Glad I searched the forum. before I asked essentially the same question. Thank you for the answer.
In my case, after 162 I finished tied for the division lead against a whale, 4th overall. Lost the one-game playoff for the division, and then proceeded to lose against an inferior second WC team that didn't waste their ace and pen on a 163rd game. So, it's Stone for a second time.
And sadly, it'll almost certainly be Stone for a 3rd season.
My team appears to be tied for 2nd overall with 3 players ABOVE gold-level, though all mine are diamond and others have a perfect or two. How many does the best team have? 21! — 18 diamond and 3 perfect, i.e. as many perfect cards as anyone else has diamonds-PLUS-perfects. And AGAIN, that whale is in my division. At least this season there won't be a pointless game 163 to weaken my team. Sigh.
