The number of division levels can differ from one country to another, based on the total number of users of the country, but the basic structure is always the same:

1 First Division

2 Division 1 (1.1, 1.2)

4 Division 2 (2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4)

8 Division 3 (3.1, 3.2, etc to 3.8)

16 Division 4 (4.1, 4.2, etc to 4.16)

32 Division 5 (5.1, 5.2, etc to 5.32)

64 Division 6 (6.1, 6.2, etc to 6.64)

128 Division 7 (7.1, 7.2, etc to 7.128)

256 Division 8 (8.1, 8.2, etc to 8.256)

512 Division 9 (9.1, 9.2, etc to 9.512)

The season is always 17 weeks, consisting of 30 league rounds (matches are played weekly on Tuesday and Saturday) followed by two off season weeks with no league activity, only National teams world cup, International cups and friendly matches that can be played on Saturdays, Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Only on the first Saturday of the offseason there will be no friendlies because of the qualification games.

There are 16 teams in every division, with each team playing the others twice, thus making a total of 30 rounds. The 4 teams that finish last in their series are automatically relegated, except for teams that are playing in the lowest division.

The relegated teams' places will be taken by the first two classified teams from the divisions on the lower level.

Teams classified between the 9th and the 12th positions will play a single qualification match on Saturday of the 16th week of the season, against one of the team classified in the 3rd or 4th spot in the division directly below his own. The team coming from the division above has home advantage.

The ranking for qualifications matches is based on, in order of importance: position, points, points difference and points scored.

Debotification

We will have an automatic debotification at the end of each season. This means that all teams without an owner will be erased from the standings. Everything will count through, so it might happen that you were 8th in division 4 or even lost your qualification match and still promote. We do this to keep the leagues full of real users, so they are more competitive, but also much more fun!

After the promotion/relegation, bot teams in high division are replaced by user teams.

Example :

div1 : 16 users

div2 : 2 bots / 30 users

div3 : 10 bots / 54 users

div4 : 20 bots / 108 users

The process is :

- 2 bots in div2 so search for 2 best teams in div3 according to performance (league position, points, wins, avg, scored) this season.

- 10 bots in div3 so search for 10 best teams in div4 according to performance (league position, points, wins, avg, scored) this season.

Then, you have :

div1 : 16 users

div2 : 32 users

div3 : 2 bots / 62 users

div4 : 30 bots / 98 users

There is still bot in div3 and users in div4 so :

- 2 bots in div3 so search for 2 best teams in div4 according to performance (league position, points, wins, scored, avg) this season.

After whole debotification :

div1 : 16 users

div2 : 32 users

div3 : 64 users

div4 : 32 bots / 96 users

The debotification will take place in the day 3 (Sunday) of week 16.

You don't have to confuse it with the Bot Reset. Such a reset is made twice each season: Before the first match of the season and after the 15th round. When the reset is made, all owner less teams will receive new starting players that will play in all future matches, until the team is assigned to a human player.

Division Hardiness

Division Hardiness is calculated on the last Friday before the new season starts. It is calculated by looking at the top 10 player salaries of each team in your division.

Standings

Standings of teams in a division are made according to their win-loss records, namely 2 points for each game won, 1 point for each game lost and 0 (zero) points for a game lost by walkover.

If there is a tie between 2 or more teams, the following system is taken into account:

P = points : It's just like Pts, 2 for each win against one of those teams and 1 point for a loss against one of those teams you are tied with. If you haven't played any of those teams yet you have 0.

P +/- is plus minus just like +/- except its only for games played against those teams you are tied with.

End of season prizes

The prizes are the same for each country. The only difference is based on the final position of the team.
