I don't understand anything. What did this player even want? To win the General ranking? From your example, it seems that both he and I played all stages in all versions. He won everywhere except for one version. So, did he mess up the fifth version so badly that he failed in the General category? Is that possible? Punk calculates the War of the Kingdoms ranking using three systems, and if everyone gets such a result, will it be counted? If so, who is to blame – me?
Such a player will win by a landslide in all systems, but he will lose in the virtual one, which proves the absurdity of the virtual idea.
And now, when half of the tournament has passed, they remembered to develop a new system (where were you before – you were here, right? – why were you silent?).
I thought that the VDV Forever system was chosen initially, but it turned out that half of the tournament had passed, and they still hadn't figured out how to determine the winner.
Now, because I'm reading this, it means I like it, hi-hi. Look at you, engaging in mathematical calculations with each other. You yourself wrote that you would prefer to listen to criticism – so listen.
You're not offering criticism, but demagoguery. In some ways, Prorock was definitely right.
Because introducing a new ranking system halfway through the tournament is even worse than changing the rules during the tournament on a given map, IMHO.
This is a gross violation, but it seems inevitable, because no system has been officially adopted. And it doesn't matter when the system was invented. The only way to avoid the violation is to choose the VDV Forever system, because its ranking was immediately recorded in the results table.
Actually, I wouldn't mind if the War of the Kingdoms tournament used PURELY the VDV_forever system to determine the winners.
I don't mind either. It would be fair and, let's say, conciliatory. Then, after the War of the Kingdoms, having other tournaments of the year as well, without personal grievances, we could start discussing the system for the next War of the Kingdoms.
But such a choice must be made by the official organizers.
