After matches won/lost, is seeding based purely on rounds for, or is it the ratio of your rounds for to your rounds against?

i don't know if i'll be back for playoffs at the moment, but regarding yesterday's news with the loss of miggy, i'm stepping down from AA indefinitely. i wanted to take the time to thank them for giving me a roster spot and keeping my passion alive for tf2 when i thought i had none left. massive love for gloperz, thyko, vhnhjh, bowul, and kutch. even though people might look at them negatively for having a realistic shot to crack top 16 in open with an easy schedule, and saying that they don't deserve to make playoffs at all, all of them have put in so much work this season, and are dedicated to improving every single day. they're all such wonderful people, and i'm honored that i could play alongside them. once again, thank you to AA for giving me another opportunity.

kiaAfter matches won/lost, is seeding based purely on rounds for, or is it the ratio of your rounds for to your rounds against?

According to the posted rules:

Overall record then by
Head to head record then by
Highest amount of regulation rounds won
Single map playoff if all other tie breaker scenarios are indecisive

There is a grey area in these tie-breaker rules because of the small size of the TF2 divisions. Head to head tie-breakers typically only come into play when only 2 teams have the same record. When 3 or more teams have the same record (like this season's 9-7 teams will) the Head 2 Head records cannot advance 1 team ahead of all teams that have the same record because it is extremely unlikely all the tied teams played a round robin against each other.

example with only 1 playoff spot remaining:

Team A, B C and D are all 9-7
Team A beat Team C --- Team B beat Team A --- Team D did not play A B or C
Who advances? No team has a clear advantage over the other 3 teams, so Head to Head is bypassed just about every season because of this scenario.

In these cases, since Head to Head is indecisive, the only way to do the tie-breaker fairly is to skip Head to Head and go right for Rounds Won because that stat is universal for all teams.

If anyone is looking to cast any matches with playoff implications, here are the choices for tonight:

Salty Seamen vs Undecided Team Name

Both teams are in the exact same position. 7-7 with 40 rounds. The winner of this game will likely win their final match and go 9-7 with a really solid chance at 15th or 16th spot.
This match, above all others listed, does the most for playoff implications tonight. Jag's team is the clear pick to win but who knows on Badlands.

OK Kids vs clout up

OK Kids cannot make playoffs but clout up is right in the thick of 15th or 16th. Clout up needs to win every single game left and secure max rounds for any playoff chance. Could be a good match to watch.

Alcohol Anonymous vs StarStruck Gaming

Starstruck cannot make playoffs but AA has a very small chance to make 16th place if they get a lot of help from other match results. Either way, AA need to win this match to go 9-7 and have any chance at all.

These teams all make playoffs already, but they are better quality match-ups for casting IMO.

LWUMMD vs MAD LUX

LWUMMD is in playoffs and MAD LUX could lock up their spot with a win. I expect this match to be very competitive and will clear up a lot of playoff placement once we have a winner.

IWHBYD vs Faint Gaming Blue

Most likely the best / most competitive match of the bunch. Both of these teams should qualify for playoffs regardless of the outcome of this match but some seeding questions could be answered depending on the outcome.

Because they somehow believe that posting irl pics of people makes them not shitcans for doing what their team did in the match.
