Think about it this way then.
ID is 5 games over .500
THOTA is only 4 games over .500
Would a clan who currently sits at 1-0 be top spot? (rhetorical question)
You can rectify the situation in your current matchup. Let your games do the talking.

and 3rd place team says 11-8 and only 1 game back???????
it should be more than 1 game back from 12-7, say the 12-7 team lost, and is now 12-8, that is 1 game, but still better than 11-8, so it should be at least 1.5 from the 12-7 record
and 11-8 would be even more back then a 7-3 record.

12-7 vs 11-8, if the second team wins, being 1 back is now even. 12-8 and 12-8. It's only a full game if the teams are playing each other.

No. Baseball assumes 50/50 split. As was said, by your logic a team that is 1-0 would be in first place.
Right now, Dragoons have 5 more wins and 4 more losses than THOTA. Meaning THOTA should be a half game behind, as they are.
The standings are correct, but who cares? It only matters who is on top at the end. If THOTA is that concerned with their current place, perhaps they can finish off a few more games?

Concur, tho I think you're being a bit harsh. After all, those week 2 games against the BYE clan are taking foreeeeeeeever.
