Hello Community,
I have been put in charge (someone volunteered me) of a baseball tournament. I created the attached excel spreadsheet to track wins, losses, ties and official tiebreaker rules. However, I am unable to figure out the second tie break rule (head to head) and how to apply it properly without affecting other areas.
Here are the rules I followed below. Basically it only applies the next rule if there is still a tie after the previous. Rule 5, head to head, is supposed to be the second rule, but since I couldn't figure it out I had to move it to 5 and what would have been manual. Head to head would only apply when those two teams played each other and have the same win percentage.
Official Tie Breaker Rules
*Each only applied if tied before
1 Overall Won - Loss record
2 Runs Allowed
3 Run Differential
4 Total Runs Scored
5/2 Head to Head - supposed to be second tie breaker
6 Coin Flip
I have attached the file with the various tabs I used. If you look at the Silver ranking, this is where all the data is crunched. The Silver Games scores is actual data and I collected everything on Overall data.
As a side question, is there a better and easier way that is more intuitive for the over all data? It is busy for sure. I also couldnt get it to do the Tie right. I have to manually input the tie. Any tips for making easier or cleaning would be appreciative.
The priority is how to make head to head my second tie breaker.
