you are right the most logical thin to do is take away the money from the 6-7 that will fix the money problem i am not sure this will be the best way to try and make things on even ground but it is a start on thinking on stuff to do

we still have the extra one week training problem that the one above you have suggested a solution and it sound like a good one for me

As I mentioned in the other 5th place thread, real sports teams throw games so why not in Buzzer beater. It's all strategy and being aware of whats best for your team.

Yes being in 5th sucks, yes you don't get an income, but also yes teams can see this coming and if they really don't want to be "safe" in 5th they can take actions to avoid being stuck in their current predicament.

Cuzittt and Josef Ka are totally right. I have been ranked 3º and I am going to be eliminated in the 1º round. My playoff income will be something like 30-40k that its not much better than the fifth ranked will get.

rank 6th and 7th however risk the relegation,and the next season rise up again it's not so easy,especially in the highest division of biggest championship(take a look to the level of some italian III division).They have more incomes,but also more dangers than other teams,so i think it's not so fair to reduce incomes for teams who plays playout
The probelm is for the teams which arrives 5th(and also 8th),which don't have any incomes in these weeks
So I think that gave him the incomes of scrimmage generated by the system between the two 5th teeams and the two 8th teams could be fair(scrimmage with the few public of the normal scrimmages,with incomes divivde between the two teeams).It could be fair for every team

Its the teams at the top that are going to struggle to maintain the gap between them and the chasing pack so i would agree that a tapered reward system with the cash from 6th/7th place being distributed mainly to the 1st seed but give a little also to the 5th placed teams too.. i would hate to come across as being unfair.

In my series, 3 teams tried to get placed as 6th. Because of this someone team which was clearly the worst ended as number 7. And those two teams pushed my team and another team respectively to place 5 and 4, while they're teams were much better. And it actually seems to be a lot better to finish as number 7 than number 5.

Fully quote the proposal to play a game between the teams classified in 5 position, this can guarantee a minimum amount.

there was the same problem in my div :) because in the other side in the table 7th place is bot :) ( maybe guy got ban or smth I don't care) so there was three teams who wanted 6th place and that bot in qualifications. so in the end of the season we lost as many games as we could :) so I got that 6th place I am much happier than that guy in 5th place It is fact

I guess some of you are overlooking the purpose of relative benefits for 6th-7th places - faciliating the process of closing the gap between newer/weaker teams and original/traditional powerhouses in particular countries. The game needs to be open this way to make contending possible over a time. BB is a strategic game - feel free to use what rules give you to rise to the top. It is up to you how. If you want to take the risk sometimes, do it but nothing is guaranteed (including badly executed tanking and ending at 5th "the most horrible it-has-to-be-changed" place).
