You have done a great job in just one season going from nothing to 1-0 in the finals. It isn't all bad luck for the Highlanders though they may get a bot promotion anyway.
Current Status
IPL
Golden Rule destroyed Luck-Now Lightning 99-56 and look like becomming the new champions. But Luck-Now Lightning conserved their enthusiasm in game one and will be looking for a home win tonight and then a little luck to steal game three.
The Following teams are bots:
Great 8
Game Spoilerz 3rd
Detriot Pistons 6th
the vipers 7th Lost relegation series so relegated.
shehanas team 8th Relegated
Big 8
Major Ball Blockers 5th
El Novena 7th Lost relegation series so relegated.
Force India 8th Relegated
So the vipers, shehanas team, El Novena and Force India will be relegated normally.
But also Game Spoilerz, Detriot Pistons and Major Ball Blockers will be relegated in a bot cleanup, that will mean there will be seven teams promoted to the IPL this season.
So that means three other teams that don't win the championship will be promoted. In this order.
II.2 plateaus 22 0 2153 1087 1.000 1066 (1-0)
II.3 Imphal Highlanders 22 0 2232 1526 1.000 706 (0-1)
II.1 sidhu lions 20 2 2269 1356 0.909 913 (out)
II.1 Hardcourt Dunkers 20 2 2134 1387 0.909 747 (1-0)
II.2 K-Rim Time 20 2 2086 1490 0.909 596 (0-1)
II.4 arex kr 19 3 2218 1996 0.864 222 (1-0) But a bot themselves...
II.3 kudda 14 8 1889 1836 0.636 53 (out)
II.4 Super Challengers 13 9 2072 2100 0.591 -28 (out) Also a bot...
So Win lose or draw plateaus, Imphal Highlanders and sidhu lions are going up which is good news for the lions. Assuming the Imphal Highlanders lose and get bot promotion number two and the plateaus and Hardcourt Dunkers win that would mean that K-Rim Time would also get a bot promotion.
If arex kr who is a bot manage to win their championship that would create another bot promotion and this would be for kudda.
So here are my predictions of who is going to the IPL:
Champions
II.1 Hardcourt Dunkers
II.2 plateaus
II.3 all dragoons
II.4 arex kr (then immediately relegated as a bot)
Bot Cleanup Promotions
II.3 Imphal Highlanders
II.1 sidhu lions
II.2 K-Rim Time
II.3 kudda
I guess in a week we will know if I am right. The final factor I don't know how to deal with is teams that go bot in the next few days. I think if they go bot monday they are relegated, if after monday they stay up for another entire season.
