Hmmm...by my calculations, it should take 14 or 15 games to whittle down 8 teams to 1 in a double-elimination tournament, and 6 or 7 to whittle down 4 teams to 1 in a double-elimination tournament. (So it would take 12-14 games for 2 such brackets). I see games 13 and 14 are declared "if necessary."

So it would appear that the final two teams play best two-of-three for the championship rather than the WOL having to beat the WOW twice or the WOW having to beat the WOL only once in a two game set.
