12. Tie-Breakers
12.1 In the event that two or more teams have the same win/ loss record (or a number of points) at the conclusion of the round-robin or cross-over matches, the higher placed team will be decided by applying the following WFDF Ranking Criteria and Tie Breakers rules:
12.2 After round-robin pool play, rank all teams in each pool by the number of games won. If teams are tied, break that tie using the ranking criteria.
12.3 Each ranking criterion is used to rank all of the tied teams, not just to determine the highest-ranked team.
12.4 If, after the application of a ranking criterion, all of the teams remain tied, go to the next criterion. 
12.5 If not all teams remain tied, but one or more subgroups of the teams remain tied, separate these subgroups from the ranking. Each subgroup is then to be ranked separately, starting with the first ranking criterion.
12.6 Ranking criteria, in order:

12.6.1 The number of games won, counting only games between the teams that are tied.
12.6.2 Fewest games forfeited.
12.6.3 Goal difference, counting only games between the teams that are tied.
12.6.4 Goal difference, counting games against all common opponents.
12.6.5 Goals scored per game, counting only games between the teams that are tied.
12.6.6 Goals scored per game, counting games against all common opponents.
12.6.7 Each team nominates one player to throw one disc from behind the goal line to the far brick point on a regulation playing field. Throwing order is determined randomly, by disc toss or otherwise. Teams are ranked in order by the distance from the resting place of each disc to the brick point, from closest to furthest
