1st place team left out of playoffs
 

In our AA league, Huntsville won the division but 2nd place Birmingham makes the playoffs instead.

BM Double A Home

It looks to me like you have custom playoffs with the top 4 teams from each league qualifying.

I can't see Birmingham in the playoffs, but can see Binghampton.

Yeah, I mistyped.

It's also happened in AAA:

BM Triple A Home

In this case, Sacramento was left out despite winning their division and having a better record than Tacoma.

Looks like an issue with uneven divisions in the sub-leagues. In both cases the missing teams are from the 'extra' division in the sub-league.

How are your playoffs setup inside the game?

AAA structure has:
2 subleagues
1 subleague has 3 divisions with 4 teams each
1 subleague has 4 divisions with 4 teams each

Rules say Division winners plus wildcard team(s) make playoffs with 1 wildcard per subleague. Must be something there. Since the 4 division league wouldn't have a wildcard winner normally to get 4 playoff teams.

Hmmmmm....wish there was a way to have different rules for each subleague. Subleague 1 should have a wildcard team but subleague 2 should not I guess.

This is something that is going to have to be looked at for v10.

In the meantime, it'll only work if you have the same number of divisions per sub-league.
