How to hold the playoffs until you release them

Normally, teams are placed in the playoffs as soon as pool play ends. If you’d rather check the standings first, for example to settle a protest or correct a score, hold the playoffs. Teams stay out of the bracket until you release them, and from then on the playoffs follow the standings again.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event to turn the hold on, and to manage its results to release the playoffs.
• The hold is a standings setting, so it applies per division when the divisions use different settings.

Steps

1. In your event’s planner, click 设置 at the bottom of the sidebar.

   

2. Open the 积分榜 tab.

   

3. Turn on 季后赛在发布前暂缓.

   

4. Click 保存所有设置更改. The schedule isn’t affected.

   

5. When pool play is over and the standings are right, click 积分榜 in the planner’s sidebar.

   

6. Select the division if your event has several, then click 发布季后赛.

   

7. Confirm. To tell the division’s players, first tick 通知此组别的球员（推送和电子邮件）.

   

8. Teams are placed in the playoffs from the current standings. The button now reads 同步季后赛种子排名, which places them again after a later change to the standings.
