consolation bracket will have to finish in the first week of the NFL playoffs? if championship is in 17 the consolation should take 1 more week to complete, right?

ps good luck tonight lol

If this league is like most others, the loser of the championship game doesn't go to the consolation bracket, they just instantly get 2nd place.

So if there is a consolation bracket (the Yahoo site shows one but it shows all 4 teams that miss the playoffs have a Bye so idk if that's intentional or if Santara turned it off), it will finish on Week 17 as well.

Welp, I did it. Managed to finish the regular season dead last, yet score the most points in the entire league.

Yeah never seen that happen before. By far the best team, by far the most points, by far in last place.

I just rarely post on jsp at all anymore. I'm entirely too busy to post while at work, which didn't used to be the case, and after working 12 hour days 5 days a week, I just have more important things to do with what little time I have left before falling asleep.

I remember reading the recap of your last game, where it said "Old School Geeks would be 9-3 if they played the same schedule (excluding head-to-head matchups) as Alex."

Should've invested more in defensive players.
