Lawtai, you will get the higher seed. The first thing it comes down to is head-to-head.

Does strength of victory not count the strength of the people defeating you?

No, that would be the strength of schedule.

1. Apply division tie break to eliminate all but highest ranked in each division.
2. Head to head sweep ( only if. 1 club deaf rated all others or if 1 lost to all others)
3. Best in conference record
4. Best common games record minimum 4
5. strength of victory
6. Strength of schedule

Hopefully that's enough? But it goes further.

Division tie break is:

1 Head to head
2 Division record
3 common games record
4 conference record

So step 1 would be tiebreak between xeroxen and Doodat. Then you would figure the tie break between the 3 remaining.

Are you using this? What would the best common games be? Like seeing what games vs people played in common and getting records from there? I could potentially screw myself here.

Looking at the strength of victory, it could very well depend on the Memories vs necro match.

Yup, the common games record didn't apply because their was maybe only one common game and the minimum is 4.

Yes, that match can change things one way or another. Also, other unfinished matches can also affect the strength of victory calculation.

[Necrocat219]

Just a note in the standings I am 10-4, I think the game vs awepertunity want counted? (So it should be 11-4?)

The two missing is your ongoing match against Memories and the match vs stevchye that will be a forfeit in your favor. But you're right it should be 11-4.

So there are 11 matches we are waiting on results for.

The following matches have been confirmed as ongoing:
Week 8 - San Francisco 49ers (awpertunity) @Jacksonville Jaguars (FrozenNorthernKid)
Week 10 - Jacksonville Jaguars (FrozenNorthernKid) @Tennessee Titans (Philr66)
Week 11 - Indianapolis Colts (mr_13en) @Tennessee Titans (Philr66)
Week 11 - Arizona Cardinals (Flarp55) @Jacksonville Jaguars (FrozenNorthernKid)
Week 12 - Tennessee Titans (Philr66) @Oakland Raiders (izzilla)
Week 14 - Houston Texans (Husky Pete) @Jacksonville Jaguars (FrozenNorthernKid)
Week 15 - Washington Redskins (.Memories.) @Atlanta Falcons (Necrocat219)
Week 15 - Kansas City Chiefs (ikkyqw) @Oakland Raiders (izzilla)
Week 16 - Tennessee Titans (Philr66) @Jacksonville Jaguars (FrozenNorthernKid)

These are matches unaccounted for:
Week 5 - Kansas City Chiefs (ikkyqw) @Tennessee Titans (Philr66)
Week 17 - Kansas City Chiefs (ikkyqw) @San Diego Chargers (Bubba2701)

I PM’d Philr66 and Bubba2701 (AttackBomb) asking if they started them so hopefully they’ll respond. I’m pretty sure if they started these games they timed out in their favor since it seems ikkyqw went inactive. Same goes for izzilla’s game with ikkyqw for Week 15, I’m guessing that will be a time out as well.

If anybody has updates on these matches, please post. Thanks guys.

Some of these matches will definitely affect the standings/seedings, but what I'll try to figure out is if there are any matches that won't affect the standings/seedings one way or another and let everyone know so we can move forward to the playoffs without waiting on those results.

So the Wild Card race for the NFC is still on the line.

I just wanted to share this with you guys so you can see how the last Wild Card spot hangs in the balance:



In a nutshell, Spacechef is eliminated and .Memories. has clinched a Wild Card spot. The last Wild Card spot will depend on the remaining matches and can go to either yufuj, Doodat, or JChris. As games wrap up a clear picture may present itself.

Note: The highlighted teams still have ongoing matches.

---

Another note: If Memories wins his match against Necrocat then he automatically gets the 1st Wild Card spot with a 10-6 record. Otherwise he competes in the Strength of Victory calculation.

These tables are impressive! It looks like statistics in the US are taken to another level...

Our European soccer leagues seem so unsophisticated now
