I know it's early, but I wanted to check and verify that I'm out of contention. But I was pretty confused by the rule we have for playoff's. The rule reads like it was copied from a 12 team league. Since I wasn't here last year, can someone clarify for me how many teams make it, how they're seeded, etc.

The rule reads:
QUOTE
5.5 Playoffs

The playoffs begin in week 14. Two Division Champions and one Wildcard from each conference will make the playoffs, totaling six playoff teams. The top seed in each conference will have a bye in week 14 and play the winner of the match between the two remaining teams in each conference in week 15. In week 16 the championship game will be held pitting the two Conference Champions against one another.

The Division Champions will be determined by the following criteria.

1) Overall Winning Percentage
2) Division Winning Percentage
3) HTH = Head-To-Head Record
4) Total Points Scored

The Wildcard from each conference will be determined by the following criteria:

1) Overall Winning Percentage from the teams left after Division Champions are determined
2) Conference Winning Percentage
3) HTH = Head-To-Head Record
4) Total Points Scored

Between the Division Champions, the number one seed will be determined by:
1) Overall Winning Percentage
2) Conference Winning Percentage
3) HTH = Head-To-Head Record
4) Total Points Scored

Tiebreakers in playoff matches will be determined by:
1) Bench Points
2) Playoff Seed
3) Alternating years for each conference if a tie still exists after the game score, bench points, and if the two teams have the same playoff seed from their respective conferences. In seasons beginning in even numbered years, Anytime Conference holds the final tiebreaker. In seasons beginning in odd numbered years, Anyplace Conference holds the final tiebreaker.

6 teams total make the playoffs. Each of the 4 division winners and then a wildcard team from each conference

ETA: Looks like 4 of you are fighting over the wildcard spot and you would only be 1 game behind at most, by no means are you out of contention

Not at all. It's very early. I wouldn't think Tony's out of contention either.

I would like to change the last wildcard to the high points scorer of the teams remaining. Sometimes teams score a lot of points but luck gives them a bad record, but that's for another time.
