I have to admit the manual and the Champ of Champs Scheduler differ from each other

It should be like this:

The League Bowl winners enter this competition, and needed spots are filled with bots.

It is like this:

The Bowl participant enter the competition, and needed spots are filled with bots.

Since the CoC games start late in the season, we have some time to make a decision here. Please vote:

10 stars: keep it as it is, change the manual, and let both Bowl participants enter the Champ of Champs competition

1 star: change the behavior of the scheduler so it works as described in the manual.

I will run this poll until 18th of December 2011. Votes by managers that are affected won't count - I will remove them on the 18th...

i will admit that i am still trying to grasp how things should work so forgive me if i have misunderstood , on the topic of champs of champs bowl games . i do not see the reason for any bots being in on a championship bowl game, if there is a worthy runner up human owned team.

This was made to avoid any "infights"...imagine we have one Bowl winner less than needed. Now we pick 1 runnerup.. what are the criteria? What will the other 23 runnerups think? This is why bots are added

Bute I am open for any other suggestion.

Pete, I read this in the manual:

1)"The Champ of Champs competition is dedicated to those teams that won their League Bowl the season before."

and further:

2)"The last two teams that survived this fight will play the Champ of Champs Bowl."

To 1) Only the Bowl Winner enter the CoC
To 2) Both Bowl participants will enter the CoC

That contradicts itself. And have to be corrected.

I suggest: Let the scedule, as it is. Its a hard way to climb the bowl and the Runner Up is worth to play in the CoC.

But, did the CoC in Season 3 will be played with the League 1 and the League 2 Champions? My opinion is, that only the League 1 Champions should be qualified for the CoC. This CoC is an exeption, cause we had no team in League 1 last season. In this case, there will are 16 teams in the CoC race next season.

I'm OK with the schedule this year.

For Season 3 and further, I would suggest to Pick Winners and Runners Up of 1.1 and Winners of 2.X... You would have 32 Teams without picking Bots

i believe a simple point system based off of (Offense rating (1-16) would account for 15% of overall grade / Defense rating (1 -16) would account for 15% of overall grade / Special Teams rating (1-16) 15% of overall grade / Strength of Schedule would account for 50% of overall grade / maybe a activity rating would account for 5% of overall grade given) could work. just a question how many teams are invited to the champion bowl game ? and how many leagues are involved ?

Based on 17 valid votes - the others were put by participating teams and therefore invalid - we will keep the schedule as it is, and check the manual again for mistakes on this topic.
