current rule from manifesto:
Playoff Seeding and Tie-Breakers:
When our league converts into playoff mode the system automatically generates a seed for each team in the league based on the regular season results. The seeds determine where the system places each team in the playoffs. The primary factors which determine seeds are:
1. Division Winner(s) --- does not apply to our league.
2. Winning Percentage
In the event that two or more teams have the same winning percentage at the conclusion of the Regular Season, and have played the same number of Head-to-Head games between them, the following tie-breaking system determines the seed:
1 - Overall record *
2 - Head-to-head record
3 - Overall points
4 - Division record ---- does not apply to our league.
5 - Overall points-against
6 - Coin
* NOTE: Overall record is based on winning percentage. Therefore, a team that has more losses than another team might have the same winning percentage.

5 - Coin Flip
We decided to go with how espn does the seeding corecct? (so i imagine this above is what is on the espn site)
also if two teams tied and played each other twice, say one team won 300- 250, and then in the next matchup the other team won 400- - 250, would this be considered a tie or since one team won by a larger amt of pts they would be awarded the higher spot?
