_Divisional Matches
The Divisions are as follows
During the divisional match period you will play every opponent in your division.

The champion no matter what record during the Divisional Week will hold the #1 seed going into the Challenge Week because he can only be knocked off as champion during the challenge week. The benefit of being the #2 seed is that you are coming out of the winners bracket and if you lose to the #3 seed in best 2 out of 3 matches then the bracket resets and you will play him again in a final best 2 out of 3 matches. If the #2 seed wins the first 2 out of 3 matches then he moves on. However there is also a 3-way tie no clear Tie Breaker clause.
The lowest 3 seeds in the league will play each other. #6 will play #5 and the winner will play #4. The winner will get an extra win going into the next divisional week. This will allow members to play more matches and will also give them a better opportunity to get a higher seed in divisional play.
