+The team that won the IBL Championship will be placed in tier 3.  If the

+[Rationale] Gives everyone a stake in the timely completion of the playoffs.
+The lottery can still be run earlier so teams that are locked into tier 0

+Change in Section 5.2.2 IP Penalties for Late Game Reports and Box Scores
+from:
+*   -1 to the home team for every week of outstanding results at the
+conclusion of a real-time off week
+*   -1 to the home team for every outstanding GRS, box score, or
+scoresheet at the conclusion of a real-time off week
+to:
+*   -1 to the home team for each week that results have been outstanding
+for two calendar weeks or more
+*   -1 to the home team for each week that a GRS, box score, or scoresheet
+has been outstanding for two calendar weeks or more
+*   -1 to the home team per item outstanding at the conclusion of a
+real-time off week, in addition to any other late penalties
+[rationale] Currently the rules only allow penalties to be applied after
+real-time off weeks.  This is problematic for two reasons: 1) teams can get
+several weeks behind between off weeks with no penalty, and 2) it requires
+that we schedule off weeks with short intervals.  This change means a team
+cannot be more than 1 week behind at any point in the season without incurring
+penalties, while maintaining the expectation that everything should be caught
+up after our off week.  It also gives us more flexibility regarding the
+frequency of off weeks scheduled during the season.
