[Tournament] Codex Asynchronous suMmer Swiss (CAMS19)

Imagine rolling zhavier as your round 2 two tournaments in a row.

Oh wait, that happened

At least that’s an indication you won your first match each time bomber. Imagine rolling EricF for your game 1 two tournaments in a row… :sob:

Someone should really yell at the guy running the tournament for such rotten luck… Oh wait :sunglasses::grin:

I only have 1 loss so it could be 4

Yes, for some reason I counted only 1 emerging from the other two matches. No more posting matches on my phone before coffee lol

Just wondering if I should be paired against Legion first since zhavier and I already met in Round 3

  1. They have been paired against the fewest times (normally zero)
  2. Has the same number of losses
1 Like

I’ve already fought everyone left except Persephone, so yea, probably.

I didn’t even realize the priority I --listed-- (copy pasted from past tournaments) had no rematches over number of losses. I spose yes then, bansa v legion and Persephone v zhav. I’ll fix it when I’m back at a computer

EDIT fixed above, apologizes to @bansa @zhavier @Persephone and @Legion

One of the benefits of everyone still playing being eligible to win the whole thing is being able to pair across win records without creating obvious opportunities for bribery.

I’m unclear what the bribery weakness is with matching by win record as a primary, can you elaborate?

I believe Eric refers to how in normal Swiss, you can lose so many games that you’re mathematically unable to make the cut to a bracket, or to win. This means that sometimes players can be bribed to intentionally throw specific games to bolster one player’s win record.

And that brings problems because how are you going to enforce rules against throwing games? What if they’re just not playing well in that game?

With the battle royale/“elimination after three losses” format, anyone who’s playing is in contention to win.
