Rule Change Vote - In-Season Tiebreakers

Da Bomb · 07-13-2007, 04:56 PM

Right now, this is the rule if two teams playing one another are tied any given week:

Should an individual games result in a tie score, the winner will be determined by year to date (YTD) total points scored. When YTD total points scored is even, the winner will be decided by best conference record. Should this result in a further tie, divisional records will be used to determine a winner.

We have changed to decimal scoring, and to the nearest hundredth, so I can't imagine us having many ties, if ever. However the current system says that such a tie would be broken by total points that season. I don't think that should relate at all to that weeks games. If you're really tied down to the nearest 0.01, I'd rather just call it a tie in the standings. I can't imagine being tied at 183.32 with someone and getting a big L because my TE had an off week five weeks ago.

Simple vote. Leave the tiebreaker rule as is, or switch it to allow a TIE to be part of the standings if it occurs.

I am all for changing and allowing ties.

It's highly unlikely a tie would happen, but I say allow it to end in a tie.

If it's a tie it's a tie. No need to artificialy inflate the score. Let me use an old Jedi Knight saying "Sith happen's".
