Tiebreakers

If turned off and two teams are tied with same record what is used to break the tie?

If it is head to head what is the next criteria if they are still tied?

If tiebreakers are turned off and the season ends in a tie, the teams share the title. That's because there's no tiebreaker.

there's a hierarchy used, you won't get an extra playoff team. as far as a divisional title, not sure, check mlb.com for that kind of minutiea (wiki links to it, below)

it will defintieyl pick one for reasons other than randomly picking a number out of a hat.

i don't use tie-breaker games.. i'd rather use a larger sample of data than teh volatility associated with 1 game's result. i don't get extra playoff teams.. i don't really care about who wins a divisions, tbh, so i don't look or know if tehy "share" it from a historical record standpoint. if they didn't win teh WS, it's just a trophy for a losing team and i don't really respect that at all, lol.

check OotP manual, maybe it specifically what it uses - most likely tied to real life too.
