With that, I am signaling the official start of the Wild Card round. Here is the format:
Diamond League Wild Card PoolDivision Wild Cards will be separated into two pools by their league. Each pool will play in a similar format to what they have been following all season with one change - matchups between players will consist of THREE MATCHES TOTAL. Do NOT read this as "best of 3." This means each player should be playing 6 games total this round. The player from each pool with the best record in this round will move on to the playoffs. Ties will be broken by total points earned during the season.
Agammemnon (1 - 4), Lamppost (3 - 3), wilson46 (4 - 1)
- Agammemnon (1-2) vs Lamppost (2-1)
- Agammemnon (0) vs wilson46 (2)
- wilson46 (2-1) vs Lamppost (1-2)
- Kevin Garrett, Lady Bug, Nachos, and wilson46 are tied in their division for the Wildcard / Division Leader position. That's a four way tie.
Here are the possible outcomes of a four way group pairing:
- 3-0 2-1 1-2 0-3
- 2-1 2-1 1-2 1-2
- 3-0 1-2 1-2 1-2
- 2-1 2-1 2-1 0-3
- In the first scenario, if a player goes 3-0 they become the division leader. The one who's 2-1 becomes the wildcard.
- In the second scenario, if two players are 2-1 they play off for the division leader position. The person who wins this game becomes division leader, the one who loses becomes the wildcard.
- In the third scenario, the 3-0 individual becomes the division leader. The 3 people who are 1-2 must face each other in a round robin. The winner of the round robin will become the wildcard.
- In the fourth scenario, if it's 2-1 2-1 2-1, another round robin between those 3 individuals will take place. If the round robin between these 3 people does not result in a tie (2-0 1-1 0-2,) the 2-0 individual becomes the wildcard. If this round robin ties, you guys must play it again until there's a winner (hopefully it doesn't keep resulting in ties because that has the potential to go on for a very long time!)
Pearl League Wild Card Pool
kokoloko (1 - 5), reyscarface (4 - 2), twash (4 - 2)
- reyscarface (1-2) vs twash (2-1)
- kokoloko (1-2) vs twash (2-1)
- reyscarface (3-0) vs kokoloko (0-3)
@kokoloko: you have priority in choosing which Wildcard you'd like to challenge for their spot since you won the Platinum League. You may wait for the results of the KG vs Nachos vs Lady Bug vs wilson46 / Bluewind vs reyscarface games before deciding who to challenge, or you may challenge one of B-Lulz, twash, Lamppost, or Agammemnon for their spots. You must face the person you challenge in a bo3. If you win, you replace them as the Wildcard and must play the individuals who they are pit up against. If you lose, you're out.
@Hantsuki: Once kokoloko picks who he wants to challenge, it's your turn to pick. The same thing applies: You may wait for the results of the KG vs Nachos vs Lady Bug vs wilson46/ Bluewind vs reyscarface games before deciding who to challenge, or you may challenge one of B-Lulz, twash, Lamppost, or Agammemnon for their spots (but of course, you can't challenge the person kokoloko picks.) You must face the person you challenge in a bo3. If you win, you replace them as the Wildcard and must play the individuals who they are pit up against. If you lose, you're out.
