Just to be sure : bot promotion is based on win/losses ratio ONLY ? am i right ?

Because i got confused with last year promotion from D4 to D3 in utopia where it was supposed to be "bot promotion" criteria but conference leader (regular season) were promoted in the end.

Thx

Should be W/L and then Point Differential. S28 in Utopia used bot promotion rules as well.

This thread has suddenly become a super long discussion about the new promotion system. I don't have the time to read all that so, if you want answers, ask a concise and direct question, and I'll answer.

The extra spots in promotion for higher leagues will be league winners and the the other spots are going to the team will best record who lost their final?

He already said they will use bot promotion mate, so after the finals winners for each league they'll use regular season record and PD.

I suspect this is also to accommodate for the fact that Utopia is not a perfect pyramid. D4 does not tie in with D3. When all leagues are filled he numbers of league winners in D4 could be higher than the spots avaliable from demoting D3 teams. Promoting D4 teams will have 96 spots instead of 64, having only 64 could create a significant problem if the D4 leagues were actually more than 64.

Can u confirm that promotion will be based on :
- league champions (PO champions)
- best W/L ratios (without any condition on playing the Finals or finishing at the 1st place in the regular season or anything)

Thx

Seriously guys, how many times are you going to ask the same thing?
League champions plus best W/L ratio teams will promote at the end of the season.

As many times as needed to get a clear answer which, I agree with you, should only take a few lines.

If u read this whole thread and some others u will see that 1/ there have been a lot of confusion and improvisation on the rules of promotion for utopia since the beginning of it 2/ the rules have changed every season and 3/ many managers do not know what "bot promotion rules" are because they are not concerned by it.

So i think that asking for a clear and definitive list of criteria is useful to many players. If u dont need any infos on the promotion rules, i suggest u dont open a thread named "promotions rules".

I didn't know what the promotion rules are either, that's why I visited this thread. Marin said it will be bot promotion, which is the same promotion type used not more than a month ago in Utopia. Assuming that Utopia users that played last season are the same users playing this season, there should be no confusion whatsoever, right?
