lol, I had the exact same idea as this:
"At this point, instead of forwarding you to the pending or enlisted state, 48 players will be required to sign up for the war."
-
"The gist of it is that, the harder you fight in quality matches, the more likely you are to end up in a higher place while breaking a tie. "
In my understanding this means that if you WG your opponent that counts lower as a proper match? This however does not explain that why did blng end up lower than AFSx and BAWC

This made me confused:
"The first is that we didn't have enough Qualifier rounds for this test cycle. In retrospect, we would have had at least three. Season 01 is intended to be 10 rounds total, and there should be a lot of movement by Outfits up and down the scoreboard. Due to the current two-match qualifications this time around, however, some Outfits who have been fighting hard may end up getting cut by the ones that got a "bye" due to no-shows."
Dont we have 6 matches in the qualifications, 3 in playoff and 1 in finals?

i am also more riddled than enlightened.. ???

From the way he writes it to me it seems there are only two qualifying matches.
EDIT: so if Bling don’t change positions on the board after the next match they could in theory get knocked out of OW? Don’t think it’ll happen as I’m sure they’ll move up but it would be hilarious if they did.
-
Plant i thought the same, should we let spaniards win just to increase the chances of blng falling out? :D (just joking)
What i really like in his post is the big middle finger for the people who want more details on the system just to find an exploit in it. It would be good to know the exact details of the ranking of course, but i think we can live without it if it means less chance for the exploit knights of blng
-
Knowing our luck bling would get through and we’d get kicked out!
I’m sure if there are exploits that they’re worried about to the point of not telling us how any of the matchmaking works then I’m sure someone will figure it out and we’ll have the same mess as last two Outfitwars.

On one hand that is true, however i still count the system as work in progress and give the devs more time to hammer out the details.
On the other hand im not even sure if it is possible to come up with a system which does not get exploited sooner or later
