So I just completed my first full season in League IV.8, finished second in my conference with 17 wins, made it to the league finals and lost a competitive tie breaker (I was winning at half time in all three finals games!). The result? Another season in League IV.8, and 4th place trophy. I was hearing that with the bot cleanups in III divisions, teams with 17 wins from IV divisions would probably be enough to move up. Any way to appeal? I feel so lowly down here after finishing a season filled with lots of easy wins and a strong playoff run.

I should add that I finished with the 3rd best record in the league, which makes me wonder how I got stuck with the 4ths place trophy...

Also, bot cleanups are being done based on regular season record, so advancing to the league final does not guarantee that you will promote via a clean-up.

Yeah, yeah. Still feels a bit low, and I'll attack this season with a chip on my shoulder for sure. I'll have to justify my griping by plowing through the competition in Season 6.
