As you can see, theoretically there could be 3-way or even 4-way tie situations (equal amount of wins-teams) after Regular Season.

As conversation about ranking teams in equal wins-situations has halted/taken break recently, to make it more clear and fair upfront before last Round (Round 15) has been played I wanted to let you guys know that I think we should use ranking system rule that I presented in previous posts, starting from this compilation message (here: (328546.113)), and finally ending to this post here: (328546.118), so total of 4 post from myself.

Also in post (328546.120) I've explained a bit further why this "only all wins or losses"-system has been selected.

[....]

It is also a possibility, that if nobody objects this (rule proposition by me) by, say, 24 hours for now (original publication of this post), we will use this ranking method on Season 3 equal wins situations for 3 or more teams [...]


To quote myself above, no messages within 24 hours of the publication, so we'll use this ranking system in 3 or more teams in tied wins-situations, to create Official Regular Season Rankings (a.k.a. ORSR) for HGL Season 3 Playoffs.


Good luck to everyone on Round 15!

I'll try to create First Round Playoff matchups soon after last Round of Regular Season has been played tomorrow.

Please also arrange your Playoff matches as soon as possible (after schedule has been published), and please provide a link for First Round Playoff match to your teams´own box score post!

Nothing has changed in terms of Playoff practices, so note for example that:
- matches are always played in home or away court, not on neutral court (absolutely no exceptions!)
- Official match times will be used in Playoffs (3.30 PM EET normal time), a.k.a. 15.30
- home team is responsible for sending PU match challenge, etc.

You know how it goes by experience, and as for those who haven't got lots of experience on Playoffs/HGL yet, for me they seem/feel like they'd be well informed/knowledgeable of Playoff practices so I expect everything to go smoothly.

Don't hesitate to ask though, if there's anything you're unsure of.

Please note:
Official HGL Playoff match time on Season 3 will be 3.30 PM EET (Eastern European Time) normal time
(which is same time that you can now see your HGL matches being played when you look at your BB match schedule page).


3.30PM of course means same as 15.30 in European time format.
