Yesterday i clinched a play-off spot. I had an x in front of my team name!
Since i couldn't win my division anymore i rested my injured starters.
And i lost heavily.
And now i'm out of the play-offs.
How is it possible one day you are a lock and next day out?
A bug or some rules misused by the engine?
Don't know now if i will continue. maybe look for something else.
This is really frustrating :(

Sorry that things didn't work out Jacky. Over in MFN-1 (Beta), we are working on new versions of the engine almost every game. And JDB posts the changes being made. On 1/19/19, JDB posted this changed:
"This update should fix the 3-way tiebreaker bug where when one team was eliminated the tiebreaking procedure did not reset with the other two teams. Please observe the playoff seeding and team standings starting with the next games."

I wonder if you situation was a known bug the JDB is working on correcting? But you weren't in a three way tie, so I don't know.

But it said i got a wild card.
Minnesota was eliminated.
Only in AFC there was a battle between Pit and Cin.
