 * Hi,
 * i was looking desperately for a easy to use solution like this. First of all,
   i want to thank you for your fine work.
 * I have some problem with the volleyball-scoring, the order of the criteria seems
   to be not correct.
    – the most important thing is the points you get for a win
   in the table – the second thing should be the one sets – the last thing thing
   should be the points you win during a set
 * As it seems, the gravity of sets and the set-points are transposed. I have just
   created a test-site, where i gave in some sample data.
    [http://test.nunatakker.de/?p=69](http://test.nunatakker.de/?p=69)
 * As you can see, Trimmclub is first allthough Gerschede has a better set-ratio.
   Trimmclub has the same points but a better set-point-ratio.
 * Do i have to choose another scoring-model?
 * My settings are:
    GameType: Volleyball ScoringModel: 2-Point-Rule points-format:%
   d:%d / %d:%d Placement: automatic Mode: Standard
 * Thank you for some help in advance!!!
 * Best regards
    Henning

 * If you look around over the last week or two you’ll see that the sorting in standings
   and tie-breakers are a hot topic. There is no one right way as everyone does 
   it differently. The great thing about LeagueManager is that each ‘sport’ file
   can do the sorting how it best serves them.
 * The current volleyball sort order is:
 * points (based on the scoring rule you select as there isn’t a point rule built
   into the volleyball.php file at this point)
    set diff won sets ballpoints diff
   ballpoints
 * With that in mind, the best thing to do is modify the ‘volleyball.php’ file to
   do what you need to do. Everything you need is available, it just needs to be
   ordered properly. There are no meaningful tie-breakers in the system that will
   work for you, that’s what I’m trying to figure out on an overall scale, so if
   two teams end up tied after your three criteria, you might have to add points
   manually (the last column) temporarily until the tie is broken via another match.
 * I’m looking to change the way the ranking works a bit to make it easier for users
   that aren’t interested in getting their hands dirty in php code and it’s something
   that I’m putting a lot of time in on right now.
 * Send me an email – lamontef (at) yahoo (.) com – and we’ll get something that
   will work for you when I can get to it.

 * Thank you for your (very!) fast reply!
    :o)
 * Your description doesn’t match my (untouched) installation.
    Trimmclub has won
   2 games, set-ratio is 4:1, ballpoint-ratio 122:84 Gerschede has won 2 games, 
   set-ratio is 4:0, ballpoint-ratio 102:78
 * Trimmclub is 1st, Gerschede is 2nd, but Gerschede should be first if the order-
   logic would be like you described.
 * I just didn’t touch any files because i have really poor knowledge in php. Thank
   you for your hint with the volleyball-file. I think this will help to push me
   to some solution. It should be possible to fix the problem on my site.
 * Best regards and i’m really thankfull for your work and also for your help!
    
   I’ll close this issue tomorrow, so you may have the ability to post a reply.

 * Can you do a team and match export and send me those files so I can look at them,
   please? My email address is above. Along with it, a screen shot of your league
   preference screen would be helpful just so I can duplicate everything exactly.
   I’ll look at it all and get back to you.
 * Just to confirm, you’re on the latest version of LeagueManager (3.8.8.1) or an
   earlier version?
 * Thanks

 * Hi LaMonte,
    In my case, team separation is made regarding direct result between
   two teams, not goal diff. How can I change this in my table to show correct positions?
 * I talk about soccer, of course, I have a championship, and, I noticed that team
   separation is made alphabetically at teams with the same number of points.
