If you were in division V you would be promoting for certain! You can work it out from that great information from atabakin. Just look at every division IV for the records of teams that wont win their league. The best 8 records will promote anyway. Are you one of them? Easy!

Doesn't it not entirely work this way though? My understanding is that if the team in his conference wins the finals (and they won the 1st game), the finalist from the other conference in his league is in line for bot promotion before he is, even if his team has the better regular season record.

So, it's possible that in addition to anybody who has a better record, he could also be behind any teams that made the finals in other leagues but then didn't win. Which obviously would prevent him from bot-promoting.

I'm not going to say I know this is right for sure, maybe someone can correct me, but I'm pretty sure that is how it works.

Bot promotion for California Supreme, while Zach Squad had to spend another season in D.V.

And I'm like 99% percent sure there was a whole thread a while back (probably 6+ months ago at least) on this phenomenon and the mechanics of bot-promotion wherein this was confirmed by other posters too?

I could certainly be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's not just 'absolute best regular season record'.

Yeah, thanks- It actually may be like in this thread: http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/forum/read.aspx?thr... where someone says that winning your conference is the key (and not how far you go in the playoffs), but the fact remains that you could theoretically finish 21-0 and in 2nd place in your conference and the guy on the other side who won his weaker conference with an 16-6 record would still bot promote ahead of you.

Which I guess works just as well for the original poster, since he did win his conference. But for some people reading and wondering, it might be an important distinction.

I was the one who beat him. Last year he went 22-0 and lost in the semis and did not promote from bot clean up so im guessing he wont this season.
