@Nick The advantage goes to the winner of the head to head match.

Our league is half bot/inactive so an accurate gauge of standings emerges every 1/3 of the season. 2 of the top 4 teams in the Big 8 are inactive with some decent players. Binch resets in two weeks and then Bricksquad the following week. That flips the other conference down the home stretch of the season. Great 8 has 5 active users to the Big's 4, so perhaps ours is at least the more active conference.

I don't know how long the regular leagues have adhered to the Utopian model of 5 teams relegating. That would have major implications on conference strength for the lower leagues like ours.

@Wizz Sadly I wish you were right. Unfortunately, even though I beat the Demon Hoosiers head-to-head, They are still the #1 seed. I looked it up in the game manual, turns out the second tiebreaker after point differential is Points scored.

And thats a very good point I hadn't even noticed the Big 8 was that inactive.

@Nick - Thanks for looking that up.

I was looking up some of the players that will be potentially going on the TL as Free Agents.

From Binch, Knapp (35116686) looks interesting.
From Brickyard, not just based on his name but he's a 18yo PA, Hung Forsythe (42351252).

The 18 year old wouldn't be able to go to the TL because he probably doesn't have 60tsp.

However, I do agree that Knapp looks appealing, I have been curious at his stats for a while.

Binch was close to the upset today. I know Demon is the top on the side of the league but is he really a threat???Questions that have no answers yet

@ETG - Binch has been on autopilot for a month. His roster will reset in 2 weeks, very much in time for the post season.

As for Dem Hoosiers, the one thing that is already proven is that his arena capacity is 19.5K. That bankroll in a bot league is a huge advantage. According to BuzzMan, he leads the league in revenue so far with $762k this season. The runner up is behind by $100k.

i had a grindfest against your conference's #6. I got CT'd, Double GDP'd, on top of being on the road. Was down at half but pulled out a win behind a monster 4th. Great game, Herd. Save some ethusiasm so we could get some bot free playoffs after brickyard and Bing flush out.

@ETG To me I believe everyone is a serious threat unless they are bot or under new management. Thats the way of BB and thats the way of basketball. Thats why you have to be careful of any team. For instance not even I thought I could be top 5 in the league let alone leading my conference lol. That being said I'm sure it won't last, but an example of insanity nonetheless lol.

And also Yet another Tie folks! The two conferences are still tied after two rounds. Six more rounds to go and its still up in the air.
