"Winter Evenings"

1) LordZezuk and Dr Motor are playing against each other. The winner advances to play against Oxygen for 1st place, and the loser plays against Lu41k for 3rd place.

If either of these players wins against me, we will have an equal number of losses. One each, to be precise. According to the Double Elimination system, the loser who is vying for the top spot among the winners must defeat the current leader of the winners 2 times without a single loss. This is very simple: the loser has already received their second chance, so why should the winner be treated any differently?

Therefore, if we consider the proposed option, the winner of the LordZezuk - DrMotor match must defeat me twice in a row to win. That's how it would look.

Regarding the second option, I would like to experiment with it further. Winning after two games is a bit disappointing. There isn't enough time to properly explore the map.
