With only 1 game left in the leage(claymore 2,1) I'm on a sure 2nd place. In other regions of the leage teams with less wins allready made the playoffs, why am I not in the playoffs then??!!!

Theoretically could two 8-7 team with blowout wins and a loss of your team better than your team. But this is not realisic and you can plan with your spot in the playoffs.

From the manual League

Who will enter the playoffs?
The winner of each division and the best 2 runner-ups per conference are fighting for the bowl.


So currently you are #1 runner up in the AC conference. So if you keep the position (or drop only 1 position) after the last gameday, you'll be in the playoffs

Buffalo is right, the points difference is huge, something like 222 points.
So, unless you're planning on losing 0-111 and the other closest team (Panthers) plays 'Match of the Millennium' for a 112-0 win ..... you're in the playoffs .... 99.999% certain

Still not sure because of the mixed replies. But thanks all for the info. Guess I'll be playing the playoffs !


Only thing that is strange to me is the following:

On the bottom ofmy leage window I see
x - Clinched playoff, y - Clinched Wild Card, z - Clinched Division, * - Clinched Division and Homefield Advantage

All Divions have their winner marked with z, best one has *.

There are 2 teams marked x:
-Tacloban10w 5l (is only team on 2nd place with better or equal w/l)

-Panthers 8w 7l ,highest in points difference of 3 with that w/l

I'm on 9w 6l with 200+ points difference and 24+ TD compared too Panthers, but no x-mark behind my team?

In your conference, there are teams that can tie your record thus making PD important and anything can happen. In the other conference, those two teams don't have any others that can tie their record.
