Default Playoff Expansion - 6 or 4 teams?

Hey guys just wondering thoughts on playoff expansion?

Currently we send 3 division winners and 1 wild card to playoffs.

I think it would be great for the league to expand to 6 teams playoffs (3 division winners/3 WC) as it will increase league activity during the year. With more teams able to make the playoffs means there will be more buyers than sellers in the trade market. This means trades to help contenders and the lottery teams. It also will keep owner interest longer if they know they have a chance at playoffs deeper into the year, which indirectly curbs against tanking.

The only downside is.... changing the status quo.

This is just an informal vote to see if it is worth discussing ways to implement playoff expansion.

I would be in favor of playoff expansion to 6 teams AND keeping the the Week 16 championship. This would mean we'd either cut the regular season short 1 game or else we can play a double header (ideally 2 non-division games) for one week.

Looks like we passed expansion in both the Frenzy and SAC'd. I just wanted to make sure that everything is set-up systematically here as it appears Burt had to do some stuff on the SAC'd side.

... I never even voted on this (don't remember it being posted).
So if it has passed... then what needs to take place? I guess we need to change the schedule? "Help me Ob-Burt-won... you're my only hope!"
