League structures with balanced divisional games?

[GiantYankee]

It was suggested that I ask my question in the mods forum. Anyone using a league that has balanced divisional games? My OCD makes it hard to play with leagues that have unbalanced divisional games. Thanks.

From what I can tell, neither of the 22-team league formats are balanced. I think the 20-team one is balanced, because it's based off the OHL from what I've noticed, since I use that for my fictional junior league. Other formats I'm less sure on, so maybe somebody else can better answer that.

In Custom League can not Edit Divisions meaning moving them around like you can in OTTP can only rename Teams and can't add Farm Teams.

I was told the 21-team league schedule (1980 NHL) is balanced throughout the league. Not my favorite but much better than the 24T 84G schedule that is kind of wacky. I'll give the 20 team a shot. Thanks.

Ah, didn't know that about the 21-team format. My only issue for the 20 team league was that it's shorter, and I didn't want to have my pro leagues playing fewer games than the junior league (since that didn't make much sense to me), but it is fairly reliable still. While it may not be perfect balance, at least the division and conference games make more sense. It is something I hope they'll look at for the next game, or later on down the road.
