Unfair League tiebreaker?

Recommended Posts

I run a long standing keeper, and for years to break ties we allow the team ranked BELOW the two tied teams into the playoffs, both tied teams are out.

 

We have found that this eliminates all fighting, and it makes for some great scenaries the last 2 or 3 games of regular season....what do you guys think?

that sux for the guys who tried hard to win and get in... What happens when the 3rd team is playing against one of the 2 tied teams and just plays a "lesser competitive" team, giving the tied guy an automatic win if he anticipates the other tied guy winning. By throwing this game, he just launched himself into the playoffs when 1 of 2 other teams should have gotten in.

 

I personally wouldn't play in a league like this :unsure:

I like it. In my league we just take the hundreth place decimal scorage of the highest ranked team to determine who makes the championship. If his score is something like 80.56, the 6 th place team gets in. If it's something like 80.71, then the first place team automatically wins the championship, but if he has a zero in that spot, then he automatically forfeits all his games and the league members stone him to death.

Is this serious? If it is you are all a bunch of dolts for agreeing to it.

 

You should try what we do: If two or more teams are tied, on the week of the playoffs they have to come over to the Comishes house at 11:00 AM central, right before kickoff. The commish then loads a single bullit into his six shooter and they take turns holding the gun to each others head and then pulling the trigger. The winner gets his line up inserted into the playoffs, but then has to giver the commish a hummer during the noon game as compensation for the clean up afterwards. I know this sounds harsh, but we are reallydedicated in our league.

If they are tied why not go for high score or head to head match up.Your way has to be the worst way.I would cheat or lose a game if i was in 5th.when i am in the playoff i check the other teams to see if there are better match ups if im in 3rd i think the guy in 1st would be a ez week 1 of the playoffs i will do it.

I don't think you're going to get many people on this site to agree with a rule like that. Most of us work way to hard to abide by such a silly rule. Perhaps in a less serious league something like that would fly, but not mine.
