I guess the real question is who the fourth qualifying team is going to be. Personally I am cheering for Dalfort and Legends in their Own Lunchtime to catch up on the three point difference to the 4th ranked team. I see an amount of about 8 teams still having a shot, It's certainly gonna be close. |

The OP is updated with the scores as it stands. Movement slows as we near the end of the contest, but for the first time (I think?), we have a standalone top four with no ties for fourth place. Can anyone crack into the playoffs at the expense of Joe le Taxi, Waterbowl, Team Fantastic or the Strangelove company from NA?
Stay tuned!
I'll do some Picks before I go away, I hope I'll get time! Some great fixtures available, once again. |

Yep, we'll use the teams as they ended the tournament.
Good point though, some races get better or worse on different days. In the future, we might look at playoff skills. |

I may be wrong, but I think azzroag was referring to the teams of coaches. And afaik, the answer there is that the team competition doesn't include the playoffs. |

Go with a Geordie Bowl style reversal and take a day's skills off per round |

OK, if the question is how do the playoffs for the Team Challenge work; the top four teams playoff in semi finals and a final. Each fixture is 6 v 6 (or as close as possible if we have teams of 4 or 5), and games feature overtime. In the event of a 3-3 (or I suppose 2-2) tie, the fixture between the captains wins the day.
Should be a rather fun competition! |

I believe it's captain vs captain, all the rest is randomly matched.
If a team has less than 6 coaches, some coaches of the other team will randomly not be scheduled and won't get to play.
Something I have been wondering about for a while now is what happens with coaches who have to play individual and team finals at the same time.
This is usually rather a problem in the way tournaaments work on fumbbl..
Also kinda would have me gessing in a live tournament. |

i have your answer : if a player is qualified for team and individual play off he have to create another team (the same than the other one) and apply to the 2 groups |

You're both right. Captain v captain and then random, and then as per the PM, make another team if you qualify for two things. |

I did, but English is not everyone's first language. So saying captain v captain, then random again harms no one. |
