Playoffs
Format
Modified double elimination.
The top seed gets a "bye" to the first game of the second round. Games 8 and 9 set up the first elimination and give the league champion a way back in the tournament if they lose their first game. The system is weighted to give the top seed a potential of winning the championship in 3 games while most of the seeds would have to win 5 games to win the championship.
