Re: Wild Card Spot Reform?

1 seems reasonable, except you're adding another match or more to the playoff schedule, which could ruffle feathers by making things take even longer. Maybe the bronze medal sudden death match happens in the field timeout between F1 and F2? That keeps delay to a minimum, as long as there's no alliance timeouts called or anything.
