Teams added to playoffs two weeks before first playoff game.

My league manager brought up a vote to change from a 6 team playoff(top 2 teams have a bye) to an 8 team playoff. The vote TIED and he made the change to an 8 team playoff with his decision as the tiebreaker.
Since then , i clinched the top spot of my division then proceeded to lose to one of the teams that was added to the playoffs. This is a 12 team league, btw.
Now, did I get totally fricked over or what? Has this happened to anyone else.
I would not pay if I hadn't already paid. I definitely won't be playing in their league next year. Changing the rules that big at the end of the season is fricking bushleague.

What is the buy in? What was your total score? Would you have beaten the team you would have played in a 6 team?

sounds like BS
stuff like this should be determined before league play not during it
and i cant stand 8 teams making the playoffs

$40. Losing $40 isn't a big deal, but losing the chance to win it all is.
I would have had a bye this last week. Automatic advanced to 2nd round.
What does total score matter?

I'd keep track of how it should have played out with the original rules. Complete bullshite. Was the commish one of the final 2 in?

How did you lose a bye? With 8 team the top two had to play this weekend?

In a 6 team playoff the top 2 had byes. He went from locked in to the semis to getting knocked out in the quarter finals

Well then yeah I'd be pissed too. But keep track of what would have happened in the original format. You might have lost anyway.

Commish wasn't over of the 2 that made it but he had a shot with the 8 team format.
ETA: the two teams that were added had 6-7 and 5-8 records. Wtf is that. Meanwhile I'm 9-4 and get screwed out of my bye.

Sometimes it is not easy being the manager of a league but this is definitely BS!

this stuff happened in one of my leagues
was top 4 then the week before playoffs, the commish expands to 8 teams without even taking a vote
it was done because he was not in the top 4
safe to say, i dont think people will pay now

This is the correct answer.
There should never be rule changes after the draft. I would be upset and not play again with that dipshit commissioner.

Yeah, that's BS! Odds are he's been talking behind the scenes with one of the team owners and felt he needed to help them make the playoffs. Especially with a horrible record.

That's crap...especially since the vote TIED! no change should have been made.
