A note on vote counting this season...
Sorry for the wait on this post, the votes were a bit messy this time - but we're improving on that for future seasons! There are no player statistics this time, sorry.
As in previous seasons, votes were counted using Instant-Runoff Voting (IRV). New this season, if an IRV count ended in a tie, the result was decided by comparing the number of first-preference votes each tied candidate received on the original ballots, rewarding the candidate with the stronger initial support. If candidates remained tied after this, they were recorded as a shared recipients. This eliminated seven tied recipients, and brought the number of ties down to eleven. We've added "FP" next to each tie to indicate how many first-preference votes a player received.

3 Div Format
Whilst we typically tend to avoid 4 team divisions, in this instance it made sense to do so after reviewing alternatives with the advisory team. Intermediate teams are now vastly unrestricted and can upgrade their rosters to field a more competitive lineup. Additionally, open division becomes substantially more competitive with the removal of THE METHOD and Rich and Grootus. While premier teams will all be fairly evenly footed with the removal of six seven and Rat Children from the division.
Season Length
Prem and Inter will both have 6 week seasons with each team playing other teams twice. While open will have a 5 week season where each team plays other teams once.
Prem / Inter Schedule:
Week 1: pl_vigil_rc10, koth_product_final
Week 2: pl_upward_f12, koth_warmtic_f10
Week 3: pl_swiftwater_final1, koth_ashville_final1
Week 4: cp_steel_f12, koth_proot_b6c-alt2
Week 5: pl_borneo_f2, koth_product_final
Week 6: pl_vigil_rc10, koth_ashville_final1
Standard Finals (Top 4 Teams).
Open Schedule:
Week 1: pl_vigil_rc10, koth_product_final
Week 2: pl_upward_f12, koth_warmtic_f10

2 Divisions!
A return to form, the decision was made to create 2 divisions once again. While we do have quite a few teams who hover between both Premier and Main, many complaints have been made previously when divisions only had 4 teams. From these complaints, we decided to avoid this option and opted for teams to have more variety in opponents via a 6/8 split.
Progression of the Season
Premier will be having a 5 week season, where each team will verse each other once. While Main will have a 7 week season, where each team will verse each other once. Main will have a standard final with the top 4 teams moving into Page Playoffs. Premier will be doing AFL finals with all 6 teams making it through, thereby allowing a longer season with more opportunities for improvement and adaptation.
LAN Extension
During Round 4 (18th and 19th of July), LAN will be on so teams will have an extra week to play their game but we ask that you stay on top of the organisation and have it sorted by the normal deadline.
