**REPOST FOR POST #159**
So seems like there is support for expanding playoffs, but there may not be support for bottom 3 lottery.

So votes can alter to...

A) Toilet Bowl
B) Expand Playoffs to 6 teams
C) Rules Committee
D) Other

The main thing is that Playoff expansion NEEDS to go head 2 head with Toilet Bowl b/c they are both proposed to fix tanking. After that then the Playoff Expansion all the other details (home field, bottom 3 lottery, double headers, etc.) will go through further vote.

The big thing is that Playoff Expansion and Toilet Bowl go against each other in the same vote, as playoff expansion will increase competitiveness (as Popes and Ragers see) w/o sacrificng the worst teams get the best picks.
