Overtime rules:
The winner gets a bonus point for each spoil/card they hold at the end of each map. The second player in the rotation gets a +2 bonus if they win the map.
These extra points will be added to the scorebook in the case of overtime.


*Note the chance to boost your playoff team by having a player(s) finish in the top-15 in scoring during the regular season.

Regular season:
I'm looking to fill a 20-team league using some past WNBA franchises to fill it out. Teams will play a 40-game regular season.

Postseason:
The top six teams in each conference will qualify for the playoffs.
Each of the division winners will get a first-round bye.
#3 vs. #6 and #4 vs. #5 will meet in a Best-of-3 series.

Conference semifinals and finals will be played as a Best of 5 series.
The WNBA Finals championship series will be played as a Best of 7 series.

Quick tweak...PG and SG maps are coaches choice. This can be the same for both positions, or you can have two different maps going.

SF -- will be representative of your home city
PF -- will be the USA map that includes your city ... a Divisional style map
C -- remains random.
