I don't personally see a major problem with the lack of funds for the 5th and 8th place teams. I do see a problem with both teams losing a game for the purposes of training.


if you had weekly balanced like my team you see it maybe the opposite, i make last season -900k in the last three wekks with one game in the PO. And this season my salarys raised another 100k, and i think i am going to play relegation instead of PO this season because of the founds(even it hshould be a ahrd fight to reach it^^)

Perhaps I would. I certainly understand that upper level teams have a much larger salary they have to absorb over these weeks with income lacking.

However, I think it is a simple fix to make sure every team in the first week of the playoffs to get the 3 games that a team normally get for training. I certainly don't think the 5th place team should be punished for finishing 5th as they are now. [I finished 5th my first season here. It is really difficult on any training plan.]

i like those weeks without competition, else you could train stamina freethrow or your guys out of position which i do most times in this cases(i am such a 4-6 place team^^).

Remember how you didn't like my idea from last time? Well, I have it fixed.

8's get RELEGATED.

Two pools are made (below)
Pool 1: Big 8 #5, 7 & Great 8 #6
Pool 2: Great 8 #5, 7 & Big 8 #6

Then, teams compete in a round-robin format.
1st Tuesday - #5 (at home) vs. #6
1st Saturday - #5 (at home) vs. #7
2nd Tuesday - #6 (at home) vs. #7

TO NOTE: Even though one team is playing at home, both teams split the game profits from the arena 50-50. This gives every team 1 game of profit.

The team with the most wins (or largest point margin as TB) is SAFE in both pools.

2nd Saturday - 2nd place team in Pool 1 (at home, according to above) vs. 3rd place team in Pool 2.
2nd place team in Pool 2 (at home, according to above) vs. 3rd place team in Pool 1.

Winner is SAFE, loser gets RELEGATED.

Why should the 5th, 6th and 7th team profit more during this time period than the 3rd and 4th place teams?

[Asking this question knowing full well that the 6th and 7th placed teams already profit more than all but the top teams in the current playoff process.]

The idea of the current system is to have at least 1 team per division relegate unconditionally -- no second chances.


Whose idea? I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but you're making that up.

I think it's a great idea, actually. And not just because I'm a curling fan. This suggestion — not coincidentally, from a Canadian — is simply the Page playoff system (without a final) used in curling tournaments.

The BB team. I am not making this up -- I have brought up proposals for relegation playoff structure that involves the entire bottom four. The answer was that being able to tank for a top pick and avoid relegation at the same time is undesired. Therefore, guaranteed relegation is a must for the league structure to work as desired.

The problem is 8th spot can be even 9th pick in unbalanced divisions. It's rare but it happens sometimes that directly relegating team would make play offs in the other conferences.
