I made this website for Kahuna Events and help them with some communication services:

Still pretty early days but we sync with hot results and allow you to find the schedule / results for a team.

PS We also have links to the OneDrive :slight_smile:

Well, we have one tournament that averages out to $1,250 per team to enter and we have a second tournament that averages out to $750 per team to enter

Mission took Platinum finale over SJ Xpress (16 - 8)

SoCal won the winter Classic.

Let’s explore.

Three way tie. You have to get the 3rd place out first based on goal differential then it’s head to head score.

Del Mar +5
SoCal +3
Vanguard -8

Vanguard 3rd.

Then head to head SoCal beat Del Mar so yes. SoCal wins!

Edit:

Let me clarify. Since all teams won their games in regulation you have a three way tie based on points (4 for win, 3 for shootout win, 2 for shootout loss, 1 for loss). All teams are tied with 5 points. The way USAWP does three way ties is to break the three way tie through goal differentials first, with the bottom team falling out of consideration. Then it becomes a two-way tie. In two-way ties you have to look at the head to head result first.

I believe in a three way tie, first place is determined first, not third place determined first. The rules are vague as written but I’ve only seen goal differential select a first place, not a third place.

I know what the rule says. I’ve been in this type of 3-way tie at many, many tournaments. The way I’ve explained it is how it’s been done at the major tournaments, including JOs. It has cost me advancements into the top 12 and instead have had to play in the 21-24 bracket at JO.
