OFB-12

"Complete nonsense"? And now, should the top three pairs follow suit and also arrange for draws? And should Vintseras and Sanin surrender the victory to their opponents without a fight (they don't have any real chance of making it into the top ten anyway, according to Berger)? And that's it, the top 10 is known, the last round has no competitive meaning, it turns into a mere formality for everyone, not just for us "weaklings" who are just playing to finish the distance. I sincerely hope this doesn't happen. I'm not blaming Zhelena and Kamikaze; it's more of an oversight by the organizer, despite all due respect. Match-fixing is possible even with a ban on draws in the last two rounds, but in that case, the possibility would be much less. It's better to reduce such possibilities rather than encourage them.
