Hi, we have a league of 10 teams broken into 2 divisions of 5 teams. For the playoffs, we select the top 3 teams in each division (using FleaFlicker's built-in tie breaker settings), but keep the divisions segregated on opposite sides of the bracket. As such, team #2 and #3 in a given division play each other, and then the winner plays team #1 of that same division. The winners from each division bracket then play in the championship game.
Is there a way to have FleaFlicker automatically seed the bracket this way? Our league manager has been having to do this manually for years (FleaFlicker instead just tries to take the top 6 overall teams from the whole league to seed into a bracket);
I think you can manually adjust it but it's wonky. Go into the playoffs and find the bracket. You can then set the #1 seed, who would play the winner of the #4v#5 game, and the #2 seed would play the winner of the #3v#6 game. Just keep 1, 4 and 5 from one division and 2, 3 and 6 from the other. Be sure in your playoff setup you have "no" clicked on the question "reseed after each round". I think that should do it.
