Title: Tie-breaker
Post by: Pidpad on February 10, 2011, 12:42:36 AM
I'm about as certain as I can be what the tie-breaker is.

TD difference.

With 13 divisions finished in OCC season 7 this has been the pattern in all cases where there's been a tie on points (including a 4-way tie).
No team has had the same amount of points and TD difference so far, but I'll keep an eye out for that as well.

at match day 4 I think me and Krim was at the same amount of + TD but I had a done more and also let in more.
Maybe that was the reason I was under him?

Just giving you the info I thought about.

Very nice your are trying to sort this out Pidpad.

Yeah, I know I read some thread on the Cyanide boards recently where "Enarion" stated that the tie breaker is currently TD-difference. Can't seem to find it now...

Anyways, TD difference is a very good tiebreaker IMO, so I'm not 100% positive that we should stick with our own win% defined TB. Though, we are in fact using the in-game clients TB anyways when ties occur in promotional situations...

That said, we've found a case where TD difference wasn't the tie-breaker, but just one so far.

;D  ;D  ;D

There you have it! As soon as you think you have the answer, the Evil Voodoo Software Programming of Cyanide strikes right back at ya!

I think it is the alignment of the planets that is the real TB... Just my educated guess  :P
