Alright I've run into it again. So I'm rolling along in my league nicely and sure enough a 3-way tie happens. Cool np I've been using the tie-breaking method LGO taught me.

Well here is where OOTP is frustrating me. If you use the MLB real tie breaker system you arn't able to adance to the playoffs if one scenerio occurs.

If 3 teams are tied they get labeled A,B, and C. B plays at A the first day then C goes on the road to play the winner of A and B. The winner of that 2nd game gets the playoff spot.

Well that works fine in OOTP UNLESS team C wins the tiebreaker.

For some reason it seems that OOTP won't advancce to the playoffs if 2 teams have the same number of W's. The 2 teams have different Win percentages but it keeps trying to schedule another game if one team is 89-74 and the other is 89-75.

The game tells me after the 2nd game the team that is 89-74 and has a better win % has clinched but when I hit finish today it goes on to schedule another game and refuses to advance to the playoffs.

I really find it hard to believe that ootp can't tell the tie is borken when 1 team is 89-75 and the other is 89-74 with a better W%. The only thing I can think of is that ootp is looking at total number of W's and not W% which is totally unacceptable.

Can anyone think of any work arounds?

This is very close if not totally game-breaking for me.
