OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - BZ 3444: Home field advantage to wrong team in playoffs

Fictional league, latest patch. Custom playoffs, 1st round matchups determined by position, top four teams in the division make the playoffs. First round matchups are 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3. My team finished tied for 1st but was given second place on a tie-breaker [be nice if there was a news story talking about tie-breakers and maybe making a bigger deal out of outstanding regular season records, but that's for another topic]. I defeated the 3rd place team while the #1 club went down to defeat. Second round matchup then is 2 vs 4. As my team finished higher in the standings, I should be the home team, but for whatever reason the #4 club got home field advantage. Other division appears to have the correct home-field situations, as did the first round matchups in both divisions. But here am I on the road again. Bug?
