there should never be a tie for a playoff spot - the correct way to determine seedings is Wins and Points For ONLY (using decimals). If you use that method, you'll potentially never have a tie. Head to Head should be the third tiebreaker & only as a last resort, not the 1st - that's where your confusion is coming in - you're doing it bassackwards.
I think with it being 3 teams with the same record the head to head records get throw out even though all 3 teams played against each other twice. So it goes right to points scored. What league is this? WWU Dynasty?
Yes this is WWU Dynasty. The playoffs don’t start for another few weeks but I want to make sure if this happened after week 14 I could have the correct 4 teams in the playoffs
I think if there are 3 people with the same record it will go by most points scored. I get your math then breaking it down head to head to head with each other but I think it will go by most points scored.

3 teams tied for one playoff spot
Our tiebreaker rules are
1) head to head record
2) most points scored
3) and 4) don’t matter in this case
Team A is 0-2 vs Team B
Team A is 1-1 vs Team C
Team B is 1-1 vs Team C
In this case Team B is 2-0 vs Team A and should clearly be on top of the tie breaker.
My only thought was if Team C had to be above Team B and Team C couldn’t be above Team A this would cause a 3 way tie issue but it doesn’t.
Can anybody help or explain?

With it being a 3 way tie I think head to head doesn’t matter so then it goes right to most point scored.

In theory Team B should be on top though correct? Has to be a way to honor the #1 tie breaker

Can I manually change the seedlings once the playoffs start? There has to be a way to honor the #1 tie breaker

If you click on the playoffs in the league tab and scroll to the bottom it shows you how all the tiebreaks work out.
