EBEL problems with playoff dividing line and format

[PhilHell37]

Hi!


First of all: Thank you for this great game! Purchased it about a month ago (my first of the FHM series) and can not stop playing

Now, I decided to start a campaign with my favourite team in EBEL. However, I came across some issues.


1) I read that in version 6.6.68 following issues were fixed:
"-fixed playoff dividing line in the EBEL league standings screen
-reversed order of the Qualifikationsrunde and Platzierungsrunde on the EBEL autoplay screen so the higher level is on the left"

However, both those fixes seem not to be working in my game... See image...The line should be after the fifth place, not the sixth place (top-5 qualifiy for pick round).





2) Playoff format: The playoff tree in the game is not generated correctly. The game merges the points from pick and qualification round to determine the fnal regular season ranking. That's bit unfair though: The teams of quali round face weaker opponents and play two more games than teams in pick round.

However, in real llife the team that finishes first in qualification round is ranked 6th overall.

So, to put it in a nutshell, following would be more realistic quarterfinal matchups (considering that "picking" your opponent is not possible).

- 1st place Pick Round vs 3rd place Quali Round
- 2nd place Pick Round vs 2nd place Quali Round
- 3rd place Pick Round vs 1st place Quali Round
- 4th place Pick Round vs 5th place Pick Round


3) In real life the teams don't bring all their points from the regular season with them to pick/qualification round. From the official rule book: "Phase 2a): “Pick-Round”:
The teams placed first to fifth of Phase 1 will play a round robin amongst them to decide the placements for the play-offs. The Points from the regular season will not be taken along.

The first placed team receives four bonus points, the second-placed team receives two bonus points, the third-placed team receives one bonus point, the fourth- and fifth-placed team will not receive bonus points.

Phase 2b): “Play-Off Qualification”:
The teams from place six on after Phase 1 play a round robin amongst them to decide the three final play-off-spots. The points from Phase 1 will not be taken along.

The sixth-placed team receives eight bonus points, the seventh placed team receives six bonus points, the eight-placed team receives four bonus points, the ninth-placed team receives two bonus points and the tenth-placed team receives one bonus point. The eleventh-placed team will not receive bonus points."


Any chance this point system can be one day implemented in the game?


Have a nice day and thanks for any help.
