updated the rules a little bit

PLEASE notice....

hopefully these T's continue---

and RULEs are important-

I have been trying to write the rules - so they can be used in the future--

I made some updates and I MOVED THE ETIQUETTE rule up from the bottom closer to the top--

becasue it is important--

THANK YOU..

much as I hate to say it...

...but, shouldn't I be in third place..?  

In a tie, the player who won their match has the advantage (or something along those lines)?

if theres a tie theres always

a quick few game playoff for the position... it may get really complicated to try to judge it based on who beat who beat who .

think that should come about moreso when the numbers are tallied.. dont necessarilly have to sweat it yet until everything is wrapped

If there is a tie...

One idea that hasn't been suggested and I know it is used in some other sports tournaments, treat it as a round of 16 and the top placed players from the round robin get a bye during that round. For example if 4 players are tied for eighth. 8th plays 9th, 7th plays 10th and 6th plays 11th. All other players above these players get a bye until that round is complete. Sorting out the order for the tied players in this scenario could be random or by any of the methods discussed already. That way two players who have the same number of wins both get a chance to progress.

good observation serve

I agree with you-

because we are NOT done - I just went with the sort- and did not spend time manually moving-

the sort does not distinguish individual matches- ( in the end I would do that)

good to point that out at this point. though

Any chance Parimer loses all remaining games...

and there is a lot of players tied in eighth place with a 12w 12 loss record. It's my only chance
