Hi all,
I'm currently 17-1 in my Italian division 3 league.

After a quick check, I found that there are 4 teams managed by a computerized player in our div 2.
In div 3, there is only one 18-0 team. There are also three more 17-1 teams, which all have a point differential of around +600, just like me (although I should be able to vastly improve mine in the last games, thanks to a very easy schedule).

Now, the question is: assuming that I can leave at least one of those three teams behind me, at least in terms of PD, am I guaranteed an automatic promotion in div 2, regardless of playoffs result? Or is there any other variable I should factor in?

Yep, you are. But if you get promoted by bots cleanup you wont get promotional attendance bonus. Spo basicly you lose like 1-1,5 mill of incomes next season + cash for winning league. So anyways wining league should be your first priority.

Also to mention if bots are 8, or 7and 6th place in the league 2 you wont get their place because they are ment to demote anyways. You only get the place if bots end up season 5th or above and in very rare ocasions when 2 bots play against each other in relegation series, so 1 of them wins, but gets demoted because he is bot

Εxtra promotions are awarded to teams in order to replace botified teams in the division above, when those bots are not among their respective league's FOUR teams that relegate.

So if any of these bots you mentioned, relegate by being 8th or through playouts, their place will be filled out by division III champions.
