Top and bottom groups rounds[edit]

@Deancarmeli, The regular season consists of 24 games for a team that take place in *26 rounds*.
That’s why the top and bottom League group games start in the 27th round. The upper house consists of five games that run in five rounds (27-31) and the lower house consists of six games that run in seven rounds (27-33)
.

That is irrelevant. seeing, for example, a position at round 28 when all teams have played but 26 games is either confusing, meaningless, or both. Deancarmeli (talk) 17:44, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is actually relevant. Since this year the league consists of 13 teams. in each round there was one team that did not play. Similarly in the lower house which consists of 7 teams, in each round there will be one team that will not play. Accordingly, the ranking according to the game rounds shows the position of all the teams including the team that did not play at the end of the round. On the other hand, showing their position by the game number - leave a different team each time behind, Which makes it difficult to calculate the position, because until the same team plays the missing game, there will be other teams that will already play another game..
Moreover, since you are displaying the position by round as shown in the title and not by game played, you will display the table according to the rounds set by the league. This is also how things appear on the league website when you filter the table according to rounds. Nimrodbr (talk) 18:04, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Nimrodbr: No problem.
The tables header will change from Team ╲ Round to Team ╲ Games played and the section will be renamed Positions by games played in the Top-teams League Group section. From the Bottom-Teams League Group, it will be removed. Agreed? Deancarmeli (talk) 18:24, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree to the change. But in my opinion tracking the position is more interesting in the lower house when there is a deeper meaning to the position (qualifying for the playoffs or relegation) than in the upper house where everyone qualifies and it only determines who they will play against.

I agree that the information is more interesting for the Bottom Teams Group, but with teams having a different amount of games in each round it's somewhat meaningless. Deancarmeli (talk) 18:32, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's not exactly meaningless. Since the position display is according to the rounds. Therefore, their position is determined both by the ability they display in games and in the round they do not play according to the abilities of the other teams as it is in reality.
