Sorry Big_Dogs. I am almost certain you need to be the top team in your division in order to be eligible for bot promotion. Since Prairie Dogs are number 1 in the Big 8 ahead or you that would make you ineligible for bot promotion. Once ahead I am almost certain about this, but I couldn't find where it said it specifically to give you a quote, so there is a chance I might be mistaken.

Playoffs, and Promotion and Demotion of Teams

"I've won at every level, except college and pro."


The four top-ranked teams in each conference will make it into the playoffs. There is a one-game elimination match between the 1st- and 4th-ranked teams and between the 2nd- and 3rd-ranked teams in each conference, followed by an elimination match between the two winners. When these champions are decided, the winners from each conference face off in a best-of-three showdown. The winner of the division finals is crowned champion of the division, and is promoted to a higher level of divisions. In divisions VI and lower, both playoff finalists will promote to the higher level of divisions. To keep our community fresh and lively, the next best teams in your division will promote to fill in any Bot-controlled team spots in higher leagues. The league that a team will promote or demote to is random within the division that they are slated to go to.


this is how placings go and through bot cleanup ones that win the most will always go first

First Place Big/Great 8


In divisions 4, there are 128 1st placed Great/Big 8 Teams. In D3, there are only 32. So there is no way you can promote without letting these 128 teams promote with you, no matter of record.


(http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/forum/read.aspx?thr...) 47 teams is also larger then the 32 Great/Big8 first place teams in D3.

look at demotes too. 4*16=64 winners, leacing the other 64 left in dust.

there is literally almost no way a 2nd place team can bot promote, sorry. By next Best BB means place, and record.

What I meant was that I really hope no D3 guys come into my league.

Don't worry were not that tough ;)

I bet not even half of the Div III demotees promote back up in their first season. Other teams have had a couple seasons to get familiar with the league and the competition, while Div III teams take a while(maybe 1/3 of the season). Plus the decreased $$$ they get from attendance really hurts trying to build a roster, and sustain it.

Wow, I hope that is the case. I had a great season but got beat in a brawl in the playoffs. Forza definitely earned their promotion.

Thanks for the (hopefully) good news!
