There is a certain probability that one of the 16 participants will withdraw, and then we can take someone from third place (priority goes to the one with more points). Piterius would be first in line, the only one with 3 points and only 3rd place.:eek:
Option 2
Add a certain number of pairs, but it seems that at least 4 pairs need to be added, so that all players who took 3rd place also advance to the playoffs... look at the list of players:
SpiriTT
vbn
Aldegir
Piterius
numOne
Pysche_7
Oelm
KostyaN
In total, we get 12 pairs in the 1/8 finals :D
6 pairs in the 1/4 finals
3 pairs in the 1/2 finals
A final "for three".... just like in the "Seasons" fixed-match tournament.
P.S. The second option is more appealing, although it is more tedious for the organizers, but nevertheless, I do not see any obvious violation of anyone's rights.
